I've seen a lot of people think that #BitcoinCash $BCH should go up in value now that #Bitcoin $BTC is wrestling with scalability issues.
In this thread, I'll try to tame your expectations a bit, and keep us all a little more grounded:

1/ Back in 2015, #Bitcoin was viewed as a panacea to a lot of different problems. Each of these problems have different value and the users back then seems to mostly be broad in their interpretations and views.
To make this more tangible, lets consider some (incomplete) examples

2/ It was widely believed that #Bitcoin would replace gold and fiat as a store of value, become a dominant type of means of exchange, would enable commerce and financial interactions digitally that was previously not possible and once stable would also be our unit of account.
Bitcoin Cash Thread -
Bitcoin expands and contracts in many different ways. In other words, it's all a balancing act...

In 2017 the balance was broken. BTC would restrict the naturally required expansion of blocksize as the network grew.

Meaningful adoption of #Crypto as money still hasn't kicked in yet, despite 14 years since its inception and demand across the globe.
Why? 🤔
Because we keep getting stuck at certain levels of the adoption cycle. Thread:👇

Before going further I should acknowledge that #Bitcoin's block size limit did slow down adoption.
The blocks filled up and adoption halted until the #LightningNetwork became viable just a couple of years ago.
Happened regardless of if you think it was necessary or not🤷♂️

Okay so there are 4 big steps here:
1: People want crypto
2: People buy crypto
3: People want to be paid in crypto
4: People want to spend crypto
Each step represents consumer demand driving adoption, and each step needs its own tools to make this easy.

1/ #CryptoCrap - An infamous Canadian offshore #OnlineGambling tycoon (Calvin Ayre - #Bodog), #Bitcoin’s self styled inventor (Craig White), two Lords & a £10bn crypto lawsuit over #BitcoinSV. In 2018 the FT wrote ‘Bitcoin birthday boy is an absurd star of a serious industry. … 
2/ The new face of cryptocurrencies is none other than offshore #OnlineGambling kingpin Calvin Ayre.’ Back in 2018 it was ‘Forking hell’ in the crypto-crappery as rival crypto-nerd clans, fought it out, handbags at dawn, in the #BitcoinCash ‘hard fork war’.
3/3 On one side (#BitcoinSV: BSV) the self styled ‘inventor of #Bitcoin’ (Craig Wright) and on the other (#BitcoinCash: BCH) ‘Bitcoin Jesus’ (Roger Ver). BitcoinSV lost & is now targeting offshore crypto exchanges #Binance, #Bittylicious, #Kraken and #Shapeshift.
Pleas for reconciliation = subconscious fault recognition, precursor to humble conversion. #BCH needs all Bitcoiners, but cannot afford any previously purged nonsense.

Here's some mind numbing notes on Wyckoff and where I see we are at in this Trend Cycle.
Part of my studies have been to always apply Wyckoff to a medium timeframe analysis as I find it's helpful determining TC.
First was our markdown phase, I believe this period to be over.

That also means the bear market is over. Doesn't mean we can't visit $10k. The 77% move from the top to 16k I would consider to be the end of a bear market and the most money to be made is done
Next we move to accumulation. This period can last a long time. So no FOMO.

Spring has the potential to go a little deeper before recovery. Either way, often bears get trapped here believing market has more downside when institutional investment and smart money pops the price into the next markup phase.
1/ I've been trying to understand more about the #LightningNetwork from a user experience point of view, as I see many enthusiasts openly advocating the tool as a real scaling solution while using #BTC as money for everyday life — trying to get new users on board.
2/ I have a keen interest in using decentralized money for everyday activities, and when I talk to people who are looking for the same (or living it in practice), their experiences involving lightning are usually pretty negative.
Among the negative reports I see, mainly ⬇️

1/ Venho tentando entender mais sobre a #LightningNetwork de um ponto de vista de experiência do usuário, já que vejo muitas pessoas defendendo abertamente a ferramenta como uma solução real de escalabilidade e uso do #bitcoin como dinheiro para o dia-a-dia.
2/ Eu tenho um grande interesse no uso de dinheiro descentralizado para atividades corriqueiras e, quando converso com pessoas que estão buscando o mesmo (ou vivendo isso na prática), as experiências envolvendo a #lightning, normalmente, são bastante negativas.
3/ Então, na minha percepção, existe uma contradição entre:
A) muita gente defendendo o uso da tecnologia, sem tantos relatos de uso real;
B) muita gente que usa, relatando que a experiência é ruim e não é uma solução viável.
Minha própria experiência foi negativa.

BTC is "Bitcoin" only because a group of centralized exchanges gave it that ticker.
In other words, it was fixed.
A few dozen people decided that the Segwit fork would be "BTC" and the version that worked the way Bitcoin had always worked would become an "altcoin."

Remember when Faketoshi split BCH?
Even though he was a total fraud with a completely bogus motivation for causing a split only two weeks before code freeze, exchanges still gave that bozo a level playing field, renaming BCH into "BCHABC" and "BCHSV".

Probablemente algunos hayan visto este video. Más allá de la demostración penosa de la tecnología (desubicados el lugar, la forma y el momento), hay un detalle no menor que me gustaría enfatizar para los que creen que #LightningNetwork funciona.
Si notan bien, por un par de segundos se muestra la tarifa de la transacción (el equivalente a diez centavos de dólar o casi veinte pesos argentinos).
¿Por qué paga tanto? Resulta que al pagar por Lightning usando Muun, la billetera «esconde» el hecho de que se está abriendo un nuevo canal de pago. Realmente, esa tarifa es la transacción que debe quedar registrada en la cadena de bloques.
A bit over a year ago there was a lot of discussions about #BitcoinCash and the topic of a #Roadmap. Back then, I spent some time with @im_uname to get his views on the path forward but after some exploring of the subject we put it aside.
This thread is a look back on our notes.

From a scalability perspective, there's a lot more that can be done, but there was mempool improvements, unconfirmed chain limits was removed and I think there was some delays in transaction relay that was addressed too.
There has been improvements to extensibility and script: we should have native introspection, multiplication and 64-bit integers after the May 2022 upgrade. Work has been put down to re-evaluate safe script limits, but unclear when/if it will be complete.
I love how you can watch the history of literal wars ticking in while a node is syncing.
Every time I'm watching a node sync, I get to relive all the history of #Bitcoin, #BitcoinCash, #BSV and #eCash.
Lemme give you a glimpse.

Here's the Bitcoin Cash hard fork in August 2017. You can see how initially blocks are super spaced out.
Due to the higher difficulty, there were only a few benevolent miners.
Later, it's able to process many more blocks, as BCH had much less usage.
Bitcoin Cash was born.

Here's the "stresstest" the camp that much later became BSV did in October of the same year. It takes much longer to process blocks as they're filled up to the max.
Back then, the maximum block size was just 8 MB, so my node still only takes a few seconds for each block.

YESSSS!! This is truth!
Anyone who actually knows The Satoshi Collective's vision realizes that #BitcoinCash $BCH is much much closer to The Satoshi Vision than $BTC as of 2021 is...
We need unlimited-sized blocks, high memory reqs (to thwart ASICs), reset block rewards...

Since $BCH only has 1 of those, there's room for a fork or two!
Also, requiring 64+ GB of RAM to mine a block would democratize mining fast. I already made a high-memory fork of #Bitcoin in 2019 that requires 128 GB haha. Never published. PoC

I substituted Proof of Work for randomness of high memory floating point precision in HUGE 128-bit numbers, trillions of them.
I really need to write a whitepaper and launch a fork of $BCH with it in it... Solve the environmental footprint problem, swapipng electricity for RAM.

Another place where #bitcoin tends to show up in litigation is in divorce, when married couples divvy up assets. In DeSouza v. DeSouza, a spouse was held to violate his fiduciary duty to his spouse by concealing #bitcoin. /1
Here, the divorcing spouse had some #bitcoin tied up in #MtGox and some held on private wallets. One spouse did not disclose the holdings until after the divorce, and the other spouse immediately sought an award of 1/2 and attorney's fees. Court agreed, noting that divorcing /2
Spouses owe statutory fiduciary duties, & failure to disclose the existence of the #bitcoin, payments to Mt. Gox, some bitcoin's ties to #MtGox & the forks of #bitcoincash and #bitcoingold amounted to breaches of duty; Court disagreed that capital appreciation mitigated /3

Non-monetary inputs are an important indicator of actual usage on a blockchain. #Litecoin's NMO% is 2% or lower. Many times 0%.
This chart below shows #LTC is 99% used for monetary trx's.
