Well what's BTC and what isn't? The bcash people still desperately cling to the r/btc handle for their subreddit.

  If you know your history then you should know that r/btc predates the fork by multiple years, and that it existed as an uncensored subreddit and a refuge from r/bitcoin where you got banned simply for voicing an opinion. It still lives on as an uncensored subreddit where all forks of Bitcoin may be discussed.

    Yeah but they use it mostly to represent Bitcoin Cash. The history is irrelevant; bcash doesn't stand on its own legs and the misnomer is used to trick people. It's dishonest.

      It's so telling when you continue to use the slur "bcash" and accuse others of being dishonest. And focusing so much on a subreddit that's not tied to the project no more than r/bitcoin is to Bitcoin, while dismissing it's existential reason as "irrelevant", is tiring.

        Bcash is not a slur. It is literally what the project is called by everybody except the bcash people trying to trick people into think it is related to bitcoin.

          It's not by any reputable exchange. Only counting "everybody" as people on your side is common in cults, but is rarely indicative of the real world.
