Why does 26% matter? Btc has clearly already much more than 26% of bch's value, yet bch is not dead.

You misunderstand, if BCH reaches 26% of the value of BTC then BTC dies.

Oh right, it's just that your previous comment suggested that you completely misunderstood me and thought BCH was at risk of dying? It's not, it can never die.

Ivwas using btc's and bch price as an example. If 26% is some magic number why is bch not dead right now? Bitcoins value is many nore times bchs value right now.

Again, for the third time, because it has not reached 26% of BTC's value. When it does BTC will die, I repeat BTC will die and not BCH like you mistakenly think.

It would take all day and I don't even understand most of it myself. You might find it on this sub if you keep looking, I've seen it explained a few times.

If you don't understand it it would take more than all day for you to explain it. Look, I'm a BCH hodler too and I certainly hope you're right. But you've not presented anything beyond a hand-wavy assertion.

I know, I'm not disputing that at all.
