RE: Level of Argument in the Bitcoin vs Bitcoin Cash Debate
Totally agree. Every argument ends up the same way nowadays. Although things have been a bit calmer lately since people have had a lot to worry about.
The only possible argument in favor of BTC that I can accept (even though I don't agree) is that the crypto currency market is still too dependent on the ONE currency, and hurting bitcoin would negatively affect the whole "industry".
That said, I think it would be beneficial. Unless BTC quickly gets the lightning network going, I don't see it going anywhere.
Yeah, that dependence is going the way of the Dodo bird. You are for one seeing more and more pairing of the top cryptos to smaller alts so you could use BCH, ETH, and even LTC now in a lot of exchanges to buy smaller alts rather than BTC. Also you are seeing more direct buying of alts coins from fiat so you don't need to buy any BTC to get any alt coin. Things like the Robinhood app are going to really change the game. People were stuck having to go through BTC but with more access it will have to stand on the merits of its underlying tech alone.
