It already did when they kicked out the BSV and XEC niggers
Now it's the best L1 tradcoin on the market

There was a lot of politics going on at the time, like the XEC fork. On top of that, you had people dumping their BCH that they didn't sell in the 2017 bull with all the flippening hype happening.
A lot of dev time between 2017 and 2021 was either spent mired in internal conflict (BSV/XEC), or establishing a governance process, coalescing on an altered brand, technical upgrades such as new address formats & improving the difficulty adjustment algorithm. These are not small changes.
Since XEC has split in 2020, everybody has been on the same page and it's gotten major upgrades
>Unlimited unconfirmed chains
>Multiple OP_RETURNs
>Double-Spend Proofs
>Native Introspection Opcodes - efficiency improvement for covenants that not only simplifies complex transactions but also enhances the possibilities around scheduled and recurring payments. Important for a cash system.
>Bigger Script Integers
>Pay-To-Script-Hash-32
>CashTokens

The CashTokens upgrade (2023) is the most substantial upgrade on BCH in years. CashTokens makes it possible for native tokens, both fungible and non-fungible, to reside directly and securely on the blockchain. No other UTXO chain has this, so BCH has the first-mover advantage. >1000x more efficient than EVM, and BCH has never had any downtime unlike SOL.

There's an entire DeFi ecosystem in BCH now.

This May they're also making the blocksize algorithmic according to demand for block space. There's some restrictions on it so it can't scale to fast for Moore's law to keep up, but it prevents having another blocksize war in case a bunch of people jump into BCH and the fees end up as bad as BTCs.

Ignoring them is going to work until it doesn't

CTV has the most realistic chance of making consensus and allows committing to millions of virtual UTXOs and the set can be updated in a 1-in-1-out TX, and they can all share in the fee for that 1 TX. It won't be blocked by LN shit like channel liquidity etc.
It doesn't come without trade-offs, it will require lots of off-chain coordination to manage these updates and punish those who don't play along etc., but even that is better than custodial and better than LN.
Or people can just move over to BCH, because it will have better UX

hmmm

more time to accumulate

I'd go with BCH they've got some adjustable blocksize update coming in a few months and also some stuff to make nodes and block propagation faster/cheaper on the roadmap which should help with decentralization

this has literally always been the case
