What is Bitcoin Cash ?
Bitcoin Cash was released in 2017 as a hard fork of Bitcoin, which means it was split from the original protocol to solve the problems regarding scalability, low speed, and high fees that Bitcoin had. Bitcoin Cash is technically and structurally similar to Bitcoin, but it can pack 4 to 8 times larger data into each block. It can also process 116 transactions per second, which means blocks are bigger, and yet the speed is higher compared to Bitcoin. Furthermore, due to its fees, Bitcoin wasn’t suitable for everyday purchases anymore. Thus, Bitcoin Cash was created as an alternative to Bitcoin for everyday use.

What is BCH ?
BCH is the native coin on the Bitcoin Cash blockchain. It was released alongside its network in 2017. Since it has lower fees, BCH acts like cash in everyday purchases and is known as electronic cash. Many stores and online markets accept this coin in their transactions. Although Bitcoin is still more popular than Bitcoin Cash, more and more people use BCH every day, and it seems that this coin is finding its way to the market. BCH is mineable like BTC, and the process is the same as its origin. Nonetheless, it has a maximum supply of 21 million coins. There is still a small percentage of this coin out there, which is almost equal to 5% of its max supply.
Is Bitcoin Cash reliable
Since it is a fork of Bitcoin, it uses the same protocols. Therefore, the network is as reliable as Bitcoin. Bitcoin Cash uses a Proof-of-Work security mechanism, which protects this platform from attackers. However, you should keep your private information safe to prevent any problems regarding hacks or other cyber-attacks on your account. Use a safe exchange like Blocktrade and hold your coins in a secure wallet. If you want to buy BCH and keep it as a long-term investment, we recommend you choose a hardware wallet.
After you've bought BCH
BCH is a transactional coin, which means it can be used to purchase goods, as payment, exchange, or anything you use the money for. Therefore, BCH is somehow equal to your cash, but in your e-wallet. Furthermore, Bitcoin Cash supports smart contracts. Hence, people can use BCH to create smart contracts on this network.
Like other cryptocurrencies, BCH can be used as an investment. In the past, BCH has shown that it could be a profitable investment for its holders. However, nothing is guaranteed for the future. If you want to keep BCH as an investment, it is recommended to check different things, read its white paper, check the news about the cryptocurrency world, or follow top investors on social media to know their opinion. In the end, remember that anything might affect the future of crypto. Therefore, check new regulations and BCH price of the day to have a better perspective on the future of this coin.
