Bitcoin Cash (BCH)
Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is a cryptocurrency that emerged in 2017 as a fork of Bitcoin (BTC), designed to address Bitcoin’s scalability issues. By increasing the block size limit from 1 MB to 8 MB (and later to 32 MB), Bitcoin Cash allows more transactions to be processed in each block, resulting in faster transaction speeds and lower fees. This makes BCH particularly suited for everyday transactions and micropayments, offering an efficient and accessible alternative to Bitcoin. Despite its shared origins with Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash has developed its own community and vision, focusing on being a peer-to-peer electronic cash system that prioritizes usability and scalability.
