I was wondering why people are still mining bcash, even when it is less profitable according to http://fork.lol/

Currently, some 15% of mining power is working on bcash : http://fork.lol/pow/hashrate

Granted, it is a bit more profitable right now, but even when it's not, people keep mining it. One thing we (or at least, I) may have overlooked is Asicboost, which doesn't work anymore since Segwit was activated, but for all I know, it still work on bcash, so the profitability calculated by fork.lol may actually be wrong. Miners using Asicboost on bcash may indeed be earning more than if they would be mining Bitcoin.
