Can bitcoin cash surpass bitcoin in the future?

[jseverson]

Bitcoin drops once while Bitcoin Cash grows and people are starting to question whether Cash will surpass the original? I get that this is hypothetical, but still, this seems like an overreaction.

Personally, I don't think Bitcoin Cash can surpass Bitcoin. All it really does right now is increase the block size. I have no clue what they plan to do with the future because they sure as hell can't keep on increasing block size, but we have lightning which is theoretically one of the best solutions for scaling issues around at the moment. Once that is implemented and once kinks are ironed out, there will be no more reason to choose Bitcoin Cash over the original. We'll just have to endure the shill attacks for now.
