bcc may overtake btc just as eth did with etc

[thadeius]

This is comparing apples and oranges.

The Ethereum hard fork did not change the code base or protocol in the least bit. It was as a result of the DAO hack in the early stages of the network. Whether this was the right thing to do remains up for debate.

The Bitcoin hard fork will change the protocol of Bitcoin. It arises from a long had philosophical debate about the true purpose and future of Bitcoin.

etc was ethereum and stuck with code is law. eth was the new hardfork that the majority was against. could be that bcc overtakes btc right? I mean if citibank cuts ties with btc that is...

Don't jump into conclusions.
We still don't know what will happen, yet.

Seems like the majority will wait after august 1st, then go to BCC sides or the other way around.
But, anything's possible.

I don't think so because the btc is more popular now than the event that happen with eth and etc because the cryptocurrency that time is not that popular yet but now I think that bcc will not overtake the bitcoin it is just a new coin just like other coins.

ETC was the gimp chain in the ETH/ETC split, ETH didn't overtake ETC, it was always the main chain with most of the exchange support, mining power and higher price.
BCC will be the gimp chain in the BTC/BCC split. It won't overtake BTC, BTC will always be the main chain with most of the exchange support, mining power and higher price.

So apart from being 100% wrong, good point.

I understand the main factor that why it happened with ETH , in the ETH there was problem in the technology that was not much better according to the public need features to handle by the developers , so they replaced the ETC by ETC and New coin into ETH .
But here the conditions for the bitcoin is totally different , Here the new coin will be BCC not will be name BTC ( according to your logic ) , because the people mostly have the trust with the bitcoin not with the new coin .
And also here the users majority of bitcoin user are more and also there are many people who even don't know about the fork and putted thier btc in third party wallet for 3-4 years investment .
So here no case will arise where the team.of blockchain change the coin name or new by old .

The difference is that ETH had majority support from the start while this time the fork (BCC) has almost no support. In fact a majority of people seem only interested in dumping it as fast as possible.

It's completely different situation.
Eth was created as a result of the DAO "hack".

In the btc case, it's a dispute between the developers and the miners.

Its more a dispute between the community and miners.

That's not going to be happened, Perhaps your BCC believers because your saying this things. Actually your question is not helpful to anyone here in this forum. Your just showing that your not a true bitcoin enthusiast/believers, instead of encouraging your mate in this forum your giving others confusion and etc. Please excuse me for this things.

I have created a poll to see how the community views the fork and the future of bitcoin. Please answer the poll so we can have a statistically significant number of responses.

I am trying to be fair on that poll and included as many answers as I could think of. I will keep the poll open until a couple of hours before the Aug 1st fork. Let's see if the wisdom of the forum is indicative of how it will turn out.

Thank you for participating.
