Bcashturd's logic: You don't need to run a node at all!!!1! Uncle Jihan or brother Roger can run all the nodes for you. You know what's even more good?1? They'll do it for freeeeeeeee
Not sure how you can have any 'mind'. If you might have and also have the feeling and enough criminal energy left than go and attack these 'too few' nodes. Have fun and keep up your LN node.

I'll also take the opportunity to rant a bit. Out of those four I mentioned, one is AWOL, one is dead, and the other two are fervent supporters of Bitcoin over BCash. Bitcoin is much more closely aligned with the original cypherpunk principles that elevate privacy and decentralization.
It's not even worth discussing. A forkcoin more or less signed into existence by an agreement of a few commercial enterprises and kept alive by a single conglomerate through the use of dubious tactics... That was aimed at the handful of bcash supporters/sympathizers here. Are you reading all this jbreher? Yep. I simply do not agree that Bitcoin Cash is centralized any more than Bitcoin Segwit in any meaningful way. I realize that there is an oft-repeated narrative that Ver and Wu have made every significant decision in regards to Bitcoin Cash, but this view is utterly ignorant bullshit. And if all y'all would venture outside of this echo chamber of a walled garden, you'd likely realize that latter point as being the truth of the matter You expect way too much from biased ppl. It is a very hard task to get over the typical position talk most investors are trapped into after they ve done a similar hard decision to invest. It is getting into a cult state and such forum cannot help out much here....

^lols...try it... imo...I think we could see alot of red around here...40%-60% drop is possible. The numbers are already calculated on CMC just need to work out the percentages BTC Market Cap is at 36$ Daily Volume is at 38% ETH Market Cap is at 18% Daily Volume is at 11% XRP Market Cap is at 9% Daily Volume is at 5% BCH Market Cap is at 5% Daily Volume is at 3% LTC Market Cap is at 2.5% Daily Volume is at 4.3% Using these numbers BTC is running at 105% of its Market Cap ETH is running at 61% of its Market Cap XRP is running at 55.5% of its Market Cap BCH is running at 60% of its Market Cap LTC is running at 172% of its Market Cap Now as a example I will use U.Cash This has a market cap of $732,848,366 putting it at #37 but the amount being transacted is just $852,434 The Market Cap is 1.4% but trading is only 0.004% This means its running at 0.28% of its Market Cap This is why market cap is a useless metric Absolute market cap is. But relative and dynamics of that is a good one. Changes can be seen quite good here.

BCH next upgrade / roadmap. - the only one that is highly troll-escorted. The last one, the old opcode re-activating will enable BCH to do moar ETH like stuff.... Is it about smart contract feature coming to BCH? Sounds good. Plus one competitor for ETH and most dangerous one. There have been and I'm sure there is some cases when ETH network struggles during high volume transaction where BCH I think should have no problem. ETH does struggle and it is not a block limit issue its a networking issue. Unless you have a really high end server you cannot even sync a new ETH full node anymore is that what you want for BCH That what I said ETH network struggles and as result gas price gets higher under heavy network utilization. On other hand if BCH has good infrastructure network I think it could easily outperform ETH. Esp if you focus more on colored coin ICOs and NOT dilute the scarcity with a myriad of new coins ! Colored Coins are way better in terms of security and atomic trading (for BCH) - and will speed up the scarcity, because they lockup a part of BCH. Go & figure out

Why transaction is instant?
For your quick coffee and all other merchant actions like Medium:
Coinbase Commerce — the Easiest Way for Merchants to Accept Digital Currency
We’re excited to announce Coinbase Commerce, available today for merchants around the world. Merchants everywhere can use Coinbase Commerce to accept Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum and Litecoin payments. What is Coinbase Commerce?
Coinbase Commerce is a new service that enables merchants to accept multiple cryptocurrencies directly into a user-controlled wallet. Our mission at Coinbase is to create an open financial system, so we’ve designed this solution to serve merchants worldwide. Unlike previous merchant products we’ve offered, Coinbase Commerce is not a hosted service, so merchants have full control of their own digital currency.

Always That means the romantic phase has gone and we are already living in ASIC times. Scaling has turned into industrial style. Sorry for telling this news... You have these two different choices NOW: Introduce industry on the 2nd layer (LN, MicroSchrott, BS, Axa, ...) Or Scale up the first layer = on-chain > Miners + their core infrastructure In my view it is very logical choice for what Bitcoiners should vote.

Oh look. THere's a 200 coin ask wall being eaten on Stamp.
Isn't wall observation fun?
You just earned the last "1 in 200 pages ON TOPIC merits".

Despite steadily gaining mainstream popularity, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Cash are still a long way from mainstream acceptability. Payments processor BitPay is working towards solving that problem, first with legacy Bitcoin (BTC) and now with Bitcoin Cash (BCH).
In an interview with CoinGeek.com, BitPay CEO Stephen Pair said there are two main obstacles that hinder blockchain payments acceptance: volatility risk and technical integration. What BitPay does is it simplifies the process for merchants, while also making sure that the retailers are paid fairly.
“Our platform makes it simple for merchants to receive payments from BTC (and soon Bitcoin Cash) wallets with minimal integration work or technical knowledge about Bitcoin. And our merchants get paid exactly what they charge to their bank accounts in local currency, minus a 1% processing fee,” Pair said.

"MICROSOFT: ON-CHAIN FAILS TO MEET CAPACITY NEEDS"
-> 640 kB ought to be enough for anybody ...
Sure - it always depends WHO you ask... but be careful and do not invite new middlemen (BS, MS, ...) - that's not Bitcoin.

Thx - no this attack was already discussed on e.g. reddit/btc I'd say, sure - this is an attac vector, but his risk calc is bit too simple. 1) Price might not be there after 50 blocks and even if you sell for 10 Mio$ -> price might tank 2) Other pools might see this before and could go into (different) action, esp Jihan's like move hashpower over and DDos, ... 3) The attacker has lost all credibility after such thing -> This will not be local to BCH, since we know the external world does not really distinguish between different cryptos -> this falls back to the entire sector!

^ ironic how you cannot see like most all of the older Bitcoin supporters see BS and SW + LN toxic and spread out to other platforms.
All efforts that dillute Bitcoin's inherent scarcity IS toxic by definition.
All space given to other coins by any means is such.
Bitcoin Cash will exactly fix that and yes, it must be kind of toxic i.o. to achieve that.

^ Nope - this is not the Segshit fanboy thread here..
That's censorship your against that since you are always criticize r/Bitcoin for deleting off topic this is supposed to be a free discussion coin Funny - how did I 'delete' or 'censor' ? And no - yours devs and others have shown, that you do not need Segshit for LN. Keep it simple stupid By telling something is not welcome if you had the power to delete you would but you don't so you have to do the next best thing I never said you needed segwit for LN I said you need a bugfix because you removed the one segwit fixed the devs are welcome to try and fix this bug some other way if they wish and then yes LN will work without segwit but it's unlikely to happen. If BCH did decide it needed LN then they will probably just merge the segwit code again as its already proven Not so sure about how realistic these two things are - 1) I had the power to delete AND really execute this (I did not even report this post) AND 2) Bitcoin Cash's protocol gets over-engineered for sake of dev-control - esp having 32MB on the road-map. No - the protocol level must be as simple as possible to maximal-attrac solutions, ppl and devs on top and this means real decentralization, like elementary particles can be found anywhere in this universe and all other things are built on top of these. Only the inherent shape and basic physics are setting up the self-organizational structures - no other protocol (layer 1) devs needed.
