Bitocoin will be hardforked by ViaBTC and other supporters. It seems confirmed.

Bitcoin Cash, the hardforked Bitcoin is already on future market.

It marked 900 USD and it is currently around 450.
Things you have to be careful of:
Bitcoin price will consolidate after a while, it already went down about 10% after the announcement of bitcoincash.org.
Difference between these two:
I am not sure if BCC has security for replay attack, Bitcoin clearly has higher security. If the scaling is the only issue, there is still a case to use sidechain etc.
It is depending on how many people support BCC but I am guessing that people will sell BCC and put the money into BTC or altcoins, or cashout.
BCC will brings market cap, it is like free money for Bitcoin owners, I am curious that where it will go.
What is your thought?
