Nitrogen Sports to pay Bitcoin Cash/Bcash balances if integrated

[joker]

At the beginning of August this year there was a fork of the bitcoin network that created a new alt-coin called Bitcoin Cash or BCash (BCH). Anybody who owned bitcoin at the time of the hardfork, now also owns the same amount of this new currency. Over the weekend the price of Bcash went over $800 so it is definitely worth claiming your free coins if you have the knowhow.

While most of the major wallets have said that they will honour the hardfork and allow you to withdraw your Bcash balance, most gambling operators have ignored the chain split with the exception of Nitrogen Sports. While Nitrogen Sports have not said that they will allow you to withdraw you BCH/BCC. They have said that if they should integrate Bitcoin Cash in the future, then players who had balances at the first of August 2017, will also receive their free Bcash.

This is a good move by Nitrogen and one that will hopefully be followed by other gambling sites.

I agree that it's a nice gesture but what are the odds of Nitrogen Sports actually integrating Bitcoin Cash anytime soon? Surely it is more likely that they will integrate Ethereum or Litecoin sooner? Also, SegWit will likely activate this week, which will be a game changer for bitcoin. We will have the first beta Lightning Network wallets within a few weeks and then we'll all have access to free and unlimited BTC transaction over the LN. BCC integration won't happen.
