Hi @reverseacid
On one side, we have the BTC community who believe the original Bitcoin is the only Bitcoin.
It's so strange, that some really intelligent people stuck with that mindset and they cannot accept, that there is more than one "truth" about Bitcoin. And those who want to use crypto as a way of payments, are going to "fight against the odds".
I rather like to think of BTC and many other tokens as of a Store of Value. It's so clear that banks and authorities will not support idea of btc being a form of currency, but they seem to be really open with idea of using this technology to raise money by start-ups.
Yours,
Piotr
As the term "fork" implies, both BTC and BCH can be seen as continuations of the original bitcoin path. Adherents of both coins claim to be the "true" coin, but both of them have advantages and disadvantages.
Of course, none of us know if any coin will become predominant, and if so, which one. But we can be sure that the value of BTC, BCH, and many more coins will continue to increase. Probably rapidly, and apparently soon!
It'll be an interesting ride ... to the moon ... regardless of which "crypto-space-ship" we are riding in.
