BCH is legit they're actually usable as digital cash and innovate on that front. Fees are very low and they just implemented "ALBA" blocks (dynamic blocks). Both XMR and BCH are close communities and collaborate sometimes. BCH users are often also XMR users.

They still have the same privacy problems as BTC. But their coinjoins don't have the significant expense that BTC does so you can keep doing them in the background. They also have ZK rollups on the horizon if I recall correctly.
