Bitcoin CASH will take over BTC ?

[stomachgrowls]

Do you see a pump and dump happening in BCH right now? or is it really taking over Bitcoin? How do you think will it affect other coins when BCH successfully replaced BTC as the top cryptocurrency

Dont get caught yourself on the hype and talking about BCH overtaking BTC is an impossible thing and have you seen the recent price of BCH? It is settled down already and now the people are already going back to BTC as of now which you can see for yourself regarding on their price movements when you do tried up to look into their charts and compare them.

I think BCC/H is a pump and dump but not in the traditional sense, I expect the price to stabilise about 1k usd. I do not think it will replace BTC, the two can co-exist and BTC will regain some dominance once a scalability solution is found and agreed on.

I think it's hard for BCC to replace BTC, simply because btc is the first and the most powerful coin at the moment. Hype of BCC will gone soon, I believe. But hype of BTC? It will always remain. Also BCC is falling right now, the hype is disappearing I think

[anasso]

thanks to it's 8 mb bolock, BCH has the ability to be more centralized by big miner pools than BTC!

this is the reason why Roger Ver and Bitmain are supporting Bitcoin cash!

no crypto can replace Bitcoin he"s the KING of crypto world.

It's too early to say that the bitcoin in cash will replace the original bitcoin. But there is such a tendency and the probability exists in the future. It is difficult to predict how this will affect the other currency, if this happens. Most likely, it will not greatly affect them. This is a struggle within the bitcoins.

[BarkingHawk]

No it won't.  Bitcoin Cash is yet another attempt to profit off of BTC's success that will inevitably lead nowhere for the alt.  There is only one King.

Fully agreed, but I'm impressed at the level of manipulation that Jihan Wu and Roger Ver and company are employing. Here's a thread from earlier today where they are both shilling for Ethereum over Bitcoin. Vitalik even joined in on the BTC-bashing:

Vitalik is both a genius and a class act. That’s why I sold a portion of my BTC for Ethereum in addition to lots of Bitcoin Cash.

I also heard that ETH idea should have be done on top of Bitcoin. Some arrogant people drive him out. Is that true?

The very earliest versions of ETH protocol were a counterparty-style metacoin on top of primecoin. Not Bitcoin because the OP_RETURN wars were happening at the time and... ...given what certain core devs were saying at the time, I was scared that protocol rules would change under me (eg. by banning certain ways to encode data in txs) to make it harder, and I did not want to build on a base protocol whose dev team would be at war with me. And OP_RETURN *did* end up getting censored down to 40 bytes. So I think it's fair to say that this willingness to compromise protocol immutability to achieve a desired outcome in a particular application (hmm, sound familiar?) made ETH on BTC even then a nonstarter. That said, perhaps they did a service. Back then I never would have imagined that fees would ever be allowed to rise above $0.20.

Obviously, Vitalik takes some joy in seeing BCH pumped to #2 in the charts. The fact that he congratulated three people -- Jihan Wu, Roger Ver, and the one anonymous BCH developer -- for the pump shows how centralized it is.

Anyway, the Bcash hard fork is imminent, so expect more manipulation soon!

[chefcryptoshark]

It will never happen. Bitcoin is the king. Bitcoincash is pumping because of some news and whales out there. Also because of the fork tomorrow. It will never happen that Bitcoin cash will take over BTC. Trust me. I trust Bitcoin all the way.

This.

There was a long period of stable, low pricing that allowed whales to accumulate on the DL. The sales pitch by the whales is the same in the wake of Segwit2x: 1) if approved, it signals that BCH is part of the future, and 2) if failed, BCH is the future. Either way, there would be a run, and gazillions of $ to be made.

Oh, to be a whale....

[Lenat]

My guess is it won't in the short term but long term core does need to step up it's game because it's starting to rot on the inside.

In the longer run anything is still possible. A lot to be said for and against both parties.

[savioroshan]

Cant say anything right now. In the near future may be bitcoincash can overtake bitcoin. Its mainly because the transaction fees of bitcoincash is really very less and I think in future people will prefer bitcoin cash for small transactions. Definitely we cant use bitcoin for small transactions like 10 dollars etc because of its high fees. So may be in future bitcoincash may overtake bitcoins.

[Gameflip ICO]

Of course no, it is just regular dump and pump.

It's just a game of big players. Nobody will believe that BCH can berat BTX, it is an absurde.

[armutkafa]

Bitcoin will never be taken overy by any coin as i believe. I am very confident bitcoin will see 10 in atleast 2 months.

[songwdzw]

I don't think it will be happened. The reason why bch went so crazy in this several days is because some people who wants the bch to be increased so they can make big profit easily. Soon, the bch will dump seriously. Also, I am still optimistic for BTC.

Don't worry man, bitcoin will prove everything and you should believe it as many people did.

Hope have a wonderful day!

[Buddyzle]

Personally I feel it will be a while before bitcoin cash can take over bitcoin as the number 1 cryptocurrency.
News and speculations always have a way of creating a mirage in this crypto world. But generally bitcoin is still far more acceptable than bitcoin cash. Even though some sites online are starting to come around and include BCH as an accepted payment form.

[Bitsurfer333]

i think no coin ever will beat BTC, it is the crypto king for real

[East7547]

Very much appears to be hype and a pump

[MakeMoneyBtc]

Definitely not. The price of BCH increased a lot in a short time but that was because it has very promoted everywhere, especially on social media and a lot of miners moved from bitcoin to bitcoin cash. The price rapidly increased but is was something temporary just because a lot of people invested in a short time a big amount of money. As we can see on charts, the price decreases everyday with 5% so it is going down to the original price of 600$-700$. There is no way BCH can take over BTC

I see manipulation happening in BCH and because of it, Bitcoin Cash would not be taking over bitcoin. Also, I see that the current spam attack on block chain somehow is related with it. If ever it would, I think it would not affect other coins that much but it is a waste of time thinking about it because the chance of it happening is very low. I think that ETH is better than BCH even if it had surpassed it in price. At least ETH admin does not try to manipulate bitcoin to hype their coin.
