How does BCH compare to Bitcoin during this bear phase?

[chainsniff]

While Bitcoin often acts as the primary defensive asset, BCH has occasionally outperformed on a relative basis during this cycle. This is partly because BCH reacts more to shifts in on-chain activity and transactional use, rather than purely macro narratives like ETFs or interest rates.

In periods where Bitcoin trades sideways, BCH can attract capital from traders looking for asymmetric upside without moving far out on the risk curve. That rotation dynamic helps explain why BCH can trend bullish even when BTC momentum stalls.

BCH is better than BTC got it

Not better — just different roles.

BTC = reserve, BCH = rotation play.

Cycles reward narratives, not absolutes.
