Bitcoin cash had a huge run up but we have to keep in mind that in this space it is better to analyze gains with a BTC value instead of dollars...the first attempt of “cashening” led BCH to almost a 2:1 ratio with BTC which was pretty insane, we are nowhere near that ratio this time even though the $ price is pretty impressive as well.
BCH effectively works better at the moment for transferring value (nothing that Dash or Ltc can’t handle better anyway)...but I don’t like how the people behind it manipulate the community for fulfilling their purposes.
You should develop a coin for the best interest of the people who use it not for your mining business model.
