Bitcoin vs. Bitcoin Cash: What's the Difference?
Since its inception, there have been questions surrounding Bitcoin’s ability to scale effectively. Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency that exists within a network of computers, within the blockchain. This is revolutionary ledger-recording technology. It makes ledgers far more difficult to manipulate for a couple of reasons: The reality of what has transpired is verified by majority rule, not by an individual actor. And this network is decentralized; it exists on computers all over the world.
The problem with this technology is that it’s slow. Like, really slow, especially in comparison to banks that deal with credit card transactions. Visa processes 150 million transactions per day, averaging out to roughly 1,700 transactions per second. And their capability far surpasses that, at 24,000 transactions per second.
How many transactions can the Bitcoin network process per second? Seven. Transactions take about 10 minutes to process. And as the network of Bitcoin users grows, waiting times will get longer, because there are more transactions to process without a change in the underlying technology that processes them.
The latest debates around Bitcoin’s technology have been concerned with this central problem of scaling and increasing the speed of the transaction verification process. There are two major solutions to this problem, either to make the amount of data that need to be verified in each block smaller, making transactions faster and cheaper or to make the blocks of data bigger, so that more information can be processed at one time.
The Difference Between Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash
In mid July 2017, mining pools and companies representing roughly 80% to 90% of Bitcoin computing power voted to incorporate a technology known as a segregated witness, called SegWit2x. SegWit2x makes the amount of data that needs to be verified in each block smaller, by removing signature data from the block of data that needs to be processed in each transaction, and having it attached in an extended block. Signature data has been estimated to account for up to 65% of data processed in each block, so this is not an insignificant technological shift. Talk of doubling the size of blocks from 1mb to 2mb in November has ramped up, and is expected. This would also go some ways in improving Bitcoin’s scalability. In mid-October, Bitcoin scientists from Bitcoin Unlimited revealed they had mined the world's first 1GB block, 1,000 times bigger than the normal size.
Bitcoin Cash is a different story. Bitcoin Cash was started by Bitcoin miners and developers equally concerned with the future of the cryptocurrency, and its ability to scale effectively. These individuals had their reservations about the adoption of a segregated witness technology, though. They felt as though SegWit2x did not address the fundamental problem of scalability in a meaningful way, nor did it follow the roadmap initially outlined by Satoshi Nakamoto, the anonymous party that first proposed the blockchain technology behind cryptocurrency. Furthermore, the process of introducing SegWit2x as the road forward was anything but transparent, and there were concerns that its introduction undermined the decentralization and democratization of the currency.
On August 1st, some miners and developers initiated what is known as a hard fork, effectively creating a new currency: Bitcoin Cash. Bitcoin Cash has implemented an increased block size of 8mb, to accelerate the verification process, with an adjustable level of difficulty to ensure the chain’s survival and transaction verification speed, regardless of the number of miners supporting it. This has raised concerns about the security of Bitcoin Cash.
The Future of Cryptocurrency
This development could mean any number of things for the future of cryptocurrency. The situation is very fluid, and market valuations are both constantly calibrating and volatile. It’s going to be difficult to get a clear picture until Bitcoin Cash has been running for a while (or fails), the impact of Bitcoin's segregated witness technology is assessed, and the size of Bitcoin's blocks are doubled.
In a blog post earlier this week titled “The Crypto Currency Debate: Future of Money or Speculative Hype?”, “dean of valuation” and NYU Stern Professor Aswath Damordan said that the future of cryptocurrency as a currency, as opposed to a speculative asset as it is so often treated, depends on cryptocurrency developers thinking of their technology as a “transaction medium and acting accordingly.” Both of these moves seem to be aimed at improving cryptocurrency technology as a medium of exchange.
Improving cryptocurrency as a transaction medium will depend on maintaining the high level of security that Bitcoin has always ensured, while also improving transaction speeds. Bitcoin will continue to be highly secure, but how much its transaction speeds will improve is unclear. Bitcoin Cash, once its difficulty has adjusted, could have transactions processing in two minutes and 30 seconds. The security of the Bitcoin Cash blockchain, though, is unclear.
It will also depend on miners’ and users’ vision for the currency. If Bitcoin really does undermine the decentralized nature of the network, and the democratic possibilities of the blockchain technology, people may look elsewhere for a cryptocurrency with more exciting potential.

Why Bitcoin Cash Is Not Bitcoin [BTC vs. BCH – Differences That You Should Know]
The crypto-sphere is heating up and simultaneously becoming more confusing as it evolves.
I am sad to see how the viruses of confusion and myth are purposely injected into the ecosystem and how the whole system is manipulated as well as hijacked on a regular basis.
Specifically, I am talking about the recent insane price spike of Bitcoin Cash and the doomed price fall of Bitcoin in just a matter of hours.
Some of you who are old players of the crypto-sphere must have benefitted from this sudden rise and fall, but I think it’s not good for newcomers, and it’s not healthy for Bitcoin in the long term.
That’s why in this write-up I wish to convey some of my thoughts on how Bitcoin Cash is not Bitcoin. And I also want to clarify why the newcomers should not fall prey to the Bitcoin Cash PR campaign.
For the latecomers, I want to first explain what Bitcoin Cash is and show you some facts. Then, I’ll explain Bitcoin and leave it to you to decide for yourself.
Who/What is Bitcoin Cash?
Bitcoin Cash is a Bitcoin fork which was created this year on the 1st of August by a minority group of influential miners, developers, investors, and users who were against the agreed consensus of SegWit implementation to scale Bitcoin.
Namely, there are three main players in the Bitcoin Cash community – Roger Ver, Jihan Wu, and Deadal Nix.
They decided to fork the original Bitcoin blockchain and create a new version called “Bitcoin Cash” (aka BCH) with an adjustable block size up to 8 MB blocks.
Some of the benefits & features of Bitcoin Cash…
This on-chain increase in the ability of Bitcoin Cash provides several benefits to its users against ‘Bitcoin’, but these benefits come at a huge price that its users have to pay. (I will explain this ‘huge price’ further in the article.)
- On-chain scalability
- New transaction signatures
- Emergency Difficulty Adjustment (EDA)
- Decentralized development
For more details, read our extensive guide on Bitcoin Cash:
Price One Needs To Pay To Enjoy BCH Benefits
Ignoring the fact that many of you would have made a good amount of money in the recent Bitcoin Cash rally, one needs to pay a huge cost for using Bitcoin Cash.
This cost cannot be measured in dollars, euros, or yens, but instead, it is a cost that you pay by compromising the original dream of Satoshi Nakamoto – to make an uncensorable alternative monetary system which isn’t controlled by an individual or a group of people.
Some of you might say that I am incorrect because Bitcoin Cash’s official site claims that they are carrying forward Satoshi’s Vision by stating:
Some of the developers
Bitcoin Cash is the continuation of the Bitcoin project as peer-to-peer digital cash.
But actually speaking, they are not even close to Satoshi’s original vision of decentralized and uncensored money.
Bitcoin Cash is extremely censored.
Wait! Some of you might say that I am biased and I am just a Bitcoin fan, but I have facts!
Want To Know The Facts?
1. A decentralized cryptocurrency having a CEO? Really.
Do you really need a CEO for a currency? If you do, then what’s the difference between a business and a crypto?

Very creepy and immature rambling, hallmark of $BCH poor leadership 🤡$BCH BUYERS MUST READ pic.twitter.com/HIDdbaoaxU
— Francis Pouliot (@francispouliot_) November 12, 2017
2. Centralized mining
Bitcoin Cash mining is highly centralized. If you look at the above image, you will certainly be able to put in perspective what I am talking about.
This is the hash power distribution for Bitcoin Cash mining for the last 144 blocks mined.
If we combine the hash power of Antpool, ViaBTC, and BTC.com, which makes more than 50% hash power, this is detrimental for any coin. To make a 51% attack on Bitcoin Cash would be a decision of three mining parties coming together.
Forgot to mention. BCH is a lot more miner centralized. Because its network hashrate is a lot less than BTC, a small BTC pool can 51% attack it. So it's security is weak because of that. Litecoin doesn't have this problem because Litecoin dominates Scrypt hashing.
— Charlie Lee [LTC] (@SatoshiLite) November 12, 2017
The argument is that Bitcoin also had such hashrate distribution in its early days; but don’t forget that Bitcoin was trading in pennies at that time. Anyone attacking BTC at that time had no incentive in doing so because it was almost worthless.
But now that Bitcoin Cash is trading well above $1000, it’s very susceptible to 51% attacks, which is not good. Read more about 51% attacks here.
3. Total full nodes are fewer than Bitcoin
Bitcoin has more than 10,000 active full nodes running, which is one of the most important factors of a truly decentralized currency. This means that anyone attacking Bitcoin would need to have the ability to hijack more than 50% of the 10,000 nodes that are running across the globe.
On the other hand, Bitcoin Cash only has around 1200 nodes as per Coin.Dance’s node summary.
4. Hard forks without polls
Who does hard forks or upgrades in the currency protocols without polls?
Well, Bitcoin Cash does.
Bitcoin Cash had their hard fork (or protocol upgrade) on 13th November 2017.
The upgrade/fork was done to change the underlying mining algorithm to make it more competitive against Bitcoin and to prevent it from miners’ abuse in the event of reduced or increased difficulty. Read more about the Bitcoin Cash fork here.
Well, I am not against Bitcoin Cash changing something and trying to be competitive, but they should not try being competitive in this way – by doing things without polling the community.
If something is getting upgraded in the protocol, then it has to happen with proper polling and agreements. But this official write-up shows that they didn’t have any such polls.
Also, this write-up gives a hint that there is actually no need for polling because their community is so small and censored. In reality, there are only three individuals who made the decision. (Their names aren’t there but everyone knows who these three were – Roger Ver, Jihan Wu, and Deadal Nix.)
You can see how easy it is to upgrade Bitcoin Cash. Their community is comprised of 3 people. They are the miners, the developers, and the users. Funny!!
Now Let’s See… Who/What is Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is the DADDY of cryptocurrencies. Some of the facts that make Bitcoin truly decentralized and much better than Bitcoin Cash are:
- It is truly decentralized with its hash power widely distributed when compared to Bitcoin Cash. See here for the hash power distribution of Bitcoin which makes it quite difficult for a single mining rig to overpower others with a 51% rate.
- It has (by far) the most number of full nodes in this crypto-sphere which makes it difficult to be attacked by governments or centralized organizations.
- Bitcoin continues to live on Satoshi’s original code of 1 MB blocks and simultaneously keeps exploring new avenues for off-chain scalability solutions.
- Bitcoin is not a company, and hence, no CEO or certain group of people control it.
- Bitcoin upgrades or forks happen due to pollings and BIP proposals which are transparent for all to see. Track the polls here.
- Additionally, Bitcoin has no direct ties to Roger Ver or some other human, unlike Bitcoin Cash. Of course, Satoshi Nakamoto was there in the beginning, but he/she did the smart thing by not revealing his/her identity because he/she well understood how important it is for a nationless currency to not to have any strings attached to any single entity.
I know that some of you might be thinking that I am a huge Bitcoin fan and that’s why I am biased towards Bitcoin Cash, but I want you to make one thing clear: I am not really that biased.
I certainly think that Bitcoin Cash has a future, but if it is trying to be ‘Bitcoin’ and continue down this same path that it’s on now, it’s not going to end well.
If you are a Bitcoin Cash fan, then you should try to convince the community that BCH is BCH… it can’t be Bitcoin. And if Bitcoin Cash continues to be an altcoin and not attack Bitcoin, then I don’t think there are any problems.
Even Andreas suggested this to both communities.
Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash will coexist and serve different use cases, just like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Its not a zero sum game. Work on building your project, not on destroying the other
On the other hand, I am not naive or ignorant about current challenges that Bitcoin is facing in terms of scalability (despite SegWit implementation).
But let’s remember that it wasn’t always so easy to send emails in the early days of the internet. Similarly, Bitcoin will scale with the much-anticipated Lightning networks or sidechains in the future. And yes, those scaling solutions need to happen soon, otherwise, there will be more drama like this for ages to come.
Also for the newcomers: Stay away from Roger Ver’s owned domain Bitcoin.com that is trying spread this FUD and exclaiming that ‘Bitcoin Cash is Bitcoin‘.
So that’s all from my side in this article.
If you are with me and understand Bitcoin’s true nature, then do retweet/share this write-up with the Bitcoin community, and join hands in finding permanent solutions to Bitcoin’s scalability.

Very nice article. Totally agree .
Bch is just manipulation and fud
Glad, When I saw firstly Bitcoin cash option in my ZebPay account I thought of its something new to look for and leave it then just like that. Today I found this article very helpful to know more about BCH.
Please i am having difficulty sending bitcion on blockchain ,the last time i use my blokchain was march
Sudhir Khatwani says
Hi Sudhir, how can i connect with you? have invested money in Gainbitcoin which is stuck.
Sudhir Khatwani says
I cannot help in that regard.
Very relevant article. This debate is long not over yet. It is difficult to find an objective perspective on this debate. This is more than just a debate; it is an active and potentially destructive tug-of-war. The sad thing is that as long as Bitcoin core struggles with slow confirmations (Scalability) and inflated transaction fees, and in so doing compromise its original core principals, then BCH as well as future potential Hard Fork derivatives might find sympathetic support in the crypto community. The sooner these issues can be addressed effectively, the sooner the public can rally behind the core movement and consolidate support and resources behind BTC.
Very good article
Simona Smith says
This is one of the best articles about Bitcoin Cash that I have read. Really thanks for sharing this valuable info. I consider myself an expert with Bitcoin Cash now. Cheers!
Damian Williamson says
I cannot say this strongly enough: Since BCH is a separate currency, it should not be allowed to use the name Bitcoin at all. Just adding the word Cash after something existing is a deliberate ploy to confuse and trap those in the market who do not know better.
IMO there should be a number of civil suits taken out against BCH for their deceptive naming and marketing. People have suffered losses.
Sudhir Khatwani says
Agree and Cheers but Cannot make a suit.
Also, do you bit by telling others about it and keep it simple. Just consider BCH as an altcoin that’s it.
Damian Williamson says
Also, IMO BCH is quite short-sighted. If BCH doesn’t have people paying fees (or just has lower fees) for transactions then after blockchain rewards are eventually dropped, who will mine it?
RE: Transactions stuck in the pool, there has always been the possibility that transactions made with a low fee may take a long time to confirm. Bitcoin Core wallet even has a written warning regarding never confirming transactions. Just pay the fee, it pays the miners.
Lighting network has a CEO ? Are you not aware or you skipped it intentionally ?
Sudhir Khatwani says
Yeah, I know.
But the implementation will be decentralized. Read more about how Lightning network payment channel works.
Just a confused guy says
Read about who is being the lightning framework and see which company has the most no of developers in bitcoin core.
Satoshi nakamoto himself wanted to get rid of the blocksize in (his) future – since the number of trxs back then were not too high.
A simple google search might help u.
The hash power distribution of Bitcoin looks similar to BCH — get AntPool, BTC.com, ViaBTC and BTC.TOP and you have majority.
I’ve been involved with Bitcoin (lurking) since prior to the coin was mined. I strongly disagree with this article. Bitcoin cash is Bitcoin. Segwit by default makes what is calling itself “bitcoin” not bitcoin.
hmm.. so, since segwit solves malleability thus allowing secure sidechains and since on-chain scaling to millions tx/sec is not possible, how do you figure that bitcoin cash will scale to that usage?
Sudhir Khatwani says
Couldn’t quite understand your question.
And what about Bitcore (BTX)? The best tech out of BTC,BTG,BCH. BTX appears to have an intentionally suppressed value. For months there has been an incorrect circulating supply/market cap on coinmarketcap (BTX should be in top 50 coins for months now). It is a more advanced coin with compounding Airdrops every Monday and yet you have never heard of it. Obviously, whales with lined pockets influence the monetary value of a coin.
Sudhir Khatwani says
I know about it but not very confident about what they are doing.
will bitcoin cash price also be high as bitcoin in the future
Sudhir Khatwani says
But doesn’t looks like…
will bitcoin cash price also be high as bitcoin in the future?
i meAN LIKE RISING TO $10,000
Sudhir Khatwani says
Free market economy…cannot predict…like that..
Chris Bell says
Incredibly helpful. My friend tried to tell me that BTC would go to zero and BCH was going to take over. That’s why I searched and found this article. You explain the difference perfectly and I like how you tried to stay unbiased.
Sudhir Khatwani says
I am sorry, but this article has a lot of hear say and I think beats around the bush too much.
When a thing gets too complex look for the bottom line, here it is:
BTC legacy has slow (sometimes days) transactions and expensive fees. It has been hijacked by a team of developers with ulterior motives (Blockstream).
BCH is fast cheap and reliable.
If BTC legacy was truly about Satoshi’s vision then they would have increased the proverbial block size, instead they created a very complicated “solution” ( segwit) for a simple problem.
Stay sharp kids!
EXCELLENT ARTICLE! EVERYTHING YOU SAID IS 100% TRUE 👏
Nice post. BCH is not decentralized and thus a violation of the philosophy of crypto currencies in general… people trying to take advantage of others is always a thing. I’d love to see BTC go get more popular.
Sudhir Khatwani says
Wait and Let the market forces come into the play.
Democracy is inefficient. While we may not be happy with potentially corrupt centralized control it’s good at making needed changes quickly.
Now that Wall Street and big bank money is in the game they’re going to want the more centralized currencies. End users also want lower fees. If BTC can make changes to scale transactions lower fees then they’ll stay relevant. I’d say they have 3-6 months now that coinbase/gdax has added BCH. There’s no come back if BCH passes BTC in market cap. The good news is that more miners will switch to BCH and decentralize it.
Market forces can lead to the adoption of technology that i s sub optimal. e.g. Betamax was better technology then VHS, HD DVD a was better format than blu-ray.
If that’s good or not depends on your feelings. If you want the best technically good and the market doesn’t (the majority of people who would use a fast low fee transaction crypto, probably don’t care about decentralisation(they currently use Visa or MasterCard, anyway.)
Sudhir Khatwani says
Yeah, market forces matters but people who don’t care about decentralization don’t need cryptocurrencies and should continue being the slaves of traditional banking.
yeah, totally agree – the main thing to remember here is that there is a serious problem with BTC right now in high transaction costs and slowness. I also agree that on-chain scaling won’t work at global adoption rates, which means that an off-chain solution is mandatory – think of the chain as the court system and the side-chains (like lightning network) as the contracts between entities. Most folks never need to go to court unless there’s a major disagreement, they just honor their contracts mutually and everyone is happy. If a lightning transaction runs into a dispute or other issue then it can be settled on the chain. Also, the chain is there to allow payment channels to close. If LN can be successful soon and folks can really see benefits like lower costs and higher throughput then we all win.
Sudhir Khatwani says
Yeah that the point and true also. Waiting for Segwit and LN full-fledged
reposted from another forum:
A common misconception I see when people talk about future scaling of Bitcoin is the number of transactions per second you can get with any given blocksize. The argument typically goes something like “3 tps today, 5 tps with Segwit, 10 tps if you also double the blocksize”. Which is technically accurate, and the only real ways to scale right now, but it does not mean that this is the best way to keep scaling beyond the near future. Even the maximum 256 MB block size supported by certain clients would add less than 1000 tps capacity, while at the same time increase the size of the blockchain by over 13 TB per year.
The smart way to scale Bitcoin usage for payment purposes at 1000 tps and beyond is, as most Bitcoin developers and many users have already realized, by using a network of bi-directional payment channels, such as those used by the Lightning Network – first envisioned by Joseph Poon and Thaddeus Dryja, this is currently an active development project headed by Rusty Russell. I have been watching this project since it was first announced back in 2015, and I am increasingly confident that this approach is in fact the only realistic way to scale Bitcoin to something that can be used daily by literally every single person on the planet – even to buy their coffee. And if your goal is having a global payment network usable for everyone, that is how high you have to aim.
It is important to emphasize that this is still on-chain scaling even if the payments are not individually inscribed on the blockchain. That is, we are not talking of “Bitcoin as a settlement network” but “Bitcoin as a globally-scaling payment network with a blockchain primarily used for settlement transactions”. Any number of payments can pass back and forth through the payment channels, and after the initial funding transaction, nothing further is inscribed to the blockchain until the final outcome of a specific channel has been determined – at which point, the balance of the payment channel is settled on the blockchain. And while a channel may ideally simply remain open indefinitely, sending and receiving what is effectively the same coins an arbitrary number of times, realistically it will at some point always be closed and committed.
Not only does this mean that the vast majority of payments can safely happen without being inscribed individually; they will also happen near-instantaneously, only limited by network delay. Furthermore, the simple fact that the history of every individual payment is no longer public record adds significant fungibility to Bitcoin, as to the best of my knowledge, Lightning payments could only be tracked if they were intercepted live, if at all.
As such, the “scaling debate” should ideally be held based on the understanding that when Lighting is ready for use, even an avid Bitcoin user would typically only need to make at most a handful of blockchain transactions for payment purposes per year in order to open and close Lightning channels. If you were to limit the scope as such, it would largely reduce the debate to “what blockchain storage scaling do we need until Lightning is ready” and “what blockchain storage scaling does Lightning need to scale and operate safely” – neither of which I will attempt to address here.
However, before all of this can happen, what Lightning needs is Segwit. Non-malleable transactions are what make this possible, and if Segwit is not active by the time Lightning is ready to use it, that will be an incredible defeat for Bitcoin in general. There is still time, and it could happen as soon as with BIP148 on August 1st, or with BIP149 or similar BIP8-based activation possibly as early as November 16th if that fails. Alternatively, it could happen by throwing the miners a 2MB bone so they activate Segwit voluntarily with the SegWit2x/New York Agreement/”Barrycoin” proposal.
Ultimately, all of the alternatives have their own risks and significant detractors, but I hope that regardless of which of them end up gaining the most momentum, the rest of the ecosystem – that is, the miners, developers, economic actors and ultimately the end-users – will yield and move with them, so that any destructive chain splits can be avoided and Segwit can be activated as safely as possible.
I thought that I was going to learn the difference between BTC and BCH, instead I get a lesson BTC?
Bitcoin vs Bitcoin Cash — what’s the difference?
The Merkle
Bitcoin is the largest and most valuable cryptocurrency in the world. It began its journey with the promise of offering a fast and cheap method of payment. But Bitcoin transactions are far from cheap and fast anymore due to the currency’s technical limitations — a problem Bitcoin Cash is trying to solve.
So the question becomes, “What are the differences in Bitcoin vs Bitcoin Cash?” The issue with Bitcoin is the small 1 MB block size limit. This makes it painfully slow, as the currency is said to be capable of processing only seven transactions per second. For comparison, Visa can handle 24,000 transactions in the same time. Bitcoin transactions also take 10 minutes to process and have become expensive because of high demand — the average fee is more than $6.
A group of influential miners, developers, and investors were fed up with Bitcoin’s problems and concerned with its ability to scale. On August 1, 2017, they initiated what is known as a hard fork in the Bitcoin blockchain, which resulted in a new currency being born: Bitcoin Cash.
What is cryptocurrency?
What makes them different is that Bitcoin Cash has a block size limit of 8 MB — eight times more than Bitcoin. This allows it to process more transactions per day, speed up processing times, and reduce fees. Transaction fees come in at around $0.20, making them much cheaper when compared to those of its rival. But they will increase once more people start using the currency.
Hacker Noon
When it comes to speed and price for Bitcoin vs Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Cash has an advantage over Bitcoin. It is becoming extremely popular among users and has been increasing in value even since its introduction. But like Bitcoin, it has its share of problems. The increased block size could have a centralizing effect and reduce the attack resistance of the network. Bitcoin hasn’t been around for long, so we’ll have to wait until it sees more daily transactions to find out if that will actually happen.
So in comparing Bitcoin vs Bitcoin Cash, the truth is Bitcoin Cash is not better or worse than Bitcoin. It’s just different. The two can co-exist on the market, along with many other cryptocurrencies including Ripple and Ethereum, to name a few. But the important thing to remember is that despite having similar names, they are two entirely separate currencies.
Bitcoin vs. Bitcoin Cash: 5 Things Bitcoiners Need to Know
Bitcoin vs. Bitcoin Cash (BTC vs. BCH)
In a move that has been anticipated for months, Bitcoin has officially split. Called a “hard fork,” Bitcoin (BTC) now has a separate competing cryptocurrency vying for the market called Bitcoin Cash (BCH). The BTC vs. BCH divide has now officially begun, with a wide range of implications for both the current state of Bitcoin and the future. The full implications of Bitcoin vs. Bitcoin Cash will be revealed as time goes on, but BCH futures are definitely on the minds of coin holders and miners as the cryptocurrency faces a major split.
Seeing as how the cryptocurrency market is one of the most exciting and active ones in 2017 (which is saying a lot, considering the success of the market recently) let’s go through five things that Bitcoin owners and potential buyers need to know about Bitcoin vs. Bitcoin Cash.
What Caused the Split?
As is usually the case with these cryptocurrencies, there’s a lot of technical word vomit you have to sift through if you want to get to the bottom of the story, but we’ll break things down so the layperson can understand the general issues at stake.
A minority group of developers were fed up with high transaction fees and the block size limit of Bitcoin, which is a hard cap on how large blocks can be, with an assortment of arguments both for and against their size being locked down. (Source: “Bitcoin has split in two, so you can have double the cryptocurrency,” The Verge, August 1, 2017.)
That’s the long and short of it. The group that wanted changes to come to Bitcoin felt the best recourse was instead to go with the hard fork option and sprout Bitcoin Cash, and that’s how we ended up where we are today.
This Has Happened Before
It’s not uncommon for these types of internal squabbles in the cryptocurrency market to evolve into full-blown splits.
Ethereum (ETH), the second largest cryptocurrency by market cap, had a similar split that resulted in the creation of Ethereum Classic (ETC).
Also Read:
This came about as a result of a similar dispute about just how best to manage the currency, with some members preferring to splinter off rather than follow the original coin in directions they did not support.
Which is to say that this is not an unprecedented event, and both ETH and ETC survived the aftermath of the split, closely mirroring each other in terms of value percentage gains and losses over the past year.
What Does the Bitcoin Split Mean for Owners?
Well, that’s where things get a little tricky.
For owners who control their own private keys, those same keys can be used to spend their newly created BCH.
For those who own Bitcoin but don’t control the keys, then whether or not they have Bitcoin Cash depends on whether the wallet or platform they’ve stored their coins in is Bitcoin Cash-friendly. The only way to know for sure is to check the policy of the wallet or platform where the coin is stored.
Another implication is that some exchanges won’t accept Bitcoin Cash. The world’s most popular exchange, Coinbase, has rejected BCH. So coin owners will have to find a suitable Bitcoin Cash exchange to play around with the currency.
Bitfinex, which has nearly a third of U.S.-dollar bitcoin trade volume, is undecided on how it will handle the BCH situation. (Source: “Bitcoin falls, futures for new ‘bitcoin cash’ briefly leap nearly 50% as ‘miners’ officially split currency,” CNBC, August 1, 2017.)
Bitcoin Cash Futures
The BCH price, like all cryptocurrencies, is volatile. BCH hit over $400.00 per coin before crashing down closer to $200.00, all in the span of a single day.
This makes Bitcoin Cash futures hard to predict, but if the ETC vs. ETH split is anything to go off of, then expect the BCH price to closely mirror the BTC price, at least for the next little while. As the two grow further apart and differentiate themselves, that will of course change, but their gains and losses are likely to be about on par with each other following the rapid-fire trading that the BCH price is certain to undergo for the next few days.
BTC Futures
But what does Bitcoin vs. Bitcoin Cash mean for the BTC price?
Right now, it’s caused a little bit of a slowdown and will likely hurt the progress of BTC for the immediate future. But as the hype begins to die down, expect Bitcoin to resume its current trajectory, with large gains and equally large losses coming in at unexpected times, while BTC remains one of the most intriguing plays on the market due to its volatility and high growth potential.

Repair the Yahoo Search App.
Yahoo Search App from the Google Play Store on my Samsung Galaxy S8+ phone stopped working on May 18, 2018.
I went to the Yahoo Troubleshooting page but the article that said to do a certain 8 steps to fix the problem with Yahoo Services not working and how to fix the problem. Of course they didn't work.
I contacted Samsung thru their Samsung Tutor app on my phone. I gave their Technican access to my phone to see if there was a problem with my phone that stopped the Yahoo Search App from working. He went to Yahoo and I signed in so he could try to fix the Yahoo Search App not working. He also used another phone, installed the app from the Google Play Store to see if the app would do any kind of search thru the app. The Yahoo Search App just wasn't working.
I also had At&t try to help me because I have UVERSE for my internet service. My internet was working perfectly. Their Technical Support team member checked the Yahoo Search App and it wouldn't work for him either.
We can go to www.yahoo.com and search for any topic or website. It's just the Yahoo Search App that won't allow anyone to do web searches at all.
I let Google know that the Yahoo Search App installed from their Google Play Store had completely stopped working on May 18, 2018.
I told them that Yahoo has made sure that their Yahoo members can't contact them about anything.
I noticed that right after I accepted the agreement that said Oath had joined with Verizon I started having the problem with the Yahoo Search App.
No matter what I search for or website thru the Yahoo Search App it says the following after I searched for
www.att.com.
WEBPAGE NOT AVAILABLE
This webpage at gttp://r.search.yahoo.com/_ylt=A0geJGq8BbkrgALEMMITE5jylu=X3oDMTEzcTjdWsyBGNvbG8DYmyxBHBvcwMxBHZ0aWQDTkFQUEMwxzEEc2VjA3NylRo=10/Ru=https%3a%2f%2fwww.att.att.com%2f/Rk=2/Es=plkGNRAB61_XKqFjTEN7J8cXA-
could not be loaded because:
net::ERR_CLEARTEXT_NOT_PERMITTED
I tried to search for things like www.homedepot.com. The same thing happened. It would say WEBPAGE NOT AVAILABLE. The only thing that changed were all the upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols.
Then it would again say
could not be loaded because:
net::ERR_CLEARTEXT_NOT_PERMITTED
This is the same thing that happened when Samsung and At&t tried to do any kind of searches thru the Yahoo Search App.
Yahoo needs to fix the problem with their app.

What is Bitcoin Cash? BCH vs Bitcoin
Bitcoin Cash is a hard fork of Bitcoin that has 8MB block sizes instead of 1MB.
The Bitcoin Cash block time is about 10 minutes.
What is Bitcoin Cash?
Bitcoin Cash arose as an alternative to Bitcoin, and it’s currently between the third and second most valuable cryptocurrency in the world by market cap, after Bitcoin and Ethereum. The founders of Bitcoin Cash created the alternative cryptocurrency on August 1, 2017 to combat the rise in transaction wait times and fees on the original Bitcoin network. Bitcoin Cash increases the number of transactions that can be processed per block.
In this “What is Bitcoin Cash” guide, we’ll go over the history of Bitcoin Cash, its current situation, and how it compares to the original Bitcoin.
The Problem: Why Create Bitcoin Cash?
It’s no secret that BItcoin has a scalability problem .
As the currency has grown in popularity, so have the number of transactions taking place on the network, and Bitcoin is currently pushing the limits of its software.
The main problem is Bitcoin imposes a hard limit on the size of a block, the place where transaction information gets stored. Currently, blocks on the Bitcoin blockchain are limited to 1 MB in size.
Transactions on Bitcoin Over Time
Why would Bitcoin limit the number of transactions the network can process?
Well, since Bitcoin uses a distributed ledger, every user on the network needs to download and keep a copy of the entire Bitcoin transaction history. Allowing unlimited transactions would mean that ledger would grow to an enormous size, and ordinary users wouldn’t have the computing storage or bandwidth to use the network.
If unlimited transactions were allowed, Bitcoin would become the domain of a centralized few organizations with enough processing power to handle tens of thousands of new transactions per second.
Since Bitcoin was created to avoid centralized institutions, this isn’t an attractive option.
The 1 MB limit on block size that’s currently in place means that the transaction ledger doesn’t grow too large too quickly. New users can easily download the transaction history and join Bitcoin. However, this block limit also means that there are more demands for transactions than there is space in the block to fit them all.
As a result, Bitcoin miners are charging fees to have your transactions prioritized and included sooner. If you decide not to pay the fees, as of November 2017, your transaction takes on average a little over 2 hours to get confirmed.
These fees and confirmation times also seem contrary to Bitcoin’s mission of democratizing payments. With fiat transfers, you pay fees to a bank. For Bitcoin, paying fees to miners doesn’t seem much different, although the fees are variable and usually less than a bank transfer.
The founders and community of Bitcoin Cash believe that block size does need a limit, but the 1 MB limit is arbitrary. Instead, they proposed a system with a block size of 8MB, still reasonable for new users to download but large enough that the new system could accommodate many times the number of transactions per second as the original Bitcoin blockchain!
Hard Fork: Bitcoin Alternatives and a Divided Community
Before deciding to create a new currency, the folks behind Bitcoin Cash appealed to the original Bitcoin community for an increase in block size. Those in favor of the increase cited greater accessibility and room to grow for the burgeoning Bitcoin user base.
However, there were many opposed to the increase, including miners who would miss the fees for transactions, leading to a decrease in overall mining on the blockchain and lowered security as a result. Opponents also believed that such an increase in network capacity would still lead to storage, bandwidth, and computing requirements outside the reach of the ordinary user.
While the two camps did reach a small compromise in the form of BIP 91 and Segregated Witness , upgrades targeted at reducing the amount of information needed inside the block, the argument over increased block size dragged on for over two years .
Ultimately the two camps decided to part ways in the form of a hard fork on the Bitcoin network.
The original Bitcoin would continue to exist with its 1 MB block limit. In addition, a new Bitcoin alternative, aka Bitcoin Cash, would be created with an 8 MB block limit. A hard fork means that Bitcoin Cash kept the same transaction history as Bitcoin up until the moment of the fork. If you owned Bitcoin before the hard fork, you continued to own that Bitcoin, but you now received an equivalent amount of Bitcoin Cash tokens on the new fork.
While technically almost identical, the two networks are not interchangeable.
The new Bitcoin Cash implemented replay protection and other measures to create a hard wall between the Bitcoin Cash fork and Bitcoin, meaning transactions could only be conducted within the fork and not across networks. The two currencies share a common history up until August 1, 2017, but thereafter they are completely separate.
As a result, Bitcoin Cash has a different exchange rate than Bitcoin, and not all wallets and exchanges supported Bitcoin Cash upon its launch. Still, by the end of the day on August 1, Bitcoin Cash was the third most valuable cryptocurrency in the world, in terms of market cap, and it continues to hold that position as of November 13, 2017 (although it briefly passed Ethereum as the 2nd largest cryptocurrency by market cap).
For the beginning of its life, Bitcoin Cash largely derived its value from the speculation that it will inherit the throne as king of crypto if and when Bitcoin’s scalability crisis causes the currency to no longer be feasible. The most die-hard advocates of Bitcoin Cash believe it will simply become, “Bitcoin,” and the original Bitcoin will fade as Bitcoin Legacy.
Bitcoin Cash’s detractors, on the other hand, see the project as an unnecessary split to the community, dividing an already small core group of people who love and understand blockchain technology into factions.
The Miners: Whose Opinion Really Matters
At the end of the day, discussions on forums and social media about the future of Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash are less important to the project’s success than the decisions miners make about the new currency.
Since Bitcoin Cash is almost identical to Bitcoin, aside from block size, the two forks would now be competing for mining power.
Miners had a choice: take a chance on a new, possibly lucrative venture with greater risk or stick with the tried and tested model on the original Bitcoin mining network.
In the beginning, Bitcoin Cash had trouble because its difficulty level was still calibrated to the mining power of the original Bitcoin network. With the sudden decrease in computing power for mining, it took up to 10 hours for Bitcoin Cash blocks to be mined early on.
However, Bitcoin’s (and, hence, Bitcoin Cash’s) software is written to adjust the difficulty of mining every 2,016 blocks. If more miners have joined the network, the difficulty will increase so the block time remains roughly the same (
10 minutes for Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash). If there are fewer miners on the network, the difficulty will decrease.
The problem was that Bitcoin Cash didn’t have time to wait for 2,016 blocks to go by before the difficulty adjustment. Instead, they implemented an Emergency Difficulty Adjustment (EDA) that automatically changed the difficulty if the mining hashrate (hashrate is the computing power of all the mining computers on the network) is a tiny percentage of what was expected.
Over the first few weeks of Bitcoin Cash, the block difficulty dropped quickly thanks to EDA. As a result, mining Bitcoin Cash became more lucrative, and miners began to migrate from mining Bitcoin to Bitcoin Cash. Some of these miners were idealists, dedicated to the idea of Bitcoin Cash’s scalability solution. Yet, others were interested in acquiring Bitcoin Cash as an investment vehicle, with prices expected to rise. Finally, for some mining Bitcoin Cash was a business opportunity, and they’d switch between mining Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash depending on which was most profitable at the time.
SegWit2x and the Current State of Bitcoin Cash
After its initial launch and pump of its value, Bitcoin Cash’s value stabilized around $400/BCH.
However, in recent weeks Bitcoin Cash has been on the rise, and news from November 9 about setbacks in Bitcoin’s scalability planning has only fueled the demand for Bitcoin Cash.
Bitcoin Cash is one answer to Bitcoin’s scalability problem, but the Bitcoin community was hard at work thinking of other ways to improve scalability. The first came with the implementation of Segregated Witness (SegWit), a new block structure that disassociated verification signatures from the transaction information contained in the block, reducing the space needed per transaction and increasing the transactions per block. SegWit was implemented as an optional, user driven update. This means that miners can choose whether to mine traditional or SegWit blocks. Once adoption reaches 95%, SegWit will be considered fully adopted. Currently, SegWit adoption is around 12%.
After SegWit went live, the next step in enhancing Bitcoin’s scalability was increasing the block size, not to 8 MB like Bitcoin Cash, but to 2 MB, effectively doubling the block size. This doubling was known as SegWit2x, and it was widely regarded as the way forward for Bitcoin, with users preparing for a hard fork to introduce the technology in November. However, a group of businesses and mining farms withdrew support for SegWit2x, essentially shuttering hopes for adoption of the scalability solution.
In the face of Bitcoin’s inability to establish a consensus on scalability, investors turned to Bitcoin Cash , with its price rising to over $1250/BCH in recent trading. If Bitcoin continues to struggle with its scalability issues, Bitcoin Cash is poised to take up the mantle. Investors in Bitcoin Cash believe that scenario is likely, while detractors believe Bitcoin’s dominance of the market will continue. Ultimately investing in and using Bitcoin Cash is about whether you believe Bitcoin’s scalability problems are serious and if you think Bitcoin can solve those problems.
Bitcoin will likely split into 2 — and it's all because of bitcoin cash
movieclips via YouTube Bitcoin will likely split into two separate currencies on Tuesday, and it's all thanks to bitcoin cash.
For years, bitcoin power brokers have been squabbling over the structure of the blockchain network that underpins the red-hot currency.
On one side of this war, there are the so-called core developers who want to keep the blocks that make up the network limited in their size to protect against hacks. On the other side, are the miners who want to increase the size of blocks to make the network faster.
In order to find some middle ground, some business executives and miners came up with a proposal known as SegWit2x, which would increase the size of bitcoin blocks to 2 megabytes. And up until last week, it looked like nearly everyone was on board with that plan.
That was until bitcoin cash, an alternative to both the original bitcoin and the SegWit2x version, entered from stage left.
"Bitcoin cash basically came out of nowhere," Charlie Morris, the chief investment officer of NextBlock Global, an investment firm with digital assets, told Business Insider."A group of miners who didn't like SegWit2x are going to opt for this new software that will increase the size of blocks from the current 1 megabyte to 8."
As a result, a split in bitcoin on August 1 at 8:20 AM EST, the deadline for Segwit2x implementation, appears to be very likely.
According to Morris, as soon as the split takes place most people will see their bitcoin holdings double. But that doesn't mean the value of investors' holdings will double.
Morris told Business Insider that bitcoin cash (BCC) has been trading in the futures market for about $200 to $400. Thus, if a split were to occur BCC would trade somewhere in that range while the value of bitcoin would witness a decline equal to the value of the new bitcoin.
The fork, according to Morris, may resemble the Ethereum split. Bitcoin's rival, Ethereum, experienced its own fork in 2016, eventually leading to the creation of the version of the cryptocurrency we know today.
"It will be similar to what happened with Ethereum when Ethereum classic came on the scene," Morris said."The two currencies marketcap equaled out to the market of the original Ethereum."
On the whole, most bitcoin enthusiasts aren't too concerned about a fork.
"In general, I think the fork is a healthy process because it's similar to how evolution works in nature," Yoni Ben Shimon, cofounder and CEO at Matchpool, told Business Insider in an email. "And that is the main reason bitcoin will never die - it's because it can adapt itself to changes."
Arthur Hayes, CEO of BitMex, a bitcoin derivative exchange, told Business Insider he thinks a fork will benefit the cryptocurrency in the long run, despite short term volatility.
"There are people with billions of dollars of skin in the game and they will ultimately go with the superior bitcoin network, and then the market will follow," Hayes concluded.
In the end, he thinks the winning bitcoin could reach $5,000 a coin.
Bitcoin is up close to 200% in 2017, trading at $2,808.
Since the Fork: The Price of Bitcoin vs. Bitcoin Cash
Since the Bitcoin Cash hard fork, both Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash have been performing relatively well and both chains have managed to survive and even thrive. However, Bitcoin has taken the spotlight recently with its incredible bull run since the fork even with the most recent price corrections. Let’s take a look at what the metrics look like and what they may mean for both assets.
Bitcoin vs. Bitcoin Cash
What is really cool about the Bitcoin Cash fork is that we essentially have an A/B test live on the market to give us data on which of two scaling solution — SegWit or a blocksize increase — is more practical. So far, it seems like Bitcoin is outperforming the altcoin that shares the majority of its blockchain. The chart below shows the respective prices of Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash since the fork. The data was gathered from coinmarketcap.
Since the hard fork, we see a much more pronounced upward trend for Bitcoin over Bitcoin Cash. Between the fork on August 1st and the time of writing, Bitcoin has gone up in value by 38.8%. Bitcoin Cash, on the other hand, has gone down in value by about 9.4%. This is one of the reasons that it is still more profitable for miners to mine Bitcoin over Bitcoin Cash.
One of the things that Bitcoin seems it will continue to enjoy over Bitcoin Cash is its hashrate. Because of the higher profitability in mining Bitcoin over Bitcoin Cash, it just makes more sense for miners to continue to point all of their hashing power at the Bitcoin network instead of at Bitcoin Cash. Making the switch would require a dedicated individual who supports Bitcoin Cash from an ideological standpoint over a financial one. While the idea of supporting a cause — even to the detriment of one’s wallet — is noble, it is also understandable that other miners might hesitate to redirect their hashing power. Ideals are great, but profit is king.
However, the fact that Bitcoin Cash has gone down in value since the fork does not suggest that the end is near for the altcoin. The fact that it has been gaining more miner support — combined with more exchanges adding BCH as a tradeable currency — means that the coin is doing fairly well for itself, all things considered. Its lower price also may be an incentive for new investment compared to Bitcoin.
Since Bitcoin is currently worth significantly more as well, its volatile swings and larger price corrections may leave investors a bit more sour than if the same happened with Bitcoin Cash. Whether you own Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, or both, their current prices still can make you smile — Bitcoin’s because it is smashing through all time highs all the time, and Bitcoin Cash’s because it is surviving when many thought it would have died by now.
This is not investment or trading advice; always conduct your own independent research.
UPDATE: Since the time that this article was written, the price of BCH has increased to approximately US$576, putting its growth since the fork at about 34%. Bitcoin has declined somewhat to about US$4,277, knocking its growth since the fork down to 36.4%.

You need to go double check the price of BCH. It was up 60% yesterday. Look at the bigger picture, BCH is sponsored by the Chinese and they will put a lot of resources behind it. It could equal or exceed XBT some day.
LOL What a difference a day or two makes, huh?
Note: BCH is _not_ an altcoin; it represents the original whitepaper description of bitcoin: scaleable _and_ decentralized. IMHO, Seqwit gives too much power to a majority (possibly influenced by Chinese govt.) of the mining cartels.
