Do you think BCH will replace BTC in the future?

[Hallmader]

there are many good altcoins can replace Bitcoin such as Bitcoin cash, Litecoin, IOTA, Dash, Monero,... in payment. But I think that Bitcoin is the symbol of Cryptocurrency.  People can use other coins for payment, but those coins can replace the role of Bitcoin.

This is most probably true. I think the same way. Bitcoin is the father of cryptocurrency. It is the beginning of everything about crypto and blockchain. Everything else that followed are simply following the footsteps of Bitcoin. However, as is true to almost everything in life, the second, third, fourth, fifth, and so on will try to become better than their previous version. So in terms of decentralization, anonymity, scalability, etc, the cryptos that followed have already installed some improvements. But the truth remains that the role of being the founder cannot be replaced anytime.

I definitely agree, bitcoin is no longer "KING" eternally time will comes and it will be replaced by any of the coins or altcoins of the crypto currency.
We don't know when it will happen but be ready for that possibility, if you have a lot of altcoins it's better if you hold it for long period of time because I'm sure that in the future you can used that.

[chanler]

It could be just that to happen, it is not impossible. let alone this month alone bitcoin not experiencing price increase again reverse precisely bitcoin cash always increase little by little and even sometimes directly rises to the high prices.

[Dancil]

To approximate maybe Guys.
But to get past the BTC seems Difficult.
BTC is still a priority for now and for the next few years.

On paper, sure, it would seem that all these coins can replace Bitcoin. But let's remove the coins with specific niche uses. Monero and Dash are for anonymous transactions, which not everyone needs or will dare to learn to use due to added complexity. Let's remove platform coins like ETH and Waves or Stratis, because these are coins that support other apps.

Litecoin and BCH yes, will be among those strong challengers that compete strictly on basis as currency or means of payment. Until we see the day people are able to easily convert them to cash, and easily buy products and services with them, we can't ignore that Bitcoin still means the first thing we understand when we say crypto.

[Bonakid]

They cannot replace bitcoin because it has a good foundation that cannot defeated by any other coins.Bitcoin is the mother of cryptocurrency and I think no one can replace it in the future ,we did not sure of any what happen on it there is a possibility that it will be stronger for the near future.

[ItBeginInAfrica]

no, I don't think it will replace BTC but it has a huge potential to be the CASH crypto, while
BTC is and will be the STORE OF VALUE (like gold). It will eventually substitute Gold IMHO

[greply]

I that in terms of Bitcoin's original purpose, yes Bitcoin Cash or another spinoff or alt will replace Bitcoin as the number of unconfirmed transactions and increase in fees is making it virtually useless as a payment method. However in terms of being a store of value, which many are calling Bitcoin now, I don't think any coin can compete with it at the moment.

[rhamzter]

I can't believe that bitcoin cash replace bitcoin in crypto currency industry, maybe it will happen in the future but it takes a decades. Because if you notice bitcoin are so long gap with bitcoin cash, so lets see if this BCH reach closed to the position of bitcoin. I guess many people are going to invest in bitcoin cash now, because price of this coin now are silently increasing.

[dagon666]

Never, not a chance.  It doesn't have any particular use purpose other than being faster.. what does it differently other than that? 

[simonsaysmoney]

It was an obvious attempt to try to overthrow BTC, with a massive fail..  Coinbase staff and that bitcoin.com idiot should all be drawn and quartered for inside trading... I would pay to watch it in bitcoin.

[lazy-physicist]

Less transaction fees and same amount as BTC... why not

 

[borgx]

Yes i think it will take over.
The high transaction fees, older technology, the team focussing only on improving bitcoin cash now....
The only reason bitcoin is better is because its the only coin that can actually used for payment.

But im a firm believer of that newer -and- better tech will replace older tech, especially if that older tech is also more expensive.

But since butcoin dominates so much, it will take time.

I dont think other coins will take over because bitcoin cash already has the name of bitcoin. This automaticly creates hype and research and therefore investments. Especially upcoming chances are looking good and now more and more accepted by trading ans buying platforms.

[aziernest]

big no for sure!
although bitcoin might become reserve, and out of everyone reaches, but I dont see it  being replaced.

for day to day transaction it may be replaced, i personally do day to day transfers via eth [cheaper/faster compared to btc]

[Cart]

I think the insider trading is really crazy which happened today. It pumped to nearly 10k, it is so crazy. Crypto is like the wild west right now

[carlisle1]

less transaction fees because bitcoin cash is not as big as bitcoin,but when
time comes the price is the same maybe the fees is more than bitcoin by then.and.
Thats impossible for bitcoin to be replaced by bch..i doubt if it will happen.

[mammusu]

Nothing impossible in the cryptocurrency, anything can happened.
May be someday bitcoin cash can be replace bitcoin, I see the price of BCH is rise a lot today
But I always believe that bitcoin is the best at the moment.

ofcourse tps on bch is pretty low as compared to btc.

and big whales have to unload their wallet at the moment...

[Gonzo1977]

As much as I would want for BCH to be right up there with Bitcoin, I do not see it happening anytime soon

[MaxGiant57001]

Which Bitcoin is the real Bitcoin will be determined by its value as a functioning currency and that is what will drive adaptation.
