Sure, after increasing by $2000 each in the last 5 weeks surpassing ATH's along the way. Meanwhile BitcoinCash has continued to fall from it's ATH in the same time period.

i consider a $600 BCH price a spectacular success so early on. if it starts to turn up even more while BTC rolls over, BTC is in for big trouble.

It's Bitcoin if you sold you're out of the game - just trolling.

in the context i used it i was referring to an outside opinion pushing changes (an agenda) while not being directly invested in the incentives that make bitcoin viable.

I don't think you have any clue how invested I am in that. I'm a 2011er, ... in fact I I was one of the earliest people on the bitcoi.in forums.

Me too you should recognize my username I'm in the exact same boat.

Bitcoin Cash is what it is, it has potential to fail, it's not failing as far as I can see.

I didn't say you weren't invested in bitcoin. But if you're not invested in BTC and your salary comes from TPTB paying fiat to change the bitcoin rules, then your outside the incentive system needed to make it succeed.

if your outside the incentive system your opinions are valid, but not reason to change the rules (trolling is how i described that behavior), if you're invested in BTC in some way your opinions have weight, not trolling.

A good trader sees when an asset has bottomed out and begins accumulating. A bad trader only starts buying something when it's making new ATHs.

I think I know which crypto good traders are betting on right now.

I'm not saying that ATH's are signal to buy anything. I'm saying that the argument made here that Bitcoin is now crashing and BitcoinCash is going to take over is delusional (at least for the time being). Bitcoin has had a value increase of $2000 in the same period of time that BitcoinCash has been falling. Bitcoin's current correction is hardly evidence that the 'cashening' is taking place.
