possibly. bitcoincash can be a good alternative next to bitcoin because bch is indeed near perfect and it doesnt have any known issues or problems like scalability or slow and expensive transaction cost.
It does. Bitcoin needs more than "increasing block size" to be ready for mainstream (but I don't think it needs to), but by thousands, not just 8 like with BCH blocks. And BTC is slow because of miners manipulation.
did a transaction 15 hours ago, paid $26, its still pending, btc trans are expensive and slow
No one is saying that BTC transactions are fast & cheap. We're saying that BCH is only fast & cheap now because it's not used. It's in no way ready for mainstream adoption, and the whole system isn't. IF being a faster & cheaper form of currency TODAY is important to you, then yeah BCH is useful, but there better ALTs for this job already. Like, Litecoin. And others.
IF you're concerned about the far future, BCH, even by enlarging blocks over & over, will never scale to cope with demand, a demand similar to the one of your VISA card. Nor will BTC. And it doesn't matter, because they aren't currencies, they are digital gold.
If you're really using the BCH today, as a currency, consider that you just bought a $500 pizza, judging by the end-2018 value of what you paid for it. That's just dumb. It's only not dumb if you buy BCH again, using fiat, right after you paid for your pizza. You may as well have paid for your pizza in fiat in the first place. Either way, you're dumb. But let's face it, the bunch of sheep following Roger, aren't dumb, they're just liars. Which is lame, because everyone would understand & be ok with the fact they wanna get richer - we're all here for that same reason. They don't have to lie about it, just say it, they want BCH to take over BTC, because they own more BCH than BTC. They don't have to make out a story around it.
