lightning network is basically freeing coins from the blockchain to be settled at a later time. bcash has admitted that their plan for scaling is for huge mining centers to be the only full nodes which would require millions of $ of infrastructure per year to support

No its caused by the Segwit selfish mining attack where if a cartel forms it is ALWAYS more profitable to discard signatures.

The Lightning Network has existed since Bitcoin was released, you could always stream money. The Bitcoin Cash version of lightning has fees 350 times lower to open a channel so it is more efficient. The adoption just isn't there to make it necessary.
>doesnt matter because lightning nodes cannot distinguish transactions
He said the Lightning Network routing as promised by Blockstream is impossible so it does matter. I think you just didn't want to talk about this so you fudged it.
>lightning network is basically freeing coins from the blockchain to be settled at a later time. bcash has admitted that their plan for scaling is for huge mining centers to be the only full nodes which would require millions of $ of infrastructure per year to support
A lot wrong here, but financial institutions would run nodes, so would universities, so would tech companies, so you would have tens of thousands of nodes. Also the infrastructure required is not millions of dollars. I just built a gaming pc that can handle 600-800 tx/s which is almost half what VISA does.

How can we raid other communities if we are censored literally everywhere. This makes no sense. Crypto was literally designed to stop censorship and that is all Segwit supporters do is censor. I mean at least by bringing up ETH you brought up a coin that has a chance against BCH but that chance is slim.

XRP > BCH

[Performance]
-Ripple consistently handles 1,500 transactions per second, 24x7.
-Payment channels can process 10s of 1000s of transactions per second.

.
[Cost]
-A standard transaction costs just 0.00001 XRP.
-The cost is not paid to any party: it's irrevocably destroyed.

.
[Real-world use]
-5 institusions are currently using XRP (MoneyGram, Cuallix, FlashFX, IDT and MercuryFX).
-Many banks are currently using xCurrent. Since xRapid is cheaper (saves up to 60%) and provides final settlement, they are likely to transition to it.
-Bichip will use XRP in its RFID chips.
-A w3c standard that Ripple helped develop (and was demo'd by Microsoft) will be available in all major browsers, it'll facilitate paying with XRP.

.
[Economics]
-The supply is fixed.
-Unlike Bitcoin, there's no inflation. Bitcoin uses PoW which relies on inflation and/or high fees. Bitcoin requires $18M of net new $ flowing in just to maintain the price!!

.
[Security]
-Unlike Bitcoin, double-spending isn't possible. Bitmain (a Chinese company) can rollback Bitcoin's chain and bunkrupt the whole ecosystem.
-An attack could only stop new transactions temporarily. Participants would simply remove bad participants from their list

.
[Decentralisation]
-Each participant can run a validator and use his own list of validators.
-validators role is to agree on an order for new transactions
-10s of reputable public & private entities around the world are currently running validators (e.g., Microsoft, MIT, CGI, WorldLink, Bahnhof,..)
-Consensus for the order of new transactions requires a supermajority of 80%

.
[Incentives]
-XRP is a revenue source for Ripple Labs. This aligns its incentives with XRP hodlers. It uses the revenue to improve the tech and expand XRP's marketshare.
-Ripple Labs share is locked in 55 batches on the network. Only one batch can be unlocked per month. It would take them 5 years to unlock them all. XRP is sold only to long term investors (i.e., they can't dump).

The fact that you need capital to start a competitive business in a market economy is not centralization. That's freedom you communist faggot. The same capital requirements exist for nearly all forms of industry. Farming isn't centralized because you need tractors to farm.

The attack would slow things down a lot but transactions would still go through. It'd still be faster than Bitcoin ironically enough. Just wouldn't be instant anymore. Hence its not a security issue. A dos attack on a distributed network large and sustained enough to completely destroy a network is simply not possible. And if it was then someone would have already margin shorted nano and done it themselves. Also i bought in at $2 so I've got nothing to lose either way. Stay mad you son of a bitch besterd

something like 3 guys own 50% of the worlds wealth, are you seriously arguing that if the wealthiest people decided to use bitcoin as a store of value that it would be worthless because the other 99.99% broke as a joke losers that inhabit the globe don't use it to buy coffee?

A store of wealth that can lose more than half its value in under a month? Kek. Keep moving those goal posts to keep up with newer and better tech.

it's early days, it's in the process (9 years so far) of becoming a store of value

the rest of your shit is just appeal to authority, as if satoshi was infallible, who gives a fuck what he claimed bitcoin is meant to be and instead focus on what it is - for the 1% on those on the ride side of the bell curve which excludes 99% of the population, and that's the cold harsh truth and required understanding in order to succeed in the world that is to come.

Not an argument.

The 51% attack thing is a meme. Even if it was possible to knock off most of the network for a sustained period of time, which its not, in order to execute the attack you'd need a massive amount of nanos, and in doing so they'd lose all their value. Congrats on playing yourself again pajeet. You're good at one thing at least.

I do use banks. But Bitcoin is better because it is decentralized. You implied there wouldn't be enough nodes from distinct entities to ensure the network was secure and that is distinctly false.

the bitcoin cash devs are actually interested in doing really cool shit to try to increase adoption, and they wanna do it without calling proof-of-work consensus into question and adopting crippled fucking lightning network side-chains and ultra-centralized nodes
with the same mindset of a communist who wishes to achieve a perfect society by simply pretending that they've already accomplished it, bitcoin core aims to increase transaction volume by bypassing proof-of-work—and in the process, they compromise the entire thing that gives bitcoin real value and that makes it so secure

dumb pajeet doesn't realize that some attacks don't care about direct profit (e.g., competitor, government, ..etc)

dumb pajeet doesn't realize making the network unsuable would evaporate the makret cap

With fees of around 1 cent per transaction you don't need normans to buy it. You build financial apps that use BCH for transactions and since its transactions are so cheap and fast you move other people's dollars, yen, pounds, renminbi, euros, etc. through BCH without the normans knowing they are using it. NChain is investing in a lot of startups doing just that, like Centbee.

Only because the price of BCH is lower. When the price flips it will be called Bitcoin. What will flip the price is the tech.

Bitcoin Cash is a Korean commerce banking conspiracy to try to take over Bitcoin and thus the crypto market. They made their play hoping that they would be the real 'flippening', and they're still hoping for that, and as you can tell by this thread, still propagandizing about it.

If you want Korea to control crypto, then buy Bitcoin Cash.

it's analogous to saying you can change the result of the 2016 pres election and set yourself a goal of 2021 to complete it by - you just look retarded, there's no undoing it, you lost, bcash lost, and some accept it sooner than others, the later to their detriment.
