[2017-09-18] The Bitcoin Cash Network Continues to Grow With an Ambitious Roadmp

[Terraformer]

It’s been over forty-eight days since the hard fork, and the Bitcoin Cash (BCH) network is alive and well.

Five Different Development Teams Are Working With the Bitcoin Cash Project

As the blockchain’s days continue, BCH developers have been revealing the upcoming plans to improve the cryptocurrency’s protocol. Discussions revolving around bitcoin cash development shows the protocol’s programmers have a very ambitious roadmap for the digital currency’s future. This includes a deep focus on on-chain scaling, and not fearing hard forks down the road in order to upgrade the BCH software. Currently, there are five development teams who say they are working with the BCH project, which include developers from Bitcoin ABC, Unlimited, Nchain, XT, and Classic.

Bitcoin Cash Developers Don’t Fear Hard Forks

At the moment there are lots of ideas being tossed around like a malleability fix without the  additions Segregated Witness adds, and a different difficulty adjustment algorithm. To push these new ideas forward, some BCH developers are not afraid to hard fork the network occasionally.   

“If we want to scale big we’ll have to do a hard fork from time to time,” explains Bitcoin ABC developer Amaury Séchet recent developers mailing list post. “Longer term, we may want to use extension point to add new features, but we are not there yet — more on extension points later on.”

Séchet and many other developers have been discussing quite a few different concepts regarding the future of Bitcoin Cash. The lead Bitcoin ABC developer Séchet mentions a new Merkle tree format and improving light client security with UTXO commitments. Other developers would also like to work on non-consensus changes to improve and make the BCH network more reliable. Development discussions have also revolved around how a hard fork should be coordinated and combining multiple changes in a consensus change.

Well is it just me or it's funny when they say “If we want to scale big we’ll have to do a hard fork from time to time”. I don't think they really have to think about that since they won't need to scale big. Only reason why BCH exists right now is because it's more profitable for miners (sightly at this time, before it was significantly more). No one really uses BCH for transactions or paying anything.

BCrash, or ButtChinHoldings is still languishing near its post-crash lows.

The "devs" can hard-fork all they want, it won't magically produce anyone using it for anything other than dumping.

In fact, I'd like to thank the ego-centric idiots behind BCrash, since it has convinced miners that Segwit2x, their latest attempt to be complete douchenozzles, is a breach of their agreement and they are pulling support.

So thank you, Jihan and Ver, your stupid bullshit has finally come to a close, and they deserve every single bit of derision they get.

I am waiting for bitcoin cash network continues to grow, back to over $1000, but it's a long way ahead.
Most people do not consider bcash better than bitcoin even though with 8Mb blocksize, whenever it rise up, will be dumped within 1-3 days.
That's why bcash doesn't has a good chance to surpass 1k prices.
