I just looked into my crystal ball and an idea rushed into my mind.
While the bitcoin community is celebrating segwit activation and the recent price rally, the segwit2x agreement date is coming closer.
We know that the 2mb (8mb) hardfork is controversial and not supported by the core developers en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Segwit_support
But segwit2x announced they plan to hardfork a bigger block in November segwit2x.github.io/s...gwit2x-announce.html
I am seeing the possible scenarios:
1. Bitcoin forks a third chain Bitcoin Segwit2x.
2. Bitcoin hardforks to Segwit2x without creating a chain split.
3. Bitcoin Cash implements segwit via softfork before the segwit2x hardfork and claims they already are segwit2x and there wont be a hardfork at all.
4. Segwit2x supporters fork Segwit2x from Bitcoin Cash to not directly affect bitcoin with this controversial hardfork.
On Scenario 3 and 4 I would expect a pump for bitcoin cash, but really hard to guess the probability of it.

Seems like its because of this misleading article with a lot of FUD in it, promoting bch.
Signature data is not removed from the blockchain its inculded in the witness data of each block and can be downloaded and verified by every segwit ready node.

great rally for bch :) roger ver and friends making a ton of money right now.
segwit2x was cancled but its likely that somebody else will run the code anyway but it wont have much support.
And its also still possible that someone forks a segwit version from bch claiming to be segwit2x as well (just to pump bch).

Booked profts on bch. It's up nearly x10 and looks way overbought now. Being rational during time of high emotions and remember that this is still just a shitcoin with the minor feature "bigger blocks". There are so many other altcoins with better features. I dont believe in the flippening of bitmain asicboost coin.
Scenario 3 or 4 would be very interesting.
