Can someone who understands pros and cons of bcc vs btc explain to me ( us ) which one of the two is more likely to scale / win ?
Personally I think Bitcoin is quickly becoming the MySpace of CryptoCurrencies for example Monero offers a much better product funcionality-wise.
Is there a viable alternative to Coinbase? Their support is absurdly awful. Two months and they sent two auto-replies to a simple ticket that couldn't be answered by the knowledge base. They don't care about your money - so long as it's already in their vault.

Do you mean inflation ? Crypto currency space is new still, forks are innovation and competition. That is good.

The number of auditors is inversely proportional to the size of blocks.
If you don't think automated auditing of the mint by as many disparate entities as possible is a prerequisite of sound money, then you probably think BCC makes the right decisions. If you do, then BTC makes the right decisions.

How so? Can you elaborate ?
second: privacy even for regular law obeying citizens do you really want anyone to have access to how much CryptoCurrency you have and the record of all your transactions?
third: at the moment is ASIC resistant and anyone even using a desktop or laptop can mine, personally I think this is very important for effective distribution in less developed countries.
Does this mean that customers in a short position owe Bitcoin Cash?

It's an interesting read even if you don't care about shorts or bitcoin at all.

Then I'm really confused as to the relationship between the two. Here's Coinbase support posting a "how do I use GADX?" article: https://community.coinbase.com/t/what-is-gdax-how-do-i-use-i...
GADX is their trading platform. They don't plan on supporting trading with BCC. That being said, no, you don't own a short position. I don't see why that would even be related to this.
If I borrow your hen and it lays an egg and that hatches a chick, shouldn't I give you the chick back with the hen?

they are two diferent ways to solve the same scalability problem, Btc doubles the current number of transactions by increasing the block from 1mb to 2mb and adds a new service the segregated witnesses that allows off-the-chain private transactions, Bcc simply increases the block to 8mb for roughly 8x times more transactions.
Off the chain transactions ? Then what's the point of a blockchain ? Hmmm
