Bitcoin cash is now more profitable to mine than BTC

[Boris9]

Thoughts ?

All aboard ?

This is great news. BCH to the moon. I need to purchase some hashpower asap

[OneChain]

So....will this turn out into death spiral or will the hash rate between both chains reach equilibrium which is approximately at same proportions that BTC / BCH price?

I think BCC and BTC both have potential to rise up and in near future, I think these both cryptocurrencies will compete for each other.

do you need hardware to mine BCH or can you cloud mine

BCH use sha256 algorithm and can be mined by asics like bitcoin, here is a cloud mining for BCH https://pool.bitcoin.com/index_en.html

Thanks. I don't see BCH mining there, do you have to just buy hash then allocate?

Found it nevermind thanks lol. Duh

How many of the miners will stay with BTC when it's actually more profitable to mine BCH?

I imagine there'll be at least a few who aren't watching the numbers so closely, or don't have an automated method setup to switch between them. But in the long run, you'd be crazy to turn down extra profits if it's as easy as flipping a switch to mine BCH instead.

Either way, there'll probably be another big shakeup once Segwit2x comes around, if there's yet another hard fork creating a third option for miners.
