About

Bitcoin Cash is a decentralized peer-to-peer electronic cash system for fast, reliable, and affordable global payments without intermediaries like banks and payment processors. It launched in August 2017 as a hard fork of Bitcoin to improve Bitcoin's scaling limitations, enabling bigger blocks, higher throughput, and ultra-low transaction fees for daily use. Key Features: • Allows users to make quick transactions that are processed and confirmed within minutes. • An open and permissionless network that encourages users to control their funds without interference. • Uses proof-of-work mining to keep transactions safe and censorship-resistant. • Accepted by merchants with instant payments and no chargebacks.
