There’s ”’ONLY”’ one way to scale the goodness that is BTC: multiple chains IE; chain A to z, A1 to Z1, A2 to Z2, chain 208Z bonded in parallel to 209A, etc.. ”GET THE PICTURE!!! ”’THERE’S NO OTHER WAY!!! The explosive power of exponential processing growth (Moore’s law) will easily allow for this BTC 'fabric'. BTC’s small blocks are secure, and technically speaking, very easy to scale — infinitely!! Transactions will be assigned to chains according to BTC network congestion predictions. After conformations start, users can see what chain there transaction ended up on. As chain 'tips' fully confirm, they are attached like fabric — in parallel. Multiple chains done at the exact same time is the obvious and only way to scale BTC, and keep it the same as it is today. Some transactions can be spread out over multiple blocks of different chains, which further 'bakes in' immutable facts. Permanent indisputable peer to peer transactions, agreements, contracts, arrangements, etc., in the BTC 'fabric'. Increasing the size of the block is not necessary, nor is it advantageous.
BCC is more then a simple protest: it's years of frustration, and the pain of knowing how destructive SigWit is! Having said that; I sincerely hope they decide not to do the split. SigWit will easily and quickly reveal its true self, and serious long term scaling of BTC must be multiple chains bonded parallel like fabric which will soon become obvious even to the hard working non-inventive coders behind CORE. I'm learning, the older I get, that coders – as fascinating as they are to me – are like any other tradesmen; they're not dreamers and designers just hard workers – please no offense. '''LOOK!., It's real simple, ''''MAKE FABRIC!!, nice tight strong fabric! If the competition from a forked BTC is what it takes the whole community to wake up to the obvious, so be it. Obvious, meaning, multiple chains at the same time bonded in parallel. It's easier to mine fabric of small blocks then fabric of bigger blocks; '''so, BTC (core) will be able to compete with BCC if BTC moves to fabric; because, block size only goes so far, anyway! At the very best; increasing block size is only a stop gap measure.
Of course the block rewards will have to be divided between chains, otherwise it would dramatically increase the number of coins, which would grossly change BTC. This should go without saying, but!?%!?^%?&^?&?^#?? folks have trouble understanding or believing super simplicity is possible, although it will take oodles more computing power for even lower #'s of BTC. We hope the value dramatically increases once it’s known infinite scaling is easily possible! Everyone needs to remember two things: the explosive power of Moore's Law hasn't yet been realized – we're barely rounding the corner of the hockey stick; and electricity cost is dramatically too high due to the suppression of chemically assisted fission for the last 70 years. The GALT Chemical Reactor (now called LFTR) of the 1960's was one million times more energy dense then coal. Who really is John Galt. Ayn Rand was a close personal friend of Alvin Weinberg (the inventor of all forms of fission), it was no coincidence she used Galt as John's last name.
