We are at a point where general sentiment in the cryptosphere is at an all time low. BTCore is being propped up by tether but otherwise has been steadilty dropping in value and use. Alt coins have been suffering too.
On the other side, BCH sentiment is great. Folks here are optimistic, devs are active, updates are frequent and significant and arguable most importantly adoption is increasing at a high rate with new merchants, use cases and applications posted on a regular basis. For me however, the best thing about BCH is how darn usable it is as a currency. Even without 0-confirmations, BCH is so fast, so cheap and so secure and is just a pleasure to use.
This leads me to the point of this post: I think that the upcoming stress test could not come at a better time. People over at r/bitcoin are waking up to the lies and propaganda that is spread around in that subreddit and are coming here. Whether it's fame or infamy, BCH is being talked about by BTCore supporters more often. If you go to the r/bitcoin sub its full of posts slamming BCH. If you go to any post and read through the comments, BCH is mentioned frequently. Here in our own sub as well as other media forums, BCH is being artificially brigaded at levels that I have not seen before. And any publicity is good publicity for us right before a pivotal stress test.
We have the opportunity to show the cryptospace and the world that there is a crypto-currency that exists right now that can compete with Paypal and Credit Cards as a global payment processor. We have the ability to show them that the implementation of bigger blocks is the solution to the scaling problem and we can prove that potentially millions of transactions can be processed daily and this will not result in unreasonable fees and delays in the processing of transactions.
If you can afford it then please support the upcoming stress test by running a script or donating to someone who is capable of running a script themselves (obviously someone you trust). For just a few US dollars you can send out hundreds if not a couple thousand transactions.
For those of us that want to run our own scripts, I will try and write up a beginners guide at some point.
