Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is a cryptocurrency that was created in August 2017 as a fork of the original Bitcoin blockchain. It was created to address some of the issues with the original Bitcoin, particularly its slow transaction times and high fees.
The creation of Bitcoin Cash was the result of a long-standing debate in the Bitcoin community over how to scale the network. Some members of the community believed that the block size limit of 1MB was too small and was hindering the network's ability to process transactions quickly and efficiently. As a result, a group of developers proposed a fork of the Bitcoin blockchain with an increased block size limit of 8MB.a
One of the main features of Bitcoin Cash is its larger block size limit, which allows for more transactions to be processed in each block. This leads to faster transaction times and lower fees compared to the original Bitcoin. Bitcoin Cash also uses a different mining algorithm than Bitcoin, called "SHA-256", which allows for more efficient mining.
As of March 2023, Bitcoin Cash is one of the top 25 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, with a market cap of around $10 billion. It is widely used for peer-to-peer transactions and is accepted by a growing number of merchants and businesses.
Bitcoin Cash uses a proof-of-work consensus algorithm, which requires miners to solve complex mathematical problems in order to validate transactions and create new blocks. Miners are rewarded with newly minted Bitcoin Cash for their efforts. However, as with all proof-of-work cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin Cash mining requires a significant amount of energy.
