History and Future of Bitcoin Cash
Ever wondered why bitcoin cash has almost the same name as bitcoin? Ever wondered how they are related to each other? In this article I will explain to you with outmost simplicity so everyone could understand.
Bitcoin Cash like Bitcoin has it's own blockchain.It is younger than bitcoin since it was created at the end of year 2016. Back in the day were bitcoin cash wasn't still created ,there was a misunderstanding between developers of bitcoin on the proposed changes and with that being said a group of developers decided to FORK bitcoin for a creation of a new version with the same codes but has few enhancements.
I might as well explain what "FORK" means.
A fork is created when the original code of the blockchain is updated and only a few of the computers on the blockchain accepts the update which results to the updated nodes split off from the original blockchain and create a new blockchain and the coins on the blockchain becomes separate ,different and very unique from the ones on the original blockchain.
I might also explain what is a block chain.
On simple explanation a blockchain is where the transactions happens. The blockchain is decentralized meaning it is not owned by a single party, transactions are verified by computers that run the blockchain which can be owned by anyone and cannot be cannot be counterfeited because of the blockchain technology.
