What about Litecoin as peer-to-peer electronic cash? I don't see what benefits Bitcoin Cash has over Litecoin. It seems like the original idea for Litecoin was that it could be used more for day to day transactions, by reducing the block time. I question the need for Bitcoin Cash to begin with, when Litecoin was already available. I am curious of your thoughts on that.
I also saw you mentioned Dash. Is there a reason you didn't also include Z-Cash in your short list (I am genuinely curious).
I am aware of the r/bitcoin vs r/btc controversy and understand the r/bitcoin censorship concern. On the other hand, r/btc is not censored but they seem so anti Bitcoin Core / Lightning Network, it looks to me like they don't consider the other side at all.
From what I can tell, the Lightning Network could be a scaling solution. It is awesome to know that many BCH devs aren't opposed to a lightning implementation on BCH. I'd love to see these communities converge.
That's the problem, bcashers ignore technical reality.
Actual pro-bitcoin altcoin project like Zcash and Litecoin are ignored for the altcoins that fell into the bcash camp and memes.
Litecoin is a better "bitcoin" than bitcoin cash, and with its move towards Mimblewimble Extension Block's, will have additional privacy that does not exist in bcash. But accepting that would require more a technical understanding of mathematics and cryptoeconomics.
