The information provided on this article are only from an amateur view, and should not be used as a conclusion or judgement on the subject of this discuss.
Following the upgrade proposal on the Bitcoin Cash Difficulty Adjustment Algorithm (DAA) by lead developer Bitcoin ABC, Amaury Sechet, which was detailing written by @georgedonnelly here and translated to Germans language by @Telesfor here and several other languages. The Bitcoin cash community is up for a tough time that might lead to a lot of unwanted situation to this crypto currency called Bitcoin Cash BCH that we all cherished.
Since the announcement was made of the upgrade proposal, discussions concerning the Bitcoin cash DAA has course a serious debate among Bitcoin cash proponents and stakeholders. @georgedonnelly article revealed that the intention of Amaury Sechet was to fork away BCH for the creation of his coin which may be refer here as "Amaury coin". For this, Bitcoin cash proponents and stakeholders were advice to keep an eye on Amaury Sechet. But it seems we might have to look farther than that, based on the current situation on ground.
While this in-house fighting and quarreling is going on, Viabtc’s founder Haipo Yang has announced a new fork of BCH called Bitcoin Cat. According to News.bitcoin.com, Viabtc’s founder Haipo Yang has been toying with the idea of a new BCH fork. The Viabtc executive has been tweeting about the subject often and he also published a blog post on Medium about the experiment as well. On August 5, Haipo Yang tweeted:
"I am considering building a new Bitcoin fork inherited from BCH called Bitcoin Cat. It’s a temporary name. Cats are cute and harmless, so they won’t have a war".
Haipo Yang stated on his recent tweet that BCH need real leaders and that everyone who has love Bitcoin cash is welcome to join him and build CAT. On August 6, Haipo Yang dropped a more controversial tweets that made the Bitcoin Cat and the Bitcoin cash fork just more than an idea. According to him now is the time to make Bitcoin cash great again. His tweets reads
“If Bitcoin Cash removes the unspent transactions outputs UTXOs that never move since the fork, we can double the block reward and fund the foundation without the IFP and without breaking the 21M limit".
Should Haipo Yang's idea be implemented, Bitcoin Cat will be a third or even a fourth fork on Bitcoin cash BCH, and this is likely to be born on November 15 according to source.
Unlike Amaury Sechet that we can not tell where exactly he is heading, Haipo Yang's Bitcoin Cat fork away is a finalized idea. Haipo Yang proposed that the Bitcoin Cat will have a number of differences than BCH and other blockchains as well. He said that smart contracts will be important and the basic script operations on Bitcoin are insufficient. Also he thinks the mining algorithm should be further modified to be more ASIC-friendly in the future.
This is indeed tough time for Bitcoin Cash community ecosystem. A great time of uncertainty among Bitcoin Cash holders and users. Should oppositions prevail on Amaury Sechet proposals then a fork away for his coin is eminent through ABC. Amaury Sechet calculation is that Bitcoin Cash Node BCHN must acknowledge blocks originating from ABC, and not the other way around. What this means is that, should the BCHN has more hash than ABC going forward to November 15, an Amaury Sechet fork is inevitable. More worrisome is that should this split takes place, the BCHN chain might be cleared out if the BCH chain become longer than the BCHN chain after the split. Amaury Sechet is very uptimistic about this as he clearly stated on a meeting with Cointelegraph, that there is no way any trade in their correct brain will list an Asset that face a clear out. His position is that oppositions might be forced to execute a crisis hard fork to substain the chain.
Going by these developments within the Bitcoin Cash community, Will BCH survive a double split? With two hard fork aiming at BCH what will be the position of BCH among other giant crypto currencies going forward after the double fork. I don't have the technical expertise to address these questions, hence I leave these to those who has the technical know how to profer answers to.

Certainly, that's what we look forward to
A no-IFP chain, will surely appear, and probably be the most relevant.
There will be at least one miner who would not accept a block that just orphaned another, perfectly valid block for no good reason. From then on, we have two chains, and the mining power will balance the usual way.
It is not necessary to program a hard fork. A miner can choose which chain to extend by choosing which block to reference in his block header. This has always been the case. He can include any transaction, refuse any transaction, refuse any block. He is motivated by doing the right thing for the market, because if his own block is orphaned, the block reward goes down the drain.
In the current software you can specify which block to build on, or rather not to build on, with the command "invalidateblock". It "Permanently marks a block as invalid, as if it violated a consensus rule." This command can be issued in real time by the mining node operator.
Thank you so much for this information, you have provided deep insight into the matter. And thanks also for the tip
I believe BCH will pull out stronger
This may bring a difficult time to the bitcoin cash community. Two fork almost at the same time! But I trust the BCH community will thrive back and maintain its stand. It is a matter of time and the whole community will be able to determine this.
My brother this thing is a serious matter, greed is so much among BCH community
This is saddening. Similar matter like this also made MarcDeMesel not to have interest in BTC again
The issue now is that Amaury Sechet is not ready to back out of the proposal
Good article
Thanks for the encouragement
The most difficult part, is to make humans to agree, for long. Preferences, and egoism, create those kinds of results.
Egoism you said is the foundation of all the problems within the bitcoin cash ecosystem. Do you know this article was rejected to feature in the bitcoin cash community here on read.cash? Judge this yourself, is this article out of subject or misleading? There is total madness within the bitcoin cash community.
There is total madness, in human communities generally, nowadays.

Good article
You are welcome
Anyone can create a new coin at any time. You need node-software, miners and network. If there is only one miner (Haipo) and there is no network, the coin will not inspire trust, because the coin is centralised and depends 100% on the miner. The next question is, who should write the node software for it. I do not see any candidates. So from my point of view it is not a serious matter.
Thanks for the tip
You Haipo do not have the infrastructural power to succeed should he venture into creating a new coin
Yeah i agree hoping bch will come up again and to the infinity and beyond
That's what we all went

Haipo has indefinitely put on hold his Bitcoin Cat concept.
That's good to hear, I was almost becoming restless due to the situation. If bitcoin cash community could be in a battle on two fronts, that might be terrible
B h will come oit strong
