I don't recall people saying, "Give me an inferior product with less storage, less bandwidth, higher transaction fees, and I want to pay 200 times more for this inferior product". That's why I am betting on Bitcoin Cash and that the truth eventually wins.

Looking around at the world today, what makes you think truth wins?

You make a good point, truth gets hidden, laughed at, censored, attacked while blatant lies get blasted all over media and zero moral crooks make huge salaries ...let's hope this changes one day before we bite it. BCH & XMR all day for me! Especially after I had the displeasure of using Lightning the other day. What a smoking turd that thing is.

Hence the words "I am betting..."

I hate to date myself, but I remember betting on the CPM operating system against the infinitely inferior IBM DOS. CPM is gone and Microsoft is an empire.

My concern is that the same will happen with BCH. Citadel's EDX exchange already delisted BCH, I believe for business reasons. The big exchanges will have a much easier time monopolizing BTC, and they don't want BCH providing a real exchange coin alternative for the masses.

Time will tell.

Honestly it's already over. The fight is no longer BCH vs BTC, it's BTC vs smart contract crypto. Hardly anyone knows or cares about BCH.

I agree that fight exists. With ordinals, multisig, and movements to make BTC "smarter", that is a significant contest.

I was thinking about P2P and decentralization. For a while BNB coin (centralized) was used in Africa and SA as a P2P coin. Then people went to Doge for a while. It would be nice to have a P2P coin with minimal transaction fees. BCH, LTC, or even ADA if it ever gets there.

Too bad Luna was a scam. They had the perfect ecosystem for it theoretically. Maybe Cosmos can get there.

I'm into BTC, but not for small every day transactions. Remember Blade Runner where Decker paid 2 satoshis for a meal? At this point it looks like that won't happen with BTC or any contract token.

It seems to me that crypto has already succeeded in creating an alternate, decentralized financial space and has done so with many networks. There is still a lot of growing up to do, and who remains the largest market cap network isn't known for sure, but the hard work is done. Crypto is accepted as a real thing.

What about other coins? Nano has no transaction fees, for example. How did you decide bitcoin cash was the winner? I am assuming because its a fork if Bitcoin, which doesn’t really feel compelling to me.

Those people are crazy. Don't try to be like them. The better part of "Value", to say nothing of "market value" is all in our imaginations, and the computational differences from one coin to the next are hardly a drop in the ocean. If any of that really mattered to people in the way that true believers used to talk about it, they'd all have just used nano, since it's faster, free and isn't burning nation-states worth of electricity 24x7. That was basically all the proof I needed to accept that people just don't care about technical capabilities, like, at all. It's all just about the passive mining income (I wish I could just call it a scam but it's more like a communicable personality disorder) and the speculation vehicle.

People do it all the time. Just look at movies and video games. You can easily get all that for free, but people insist on paying and they are willing to defend it. People function on emotion, not logic.

Are you saying there's something cheaper and superior to Bitcoin Cash, and you're making a foolish bet?

I am saying there are different flavors of Bitcoin and the one I am betting on is Bitcoin Cash and not BGold/BTC/BSV.

Bitcoin maxi here, trying to understand the argument here.

Thanks in advance.

It's fine that other crypto than BTC covers fast and cheap payments, if LN doesn't work well enough. Some here might just have gotten stuck in the war and maybe sold their BTC cheap and can't get over the gains they could've made or their losses in BCH, idk.

I would be more concerned that

  • BTCPay Server seems to not support BCH.
  • a huge wallet app like Electrum seems to not have a safe and open source fork for BCH.
  • work on Electrum-Dash has been dropped.
