I do prefer BCH but if BTC keeps being the gold standard of crypto I dont mind it. It'd be better BCH and BTC has a peaceful relation and one is gold and the other is cash. like BTC pushes for LTC. Is it feasible?

So if BCH becomes a better store of value because of it's usage as cash(it'll be more scarce on exchanges so price goes up) then there will be no reason for BTC to exist.

Bitcoin lost almost 50% of its marketshare so far due to the idiotic policies of BSCore.

This digital gold bullshit goes against basic logic and very basic economics.

No. Utility creates value. No utility, no value.

The problem is that BTC is only the gold standard for the same reason that GOLD is the gold standard. It's just because people agree that it is.

Someone said it, and everybody followed. The original intent was cash. Then it didn't work and the BTC core people yelled "Store of Value" and the followers yelled. OK. .

Insane how effective astroturfing is at narrative control. People really suck at doing their own research.

That actually happens to be one of the 1st things I tell people at my meet ups! DYOR!

You know I'm just realizing now that I'm thinking about it, DYOR is something everyday humans really haven't ever had to do before. We've been relying on leaders for our entire history

unless all exchange creates pairs with BCH like Coinex, BTC is the main vehicle to get any crypto, even BCH. Also BCH should get the ticket of BTC. That is too famous.
replied 2923d
Yep. That is why BTC has so much volume. It would be interesting to see what the actual trade volume is just for BTC(Excluding in and out of alt coins).

good point

It remains to be seen if people want to Hodl BTC Without being a currency. Only time will tell. In the end, what creates the demand?
