Too Long; Didn't Read

Bitcoin cash is facing a schism. Developers on Bitcoin ABC seems to be completely oblivious to this threat, hence they are proposing to hardfork over non critical matters on Nov 15th. It is not clear what the other BCH implementations like Bitcoin Unlimited and the new Craig Wright project Bitcoin SV intends to do on Nov 15th. What is clear is that there is a good deal of hostility (<a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/959tbe/amaury_creator_of_bitcoin_cash_has_been_banned/" target="_blank">devs being banned from communication channels</a>, <a href="https://nchain.com/en/blog/bitcoin-sv-launch/" target="_blank">Faketoshi posturing</a>), and a high likelihood of Bitcoin Cash splitting into multiple chains. Various vulture chains have started to come out like <a href="https://twitter.com/CobraBitcoin/status/1032955956408274944" target="_blank">Bitcoin Cobra</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/BitcoinStash" target="_blank">Bitcoin Stash</a> trying to take advantage of the situation.
