What is Bitcoin Cash?

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is a cryptocurrency created to decentralise cryptocurrency. It is the result of a 2017 Bitcoin ‘hard fork’, whereby an existing blockchain splits into two. Bitcoin Cash enables more transactions per block than Bitcoin, reducing fees and transaction times.

Like Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash is designed to be used as an inexpensive payment system. Transaction fees are generally lower and confirmations are much faster, typically taking just a few seconds.

Bitcoin Cash vs. Bitcoin: Key Differences and Similarities

Bitcoin Cash has increased the block size limit to 32 MB, enabling more transactions to be processed per block.

Unlike Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash does not use Segregated Witness (SegWit), a solution that enables more transactions per block. SegWit removes witness signatures from certain areas to increase the number of transactions a block can store.

At the time Bitcoin Cash was proposed, the average number of transactions per block on Bitcoin was between 1,000 and 1,500.

Is Bitcoin Cash Worth Having?

It depends on your market outlook, risk tolerance, and investing preferences. Bitcoin Cash experienced a significant increase in price through mid-2024, but that doesn’t mean it will continue.
