As i see bitcoincash was very fast and reach to the 3rd place in coinmarketcap in just only a few months do you guys think that bitcoincash can overtake bitcoin in the future? How long do you think?

If it does, we're all doomed puppets to be controlled.

The idea of BCH is nice, but, it's controlled and propped up by basically 1 entity which flys in the face of the whole reason crypto's became popular to begin with.

What do you mean were doomed puppets? For now i see bch was got a big marketcap in just a few months only i think there’s a good reason why some bitcoin holder move to BCH. and we dont know that reason

In my opinion, it is very unlikely  (almost impossible) that an altcoin, especially Bcash, will overtake Bitcoin as the number one cryptocurrency. And the market cap doesn't mean anything, it's just the price of the crypto times the circulating supply. For example, If Bcash price goes down to 1k or less, then Ripple will take 3rd place, does that mean Ripple will be the #1 crypto in the future? No, why? because it's an altcoin. No once cares about the market cap, volume of payments / volume of trasactions are more important.

I think it's very difficult for BCH to surpass Bitcoin, but it can happen but it will take longer than expected.

BTC and BCH, BCD, SBTC are totally unrelated, BCH, bcd, sbtc can only be altcoin, forever.

Even though bitcoincash is fast it doest mean that he can already take over bitcoin. We already saw bitcoin is strong starting from 2009 until now bitcoin is so strong and vulnirable. Bitcoincash is just starting with hes career in this cryptoworld. There are more problem that he need to solve before he can reach bitcoin now.

Bitcoin cash has no chance in the near future to overtake the original bitcoin. To make this happen, the original bitcoin must accumulate many flaws and do not correct them. That there was a similar situation for the current one, when bitkoyn became very slow with hung transactions and so on. That is why recently there were so many forks, because the original bitcoin could no longer cope with the difficulties that had arisen. However, soon a lightning network will be introduced into the initial bitcoyne, which should solve all bitcoin problems and then bitkoyn cash will not have a chance to overtake it. It is possible that when the original bitkoyn eliminates its shortcomings with the network of lightning, bitkoyn cash will be lowered in price.

Dr. Adoni said on December 20th BTC and BCH would both be 10k soon then both go to 50k.

His window of time was 2 weeks to 2 months.

Within 48 hours of his opinion BTC went shortly to 11k.

I posted link to his opinion that I respect as someone that covers crypto for multiple crypto sites.

He says the fact Coinbase put it on their exchange makes the public accept it soon as 1 to 1 value.

When he wrote his opinion the trade history of BCH was 20 to 1 value, now it's 20% to 22% in value no longer 5%.

So read his opinion which is contrary to most here and keep a watch on value ratio.

If he's right, bch is the play short term.

It's something to behold for BCH to have reached an height that it took not a small journey for bitcoin to reach but the truth is that the ground work was done for it by bitcoin. Whether it will take over by bitcoin or not, the future will be the determining factor and the entire community. The moment bitcoin is able to resolve the issue of long confirmation time, I am sure it will be more difficult for bch to take over.

Sorry, I do not see bitcoin cash overtaking bitcoin in future. The so called 8 MB block size being used as the selling point is only a temporary fix, the same problem being faced currently by bitcoin is only postponed by Bitcoin Cash as it will resurface later, when there are lots of users and the bitcoin cash mining space gets over saturated.

Anything is possible, but for me the deal breaker is that it's more difficult to convert to fiat than btc.   

Bitcoin Cash indeed has the potential to one day overtake bitcoin as the world's most valuable cryptocurrency unless the developers make sure they fix the issue that made the split happen in the first place, and that is increasing the block size which in turn will reduce the fees.

I would not have expected that. Bitcoin Cash does indeed quite well compared to BTC, even though there are many manipulative overtake attempts by the community. As Bitcoin is currently facing a lot of scalability issues, this favors Bitcoin Cash. However, Bitcoin is still the most discussed and established coin. If there is any issue with Bitcoin in the future, Bitcoin Cash would indeed be a suitable successor.
I wonder, when the Bitcoin Core developers are finally addressing the scalability issues. Are there any plans?

Cryptos are just speculation/day trader toys. If you want proof of that, use the last month of volatility as an example. Any commodity that can increase or decrease in value by 50% in a week or two is being completely controlled by speculation. If these same traders decide they want to speculate on something else, like BCH, then it will overtake bitcoin. It’s simple as that.

Oh, don’t try to tell me bitcoin is this great new money that everyone is spending like mad creating the volume. That is provably false. Bitcoins use as money for eCommerce is dropping not increasing.

Morgan Stanley‘s DBA business analyst James Faucette backed his argument with this chart of online retailers who accept bitcoin, titled "Virtually no acceptance, and shrinking":

If you really think that bitcoin cash is much more better than bitcoin, then you really have a mess inside your head... came on, how the fuck could it be better than bitcoin? You seriously do not understand anything guys..

Bitcoin is a pro player in this market while as of now Bitcoincash is a newbie.Speculating anything may not be wise,but as of now BTC seems nowhere around Bitcoin.

It is very impossible for bcash to surpass bitcoin because of so many reasons. A lot of coins can even replace bitcoin cash in terms of its use but it will never replace bitcoin. Also, the fork of bitcoin cash doesn't have any specific goal other than to replace bitcoin long ago because of its popularity. If ever bcash did surpass bitcoin, then the market will be monopolized and that will be unfortunate for us traders.

Before it was replaced by Ripple when almost all crypto's are on red but it's now replaced again by Bitcoin cash.


No and no and no.

if it can then i'd sell everything and walk away. it would prove that bitcoin was a failure if a fork put together by a bunch of crooks with a lot of money and mining power can usurp the original chain.

just imagine what government level resources could do if they turned their attention to it. nothing in crypto would be a safe enough bet.

if it was the organic choice of the users then that's one thing, but the blockchain spamming, shilling, wash trading and coordinated attacks with bitcoin difficulty changes tell us that is anything but the case.

Well, if Roger Ver keeps going on on mainstream TV telling all the idiots with money and with not so much money as well, to buy BCash because it's the real Bitcoin, we may see it go #2 rather soon. Don't under estimate the power of marketing, and don't underestimate the power of idiots and manipulators.

I hope Bitcoin never loses #1 spot, it would be a disaster for crypto. It would show that with enough resources, you can manipulate a market to overtake Bitcoin's marketcap with all the FUD nonsense about small blocks, Core, segwit, and even buying a fake satoshi for the gig. Pathetic.

Bitcoin cash may sweep some value of bitcoin but it will never be the true bitcoin.

If you think it may happen it may be a good idea to stock up on some bitcoin cash.

Bitcoin Cash is a test. Test for Bitcoin. I have to agree with the user "European Central Bank" - if a bunch of greedy guys can bring down Bitcoin, one can only imagine what a coordinated attack from governments and central banks could do.

Bitcoin Cash jumped up to #3 due to the difficulty for Bitcoin Cash lowered and all the miners jumped to that chain. That's one reason why the Bitcoin network was clogged up, along with the flood of transactions for the holidays. The miners jump back and forth to try to capitalize on their profits, to the detriment of both chains. Once its profitable to mine Bitcoin again they'll jump back onto Bitcoin chain and Bitcoin Cash will drop down again. Been a cycle since it started in August.

There is no way that bitcoin cash could be better than bitcoin, came on guys, bitcoin cash is just a forked coin, and it is managed by roger and the mining pools, if you really think that it could be much more better than bitcoin in the future, you should really try to understand how bitcoin works and why it has been attacked by bcash lately.

The only thing that came out of my mind is bcc is controlled by some big names and if this coin surpassed btc then we might lose the essence of crypto as it can be played by some people behind, I still believed that bitcoin will survived and bcc will remain as an alt who's trying to gain much attention.

I no longer accept BCore Coin without an additional $200 fee.

Bitcoin Cash is Bitcoin as far as I'm concerned.

BCore has been privately under attack by its own community since October when the Wiki came under attack by MidnightMagic.

Bcore is being dropped by services and charities all over the internet.  Pineapple Fund recently dropped Bitcoin Core as well.  (https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/7lnu9w/pineapple_fund_update_homes_in_haiti_education/?st=jbmj0xiz&sh=1a425cb9)

When you can't even give away something that is supposed to be money... you have a problem.

Absolutely not, bitcoin cash can't take the bitcoins' place.
I can't understand how people can be so easily mislead and fed with false information. Bitcoin cash maybe has its moment of glory but this will not last for long and it will burst like bubble. It's just another fork product that has no future. I can't believe that some tiny small profit is everything that people are interested in. Think with your own head, don't let  be misguided.

I certainly agree. I am not really updated with crypto information everyday but I also think that a copy-cat is still a copy-cat and won't really last long. Sooner or later it will find its real place in the crypto world.

No bitcoin is the king of the crypto market and Bitcoin cash is next to the bitcoin. And I don't think it is easy for the bitcoin cash to replace the bitcoin because the bitcoin's demand and popularity have made the people crazy about it and now depend on that BCH will take a huge time to come and stand next to the bitcoin's place.

I don't plan on accumulating bch but I did like the low fees

BCH will not overtake BTC because the community support that BTC has is unmatched to any other coin.

BTC is the reason for so many cryptocurrencies today and no matter the scaling problem that is affecting it right now, it is here to stay. And remember that BTC is not just a cryptocurrency or just a coin, it is an idea.

I am usually an open-minded person, but i find my self unable to accept any argument defending BCH.
A cloned coin can never overtake the original one.
BCH is not even a clone, it is centralized and censored which make really unuseful and can't compete with Bitcoin.
Furthermore, BCH devs do not even have enough imagination to use their own name.
BitcoinCrash will not overtake Bitcoin

no I think its not , bitcoin always be the king forever  ;D ......

Basically, anything surrounding Theymos is GROSSLY censored and controlled by very few people.  I firmly believe that at least a handful of those users that control things are government agents attempting to hurt/destroy cryptocurrency in general.

I just find it so hard to believe that you people can't see this clear as day.

Bitcoin Cash is a very good opportunity for investment, I think Mr. Ver and co will actively pump its price in 2018. But after all it is just a fork of the original coin (like Litecoin is), they cannot survive without Bitcoin, but can make money for the hodlers.

bitcash is a scam, i call it bitcash because it has nothing to do with bitcoin. Dont fall for it. It's a classic pump and dump game where the losers are the bitcash holders. They will milk the btc blockchain with high fees. Then the sheep will scatter to bitcash, and they will milk over there, then they will abandon bitcash, and improve btc. it's really dumb

BCH is an altcoin and I will always view it as one. I think it will still have long-term relevance since Ver is spending a lot of money on paid shills to keep it in the spotlight.

It's a complete scam by questionable characters who find themselves behind it so i wouldn't waste my time talking about it. There's not going to be any fork better than bitcoin and they earlier they understand it the better for all those guys running BCH because original bitcoin is getting ever popular.

I see far more Bitcoin Core shills than ANYTHING.

I absolutely believe Bitcoin Core is being attacked from the inside out by someone who is massive and smart.


Bitcoin Core can't even be used in the current state it is in and even if it improves tomorrow... why would anyone have any confidence that the fees aren't going to be through the roof the next day.

Something needs to change.

Realy? If bitcoincash is scam why he is top 3 coin in CMC? Will i dont realy care about it because i dont have bitcoincash in my hold now. I am holding bitcoin only amd some altcoin so far dont have BCH.

I think bitcoin cash is not going to takeover bitcoin in near future as bitcoin is real bitcoin not bitcoin cash.  As bitcoin will continue to develop more and more as like different fork and become more and more advance

I do not find this possible untill bch did find its place like bitcoin everywhere as on exchnages and other places. We see that every coin is tradeable to bitcoin on exchnages but no pair is available on any exchange so i think it is not going to go above bitcoin

BCH is just only staring so we still dont know yet. The main reason why BCH dont have a pair in some other exchnages its because he is still new in the outside world maybe a few years so lets see what will happen next. I am not a fan of BCH i dont have BCH in my holder also. I have only bitcoin but i was only thinking like this im just curious.

Bitcoin is dying its because of this f$&cking fee. That was too much already i think that was the main reason why some developers of bitcoin find a ways  and switch to another new coin its because the fee every transaction is too high that if you have transacting a small amount you are only paying higher fee.

There are a lot of comments from the trading community that BitcoinCash can replace Bitcoin in the future but I do not believe this. If all communities agree to leave Bitcoin, this may happen, but the community is still more interested in Bitcoin than Bitcoin.

In my opinion, I think this is not possible. At present, Bitcoin Cash is not strong enough to beat Bitcoin. The growth rate is also quite fast and Bitcoin Cash has taken the 3rd place, which is very good but to beat Bitcoin it needs to be more than that, it also needs to overcome another major competitor is ETH . Both Bitcoin and ETH are booming, potential is expanding in the future. However, in the distant future no one knows what, everything can happen :D

I guess it won't overtake Bitcoin. Because Bitcoin has much bigger market cap than BCH.

I got fed up with waiting a week for transaction or 3 hours for 20% fee. Bitcoin cash, once you have used it. You will never go back to core.

More and more will find this out.

“Segwit” the savior said core a year ago....nope.....they say lightning will fix everything. Well, they lied once, so until proven they can tell the truth, it’s another lie.

I am not understanding according to which thought you have asked the following question. Coin Market cap or price of coins?  ;D don't mind
Thanks

BCash is a centralised and manipulated altcoin pumped by scammer Roger Ver.

People making more Doge tx's than Bcash. BCash blocks are almost empty just pathetic.


This is a miners problem, if the Chinese mining cartel did their job the mempool would be bone dry. Also use Segwit. Combine those 2 and you'll enjoying those $0,10-$1 fee's.

The Bitcoin network works just fine, 2018 will bring more miners and Segwit adoption, just relax.

Bitcoin cash is just an example how someone with a lot of cash can influence things. Bcash is basically just an altcoin which does not solve any of the critical issues. Block increase will only postpone the problem and is by no means final solution.

Yes it's true that bitcoin cash now is 3rd in CMC but I don't think that it can overtake bitcoin in future again it can be.
There are 70% /30%*chance to replace bitcoin by bitcoin cash.

I was hoping that too that segwit could lower the bitcoin transaction after this segwit we can transact more lower transaction juts like before. At this currenct setuation only bitcoin miner are happy because they are the one who realy binefits that fee.

Yeah bitcoin transaction is very much crowding  and segwit is our hope to correct all things , because it seems that bitcoin transaction becoming difficult and because of that higher fees will occur ,and we can say it is the start of monopoly why because people seems not able to find some altcoins to compete BTC.

The high fee is killing almost everyone with little amount of hodlings and also the fees on markets are freaking high AF! Imagine a 100k to 200k satoshi fee for every transaction. Lets what will happen on 2018. ;D

Bitcoincash is the only fork i liked so far from bitcoin and with the 8 mb fork it will run smoothly for some time before the network getting stuck,so it is a good solution for now and with the transaction charges of bitcoin are higher,people are shifting to bitcoin cash and so is the reason the price started rallying.

I think the BCH will rise for a while. But do not forget that this is just an altcoyin, a modified copy of bitcoin. Perhaps, in a year, its cost will be 10% of the cost of BTC. But a sad result is possible.

I dont see something like this happening.

IMO, Bitcoin will remain "King of the castle"  - I think it will more than likely increase in value considerably and people will end up using it as a store of value and also for large purchases like houses/cars etc..  other altcoins like Bch / Eth / Dash / Monero / etc... will be used for normal transactions like retail purchases and day to day purchases.

That's not gonna happen. Never. Bitcoin Cash is not better  then bitcoin. This is the coin that his developers call "harfork of bitcoin" but that's not true. Coin that built on lies

Can the student surpass the master
I think it's unlikely for that to happen bitcoin is in the market since 2009 and it's evolving it's gonna be hard for bch to surpass it

That bitcoincash guys are aiming to cause others buy bcash. This will never happen. It's now at number four on the list, but we will probably see it at number 10 or below. It will lose significant value on the market soon.

that's the main upside of this ridiculous penny alt pump. anything that pushes bcash further into nowhere is fine by me. pretty soon the junk proof of work coins will be semi forgotten in favor of junk proof of how stupid pumpers are tokens.

In my opinion, this is not possible because after all, it is only a fork, and if you can easily exceed bitcoin, then the cryptocurrency market will collapse.

I'm super glad I sold my bch at $3400 and converted it to btc and ether.   Go ether!

If Bitcoin will not solve the issue of the astronomical fees it now has, then BCH could well overtake it. Even though, there are remakes" of BTC which are technically even better, like BTX.

well I have read that article you posted. I was not familiar with Dr Adoni's previous work. But I was able to quickly fill out the gaps - he provided many links and banners in his website. Amongst others, about his ecounter with Grey Alien (I am dead serious - open the link above if you don't believe me). For that reason only, I would not follow his advice if I were you.

I dont think that b cash can overtake btc in future because btc cash has made some moves that damaged its image and resulted in short term profit.

Bitcoin Cash is effectively Bitcoin as designed and as it worked from 2009-2012.

Bitcoin Segwit (BTC) has become a Blockstream-captured frankencoin despite its high market cap. 

It may stay high in value but it's not the peer to peer money I wanted.  Future belongs to BCH.

If more merchants start accepting BCH, then it will likely do very well.

I received an “airdrop” of BCH from the fork, which three of my wallets now support.  BCH is cheap to send, that’s a big plus.

Other than my comments above, I have NO idea if BCH will increase in value vs. BTC.

bitcoin cash is bitcoin.

$3,400 was really overpriced at the time. Good for you. But you might want to convert high fee coin back to peer to peer electronic cash.

Go ether!

In order to evaluate bitcoin in cash, we will need even more time. I remember how, after the first of August, everyone was indignant and scolded the bitcoin that was separated in cash. Now, I see, he has already begun to be treated more loyal. At the same time, when there were big problems with transactions in the initial bitcoin, at first these problems were even feared to affect, so as not to damage the image of the bitcoin itself. Now the problems with bitcoin have already been recognized everywhere, and they also openly began to resent them more often and switch to using altcoyins. It is difficult to predict how future events will develop. While they say that with the introduction of lightning in the bitcoin of the network, there are also problems and, perhaps, problems for bitcoin will remain for a long time. In this situation, bitcoin may well be raised in cash, which lacks the disadvantages of the original bitcoin.

BTC, as the faucet of crypto digital assets, has been deeply rooted in the hearts of people. BTC's crisis will not come from external competition COINS but from within. To some extent, BCC is a product of the internal conflict of BTC.
In the future, if BTC continues to make mistakes and continue to differentiate, it will weaken itself, and the result is to put the new currency like BCC into the dragon chair.

I'm going to hodl some "just in case".

I think it could be bitcoin cash overtake bitcoin, because bitcoin cash is a refinement of bitcoin, but for now bitcoin is still number 1, maybe in the future a better altcoin than bitcoin can overtake bitcoin

BCH has such a value just because of the hype it has been created before, during and after the fork. There are far better improvements of Bitcoin out there, like Bitcore (BTX) which has done a little known "soft" fork of Bitcoin.

I personally did not see that bitcoin cash ever took third place in the CoinMarketCap table. He seems to be constantly in fourth place, ethereum and ripple compete for second and third place. As for bitkoin himself in cash, he really has a lot of chances now if he does not become head of the crypto currency, then it is much higher and raise his rating, considering that the initial bitcoin is very sick now and in fact does not fully perform its main function of the payment facility. Bitcoin cash is devoid of these shortcomings, but many of his very beginnings of his appearance are criticized for being significant but centralized.

I do not think that Bitcoin Cash will take over Bitcoin but to be honest I am pretty surprised that it did end up third on the coin market cap. As of this writing Bitcoin cash is at 4th with Ripple, Ethereum and Bitcoin on 3rd to 1st respectively. If Bitcoin cash can take over Ethereum then I guess many people need to reevaluate if Bitcoin cash can took over Bitcoin, but as of now this will be merely impossible.

It looks like BitPay is enabling Bitcoincash. Here is their latest update dated 26th Jan 2018:

https://blog.bitpay.com/bitpay-plugin-updates/


If they can get a wide number of merchants to accept BCH, then that is bullish for the coin.

Bitpay is the owner, I believe, of the Copay wallet.  Which I presume very soon means I will get another piece of the BCH "airdrop" from the August 1 split.  I already have some I transferred some BCH (from an online wallet) to Copay, and am waiting on being able to use it.  It's THERE at Copay, but no way right now to get it out.

[PLEASE correct me if I am wrong about Bitpay owning Copay]

Yes, if Bitpay does start accepting it, more merchants almost certainly will "accept" BCH, via Bitpay.

*   *   *

I also was informed by DigitalBitbox that they too will soon support BCH, which means (for me) more BCH.

Looking kinda good.......   :)

The bitcoincash is a pure manipulated cryptocurrency and despite of its place in the coinmarketcap, i don't think that it stands a chance to replace bitcoin because bitcoin cash is just an altcoin and the lightning network for bitcoin is coming so there is no reason for the bitcoin cash to be the replacement for bitcoin because bitcoin core developers are now solving the problems which makes bitcoin cash useless.

It's very possible since lightning network implementation on the bitcoin network is quite slow. Faster transaction confirmations is king nowadays as people are very strict with their time, as it should be. Once bitcoin can guarantee faster transactions, it will soar.

No matter the level of growth of bitcoincash in the coin market it can not over take bitcoin not in any time soon, bitcoin is the king of crypto and all other cryptocurrencies depend on bitcoin success to survive bitcoin is the foundation of their success. Just pay close attention when bitcoin price rise you will see the price of other coins rising and when the price of bitcoin drop you also see all other cryptocurrencies drooping in price.

Ladies and gentlemen,  I suggest you zoom out and take a look at the big picture.  BTC has the first mover advantage yes but has seriously been messing up with the way they're going about things.   This isn't to say that BCH isn't doing the very same thing, but simply in a different way.   We're soon going to see many more millions of people join us in our little decentralized universe.   This WILL have an effect that none of us can foresee at this moment.   Whether it will be BTC, BCH or something else that both consumers, merchants and all other players deem easiest, safest, fastest to use / etc, is anyone's guess.   The door is completely open for any project to deliver something of value to the world right now to help it claim it's stake as top dog.   Sometimes we have to step out of our box to take a look at everything that's going on.   I reckon it's smart to do this every few months here with the speed things are currently moving.  Try it, it might help some of us breathe a little easier / better, too.  My 2 cents.

As we can see now bitcoin was deeply crushing from 19k to 8k USD now. In the other side BCH was still remain in his price. I am not a fan of BCH and i dont have any BCH holding in my wallet too but i think bitcoincash is also a good investment like bitcoin. Its just in my openion.

 But i believe it can surpass bitcoin.

tell us why you think this.

i cannot one find single compelling reason why that would be possible. the current trough is a much needed breather for exchanges and other services to get their stuff together and start using bitcoin's blockchain sensibly. batching and more segwit will clean up a huge amount of the overload we had last year.

i'm not super convinced that lightning networks will solve much, but bitcoin is getting more developments all the time. bcash is not doing much other than sitting there attempting to con people into using it.

Everything can happen including the opportunity to replace bitcoin, the thing that makes me like bitcoin cash is the speed and the cost is cheaper than bitcoin, this is certainly a mainstay of bitcoin cash to replace bitcoin someday.

The speed and cost of bitcoin is just fine currently (I assume you mean a bitcoin transaction fee when you say 'cost'). And the transaction fee gets high when there are a lot of people transacting Bitcoin. In the same conditions (that is, if BCH were as popular as BTC) BCH transaction fee would go to the moon too. Which, of course, will never happen, because BCH is just a minor coin, one of the many attempted copy-cats and copy-pastes of Bitcoin.

BCH is probably the best play for shorting.

It can be happen . actually anything can happen . may be it take some few years . BCH transaction fees is low than btc yet. Bitcoin is a safe place right now. $8000 . BCH can overtake bitcoin . but bitcoin may will go far . actually nothing is predictable.

Bitcoin cash is a product of centralization. Transcending bitcoin is a false proposition. I don't think it will surpass bitcoin in the future. Bitcoin is recognized by the world. Bitcoin cash is only recognized by a small number of people. :)

 it is very unlikely  (almost impossible) that an altcoin, especially Bcash, will overtake Bitcoin as the number one cryptocurrency. And the market cap doesn't mean anything, it's just th my opinion, it is very unlikely  (almost impossible) that an altcoin, especially Bcash, will overtake Bitcoin as the number one cryptocurrency. And the market cap doesn't mean anything, it's just the price of the crypto times the circulating supply. For example, If Bcash price goes down to 1k or less, then Ripple will take 3rd place, does that mean Ripple will be the #1 crypto in the future? No, why? because it's an altcoin. No he crypto times the circulating supply.

In my opinion, bitcoin cash is the most successful fork of bitcoin where many big developers who support such fork like bitcoin.com so I do not worry bitcoin cash will fall. But, I do not think that bitcoin cash will overtake bitcoin positions in CMC, it takes a huge volume of transactions to increase investor confidence as well as improve ranking positions in CMC

bcash is in an interesting position right now. if they really want to go places they need to start bringing things to the table beyond just being low fee. let's see some real development and a real reason why anyone should be using it.

and since it forked before the mad rush they can no longer roll out the 'you have both so it doesn't matter which wins' narrative any more. there'll be millions of bitcoin users who don't have any bcash and they'll need an extremely compelling reason to consider buying any. i don't see anything yet.

I see BCH as a very risk investment. There are times it pumps like crazy however it will not be real BTC and value will  not pass BTC.

BTC is still the daddy. Sure they could try again but this will just accelerate BTCs timeline for upscaling. This failed coup has only strengthened BTCs position and proved its resilience.

I do not find this possible untill bch did find its place like bitcoin everywhere as on exchnages and other places. We see that every coin is tradeable to bitcoin on exchnages but no pair is available on any exchange so i think it is not going to go above bitcoin

for me bitcoin cash is only another altcoin that only reached this high position on cmc, because of he had "bitcoin" in the name. without it, i think this fork would not be so successful and i hope, bch will never replace the real bitcoin.

Maybe for BHC its bit hard to overtake bitcoins. Even it happen it will take some long time maybe few years. But still i am with bitcoin. I haven't use bitconcash yet but its trading is increasing for btc. It was once pumped to 0.5 BtC but that was only for 30 mins or so. Other than that its is steady between 0.013 to 0.02 BTC.

No it will not overtake Bitcoin ever. Even if it has gains exceeding the gains of Bitcoins sometimes, it has the losses exceeding the losses of Bitcoin too. It will always be around 10% value of Bitcoin.

I treat bitcoin cash is fake bitcoin ever since it is released. But honestly I think it has done great comparing to many other forks. I wouldn't hold it for long term so I believe it won't overtake btc. But it may stay in top 10.

Fast-forward to present day: BCH has fallen to #4 without much progress in terms of market penetration or real-world adoption. Roger Ver stands at the brink of lunacy and the guy that wrote this post hasn't visited the site since May.

Meanwhile bitcoin's dominance of the total market cap space is on the rise, moving from about 38% at the time of Jonald's posting to its current 47%, with many of those %s coming from BCH.

I don't believe in bcash. especially with roger ver. sooner or later bcash will drop soon. what they are doing? they can only compare bcash with bitcoin core only without making innovations that attract people's attention to bcash

The question is not whether someone believes in bitcoin in cash, or not. Crypto-currency, it is, in fact, one of the types of business. And it should be approached as a kind of business, and not as a religion. We will simply give the opportunity to exist. different branches of bitcoins. Time will tell whether they are worthy to exist or not. If we compare the technical characteristics of many forks, then many of them far exceed the original bitcoin. For example, I like the fork of bitcoin - BTC-2. It has fast and almost free transactions, monero anonymity, a large level of scalability and so on. Of course, let's see what happens next with Bitcoin. Forks will grow only on the background of a drop in the popularity of bitcoin.

I don't locate this conceivable untill bch found its place like bitcoin wherever as on exchnages and different spots. We see that each coin is tradeable to bitcoin on exchnages yet no combine is accessible on any trade so I think it won't go above bitcoin

You can create tokens now in BCH, very similar to ETH, but not fully trustless afaik, which is good, since token creators should do some kind of PoW on their own behalf. No spam coins expected with it.

So all in all if world wide adoption should happen with equal security (on chain) I only see Bitcoin Cash being able to fulfill all needs a crypto currency could provide.

Give it some time.

I have never heard of that BTC-2 nor I am able to google it. Can you please provide more info and maybe their webpage and explorer? Moreover, I don't see it listed on forkdrop.io either.

BTC, as the spigot of crypto computerized resources, has been profoundly established in the hearts of individuals. BTC's emergency won't originate from outer rivalry COINS yet from inside. To some degree, BCC is a result of the interior clash of BTC.
Later on, if BTC keeps on committing errors and keep on differentiating, it will debilitate itself, and the outcome is to put the new cash like BCC into the mythical beast seat.

What B.S. Nobody uses Bcash for anything. Like most other altcoins (with the exception of Ethereum and maybe Ripple), 95% of its value is purely speculative. Nobody gives a shit about bcash's "bigger blocks." They sure as hell don't get filled. The average bcash block size is much smaller that bitcoin's!

Bitcoin evolved to adapt to a problem and bcash is now just another useless fork attempting to "cash" in on the good name of bitcoin. Roger Ver should be ashamed of himself, but much like his cohort Craig "Not Satoshi" Wright, both people are biologically incapable of feeling shame.

I think Cho is possible, but in the very distant future.Bitcoin is the first and most popular cryptocurrency, and monta Bitcoincash, appeared recently.

we know that the bch price is still far behind the BTC, around 12x the current bch price. this is a very big value and difficult to catch, even though it can potentially occur in the future. but if bch can overtake BTC, is that the reason and purpose to make bch better than BTC?
