Really starting to like Bitcoin Cash
When it first started out as a fork from bitcoin core, I was cautious because of how the money materialized for the chain, but I can see why it was necessary and how it's helped cryptocurrency now and bitcoin to survive.
I still work with classic bitcoin everyday (pretty sure most people do in some way here), but there are some nice advantages with bitcoin cash that classic bitcoin struggles with, primarily speed, merchant systems, and flexibility. It's everything that Paypal and other financial systems were trying to achieve over the past two decades.
Even if I have to convert to classic btc to work with it, I still prefer people sending with bch rather than btc. Way faster, fewer fees, smaller blockchain.dat file, saves time. (I still use others like Dash and Monero when appropriate, but bch has been everything I need lately to send bitcoin faster in addition to rapid purchases).
Bitcoin classic will always have a place as will Bitcoin cash. Today I see and use both; btc more as a type of savings or mutual fund account, and bch more as an everyday cash and carry / checking account for your bitcoin.
What's your mileage on this? What's your opinion on this? Same or different? Insights welcome.
