I like the Bitcoin Cash idea... so please bring more like this...

More alt coins derived from Bitcoin will destabilize the main coin. Not a good idea in my opinion.

more possibilities are there but i think it is too early to say anything about this. but my personal view is that bitcoin will be effect either by creating  altcoin or something else because bitcoin is very strong and having good potential to increase.

So I can sell them all and buy more Bitcoins  

Let's be honest nobody will really use anything else than BTC in the long run, but it is a good opportunity to get some more for free.

It's not as good as it looks. We should really avoid these situations at all costs. You can't make money out of thin air, this has a toll on bitcoin's credibility. I have no doubt that BTC price will recover, but I see a dip happening if the BCC camp insist on their bullshit. Hopefully is a non event and we can get some free BTC without any relevant impact on the real BTC.

I am not sad that I have got even only a few satoshis as BCC

Take note. I'm not saying that BTC will not be useful in the long run, and there's a good chance that it will be here to stay but be reminded that there are alot of altcoins out there that are really good and that has potential. Not gonna say which ones, but take a look at coinmarketcap.com and do research on some of the cryptocurrencies.

Bitcoin Cash failed to distinguish itself very much from BTC, so they are rebranding it to "Bitcoin Crash"

 (8x more scalable with less hashing... big deal)

lol... I am not into it but this topic has been too hot in the forum lately. I wonder how the dev will solve this problem, maybe until August 10 they say because there will be still a potential that coins will split.

You really cannot come to a conclusion that nobody will be using if the technology is good and the level in which they are planning to scale and if the general masses feel that it is a convincing technology then people will follow that,i really do not want to see anymore forks in bitcoin as it will reduce the value of bitcoin in the long run.

I like it as well, because it's money and a lot of it. If you were lucky and had some BTC on an exchange like bittrex you were able to cash out 0.5 BTC per BCC. That's some serious money! Nobody should ignore such opportunity.

  you know this was a years in the making and not some free cash just decided willy nilly.. Though I too secretly wished btc would split into 4

I don't think that is a good idea as if you are really adding up your Bitcoin having another Altcoin derived from Bitcoin would potentially do more harm than good. It would create new panic and maybe this time it would be bigger as we all have thought that August 1 would be enough. In my perspective I would rather see Bitcoin just by itself rather than rely on free Altcoin that is derived from it.

True, we do not need more forks I hope this is enough to show all the miners that the community in the majority does not want this and we are following the vision of the core developers, so whether they like it or not they have lost the battle and there is no one that is going to come and save them like at the battle of Dunkirk.
