Just a couple of things I find ironic is that he usually presents himself as the champion of the people and that he wants Bitcoin to advance with quicker and cheaper transactions, however usually shows his true form by complaining about the price. Of course he's still so involved with Bitcoin even though he forked out with Bitcoin Cash and where's the quicker and cheaper transaction and mass adoption there? He's been holding Core back for so long and I thought maybe we finally got him of their backs but no.

I don't really think it's about his image vs. his true form. The common thread in Roger's propaganda is just that it's anti-Core. At first I thought he just had a different vision for scaling, and maybe that he legitimately believed that low fees were the key to adoption. But his alignment with Bitmain and Craig Wright and the reality of his major investments in companies like Bitpay make his intentions appear more nefarious.

We can't expect him to get off their backs. Either Bitcoin Cash takes off (unlikely but still far too early to tell) or he stays trolling Core. He hasn't sold his BTC for BCH. He's just telling other people to.

...And I predict that the masses will jump to a more useful altcoin. It could be Bitcoin Cash, it could be Litecoin, it could even be Ethereum when newcomers do enough exploring to see the cool stuff you can do with ETH. That's if they don't ditch cryptocurrencies altogether because of all the infighting between the big-name players. Roger Ver is greedy. So is everybody else who is whinging about how all the forks are going to hurt the value of Bitcoin, if we even have anything that's recognizable as the "original" Bitcoin when it's over.
Bitcoin cash should be named as a shitcoin cash.Unlike bitcoin,you could not use it instead of cash for buying any products.

Bitcoin was created as a decentralized currency and even today,its used as a payment option in many retail shops in bitcoin friendly countries.Bitcoin is considered as a currency as well as a commodity.

But BCH has no role to play in the retail sector.I bet that it would never be accepted as a payment option.It is just being pumped by big hales mostly backed by chinese.

BCH has no unique features to deliver.

Roger ver is the anti christ of bitcoin and we could not expect from  him any thing really for the progress of bitcoin.

I think he's just pro-greed. He's always looking for a new way to make even more money by "cashing" in on the good name of bitcoin. All he's really contributing is money into his own fat wallet.
