Only 3 changes from Bitcoin Core: a 90% blocksize decrease, BIP 300, BIP 301.
Everything else will remain the same as Core, and they'll even periodically rebase with new versions.
This essentially eliminates all core protocol development cost, and makes the choice between the two coins more straightforward. And its base layer will be more decentralized over the long run because of smaller blocks.
So, at the end of the day, it'll be Bitcoin's network effects advantages vs. eCash's (in my opinion) superior technology: a network of drivechain L2's.
There will be seven sidechains at launch:
Thunder- big blocks/low fees
Truthcoin- decentralized prediction market (actually decentralized, unlike Kalshi or Polymarket or Predyx. The truthcoin oracle has no singular point of failure.)
Zside- zcash clone privacy chain
Bitassets- NFTs, etc. some others...
And anyone with a creative idea can launch one in the future, instead of starting an altcoin.
I am too. Bitcoin has the benefits of brand name, history, and network effects.
However, Paul has fixed two mistakes that BCH made, in retrospect:
