So BCH always gets hated on thanks to Roger Ver's shills, but let's look at one solid fact.
If Cryptocurrency goes up overall, BCH always has one of the largest percentage gains. However, the opposite is true. If cryptocurrency was to die, BCH would hit $0 first (As close to 0 as possible).
The real thing to look at is, "what if the cryptocurrency market double/tripled/etc in price?". Chances are, Bitcoin Cash would start closing the distance with BTC. If the entire cryptocurrency market inflated high enough, BCH would actually flip BTC at a certain point.
The real question is, will cryptocurrency ever go back up enough for BCH to realize its full potential? Someday, Bitcoin Cash may well take over Bitcore Core, but it'll be years from now. Dethroning the original Bitcoin won't be easy, but BCH has laid the grounds needed to do it.
Craig Wright, Roger Ver and Jihan Wu own enough Bitcoin to tank the market for ten years. All the early adopters have switched over. Core is unironically finished
you corecucks really see nothing wrong with blockstream? you take no issue with the decisions the core team has made and continues to make?
personalities aside you prefer lightning with 1mb blocks over scaling the main chain at all (even 2-4mb blocks and keeping segwit/2nd layer, just scale enough to prevent what happened in December during an adoption phase)?
by the way, the core faggots are just as shitty of people as ver/csw; they just aren't in the limelight.
I mean who do you think you should trust; independently super rich people who participate in Bitcoin's primary economic system (and thus have every reason to see it succeed as originally envisioned), or some guys who don't mine at all and are relatively poor, who are more beholden to outside companies (axa/blockstream) than bitcoin itself, and who have therefore created a system to move tx fees from miners to themselves (damaging the incentive system which secures BTC)?
Andresen should have never gave those corecucks github commit access. We would all have already made it if that never happened.

>hurrr muh whitepaper says bcash is real bitcoin even though it objectively does not, for obvious reasons. >hurrr muh whitepaper doesn't matter its not bitcoin cause a soft fork that needed 95% support to activate was activated, and some people made some software that works on bitcoin and other coins deluded cashcucks are masters of mental gymnastics
the bitcoin whitepaper says nothing about off chain scaling that uses bitcoin as a base layer. lightning is not adherent to bitcoin's whitepaper and is contrary to its intended use which is for individuals to transfer it to each other, peer to peer, cryptographically secured by the blockchain. once you start including a "settlement layer" you are deviating from the intent.
Tell me, why is bcore limited to 1MB? Tell me one single remotely plausible reason?
You can't, because there are no reasons. Bitcoin Cash is Bitcoin.
Joshua Harris
In my view there is nothing wrong with a layer 2 built ontop of bitcoin. The problem arises when you intentionally cripple the blockchain to force people to use your layer 2.
Lightning will work on bcash too you dumb faggot. I guess that means its not the real bitcoin then right?
Because Satoshi himself put the limit there and was dumb enough not to fix it soon enough. He wasn't a god. Also because consensus is easier said than done.
how could Satoshi let his creation fall into the hands of brainlets such as this

>ending at just under 31 MB in 2045 April
ahahahahah holy shit you bcorecucks are deluded as fuck. Just off yourself.
Evan Phillips
That toothless rat Luke jr. wants to reduce bcore's blocksize to 300kb, not increase it you moron.
William Jones
lightning could work on it but that doesn't mean it will. bch miners do not support lightning, this is kind of the point. if you wanted bitcoin cash with lightning network, you will have to fork it in order to implement.
there isn't anything wrong with the idea of lightning network but it has nothing to do with what bitcoin is trying to accomplish. when you let lightning network take the wheel on your coin, what is underneath lightning network is arbitrary, and hence, bitcoin core will be useless and valueless.

>stick to reality
jihan would be glad to see bch adopt the btc ticker, but he's true in saying that's not the world we live in now. as one of the faces of bch he's not interested in looking like he's organizing a coup, even if he is. that post was a publicity ploy to look amicable in his rivalry.
Cameron Ross
lol so why didn't they raise it last year (when fees were already becoming a problem circa july/august) instead of forcing the hard fork that created BCH. If they agreed to 2mb last August we would only have BTC today, not this BTC/BCH rift.
Why are they keeping the block size way lower than it needs to be? These little non-mining nodes they argue for (which are an excuse not a reason; they do nothing that the miner nodes aren't already doing better) could easily handle 2-4 even 8 mb.
you genuinely don't believe there is no way they intentionally created a situation where people would see lightning as a necessary solution to BTC's supposed scaling problem?
Lucas Baker
genuinely believe there is no way *

The way I view layer 2s is that they are necessarily centralized. They can have whatever smoke and mirrors they want, but in the end it will be essentially the same as something like tippr bot, except more difficult to use.
Thomas Robinson
indeed. if it was decentralized, it doesn't need bitcoin. if it needs bitcoin, it's there because specific people need to solve the problem, which threatens decentralization. lightning network will be an achilles heel into the "debank the banks" "trustless" paradigms that bitcoin carried when it was introduced.
Levi Garcia
Whelp, its a good thing you dont know what youre talking about then, isnt it?
Isaac Lewis
where did the core ppl go? seems like whenever the hard questions and actual discussion come out they disappear.
