That is the key word here "May exist in the next in the near future" Nobody knows if it will still be around after August 1st date comes and passes. So it just may just be a huge cash grab to the victims of fear and pessimistic reasoning against bitcoin for whatever their real agenda is. The creators are located in China after all.
So the drama is having a little twist this time. I could not understand why there are people who seem to have not got tired of all these shenanigans. While I understand that Bitcoin itself is a sea of ideas, opinions and the things in between, sometimes things can get too much for an ordinary guy like me to fully grasp and absorb.
As to Bitcoin Cash, I am predicting that it will just be another of those alternative coin we have in the market. It can exist happily but it will never be the original. Anyway, I have no problem with that if they want to have another coin bearing the name Bitcoin. I read somewhere that this is not actually a split but just another coin more like a spin-off or something...whatever!
