Merchants and users are empowered with low fees and reliable confirmations. The future shines brightly with unrestricted growth, global adoption, permissionless innovation, and decentralized development. **Source**: bitcoincash.org https://bitcoincash.org Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is a cryptocurrency that shares many of the same characteristics as Bitcoin (BTC) yet also integrates a number of changes and features that set it apart. It is considered a 'fork' of Bitcoin, although proponents argue that Bitcoin Cash more closely adheres to the original vision of creating a peer-to-peer electronic cash system as laid out in a 2008 white paper written by the founder of the protocol, a person or group going by the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. https://www.bitcoin.com/bitcoin.pdf **Source**: bitcoin.com https://www.bitcoin.com/ For the full article, just click here. https://www.bitcoin.com/get-started/what-is-bitcoin-cash/ Know more about this peer to peer electronic cash, the Bitcoin Cash on whybitcoincash.com. https://whybitcoincash.com/ For other terms related to understanding BCH, just click this link. https://www.investopedia.com/terms/b/bitcoin-cash.asp ***How was BCH born?*** In October 2008, Satoshi Nakamoto published the famous whitepaper entitled “Bitcoin: A Peer to Peer Electronic Cash System”. In 2009, he released the first bitcoin software that powered the network, and it operated smoothly for several years with low fees, and fast, reliable transactions. Unfortunately, from 2016 to 2017, Bitcoin became increasingly unreliable and expensive. This was because the community could not reach consensus on increasing the network capacity. Some of the developers did not understand and agree with Satoshi’s plan. Instead, they preferred Bitcoin become a settlement layer. By 2017, Bitcoin dominance had plummeted from 95% to as low as 40% as a direct result of the usability problems. Fortunately, a large portion of the Bitcoin community, including developers, investors, users, and businesses, still believed in the original vision of Bitcoin -- a low fee, peer to peer electronic cash system that could be used by all the people of the world. On August 1st, 2017, we took the logical step of increasing the maximum block size, and Bitcoin Cash was born. Anyone who held Bitcoin at that time (block 478558) became an owner of Bitcoin Cash (BCH). The network now supports up to 32MB blocks with ongoing research to allow massive future increases. **Source**: bitcoincash.org https://bitcoincash.org ***BCH as Compared to BTC*** Let's have a brief comparison between Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin. Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is another cryptocurrency that is a fork of the original Bitcoin (BTC). It split from Bitcoin in August 2017. These two coins are very similar, but the main difference between BCH versus BTC is that BCH has an increased block size. The increase in block size (from 1 MB to 8 MB at the time of the fork - and now to 32 MB as of May 2018) means that more transactions can be processed within a single block. **Source**: coins.ph https://coins.ph See full article here: https://support.coins.ph/hc/en-us/articles/360000091341-What-is-Bitcoin-Cash-BCH-and-how-does-it-compare-with-Bitcoin- Know more the difference between Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash through the article, "Bitcoin vs. Bitcoin Cash: Why It’s Important for Investors To Know the Difference" written by Ryan Haar. https://time.com/nextadvisor/investing/cryptocurrency/bitcoin-vs-bitcoin-cash/amp/ **Other Videos About BCH** Let's discover random videos about BCH.
