everyone seems to have their own opinion.  BTC is king, Bitcoin  Cash is king, etc.  Who is right?  I have no idea anymore.

Now my concern is that I don't have BCH and what if BTC does indeed go down to a few hundred bucks while BCH rises?

But then I look at this and think they're just pumping it, I know that BCH is more centralized and I don't agree with that...

I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO!   Huh Huh
It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

trade 20% of it for BCH, that way you are safely hedged 1:1.  Simple.

Example:

You own 5 BTC.   Sell 1, that leaves you with 4 BTC and 4 BCH.

exactly what I was considering doing.  but transactions aren't going through, they're backlogged, so I don't even think I'll be able to buy anytime this evening.
