Most people hate BCH, not because they are BTC shills or fundamentalists, but because BCH has the power to uproot the financial backbone of crypto, and it almost did back in November. That paired with how easy it is to hate Roger Ver makes BCH the go to target for pummeling.

The only way to convince these people is with real progress, which is still a way's off. If we are to believe the magnitude of the patents Craig Wright says Nchain will release to be used on the BCH chain only, then yes, BCH has a bright and stupendous future. But this is riding on 1 man's claim. 0 conf instant transactions, bigger blocks on a network that isn't being used enough to even fill 10% of them, these things wont change minds. BCH's ground game is better than any other crypto I've seen, in terms of reaching out to merchants to increase adoption, but usage increase from these efforts is still minimal and will only compound once price fomo kicks in, if ever.

So far BCH is promising moons based on features that already exist on ETH. BCH needs to do a hail mary at some point, it's not impossible, but depends greatly, maybe entirely, on the promises and decisions of a few men, and the mistakes and assumptions of a few other men. A catastrophic hash collapse on the BTC chain would put it in the ground, there's no question about it, but that wouldn't win BCH any new fans.

With that all being said, I've spoken to McAfee and he's convinced BCH will win out in the long term, but gives no timeframe when. His reasononing is purely because Jihan supports BCH over BTC. He seems to think Jihan has the power in this. Not sure if he's right, but combined with Jihan, Calvin Ayre, Craig Wright, and Roger Ver, they have a stupid amount of buying power. Their money alone could flip things, although then the group of BCH haters we're talking about would REALLY hate BCH.

tl;dr BCH haters have no real reason to stop hating BCH until new and amazing things are delivered.

Hi /biz/

I'm working on a Proof of Work algorithm that requires 10 consecutive posts from 10 different people counting the numbers from 1 to 10 in ascending order on a japanese basket weaving image board.

Can you help me?
