BCH

Numerous_Wonders81

"Bitcoin clone". Unlike Bitcoin forks (LTC, BCH, BSV), which share the same slow, energy-intensive architecture. Bitcoin rarely moves because transaction fees and 10-minute block times make it impractical for daily use. Bitcoin’s script is intentionally limited. It can't natively handle complex "If/Then" logic (smart contracts) without clunky, centralized Layer 2s. It’s a "dumb" vault of gold. While Bitcoin is stuck with a 15-year-old legacy script, Algorand lets developers build complex apps in Python and TypeScript. This is why it’s the go-to for Real World Assets (RWA). ​Like Bitcoin, Algorand has a fixed supply of 10 billion tokens. There will never be a 10,000,000,001 ALGO. To even start mining Bitcoin effectively in 2026, you need professional ASIC hardware that costs between $2,000 and $20,000. You also need industrial-grade cooling and dirt-cheap electricity. On Algorand, you can secure the network with a Raspberry Pi or an old laptop. Algorand can bundle multiple transactions—like swapping a house deed for USDC—and ensure they either all happen or none happen. This is native, "Layer 1" programmability that Bitcoin clones can't dream of. Algorand was built from scratch with a completely different foundation. 'network effect' doesn't save outdated tech once the world needs high-speed, scalable infrastructure. ​I can use my 'scarce asset' to power smart contracts, settle global payments in 3.5 seconds, and secure a network with a Nakamoto Coefficient 6x higher than Bitcoin’s. ​While Bitcoin users are paying $10 in fees to wait an hour for a 'maybe' confirmation, Algorand is settling 10,000+ transactions per second for $0.0002 with 100% finality. Bitcoin is a digital vault where you pay high fees to let your 'gold' sit. Algorand is a programmable engine that settles 1 million+ real-world tickets (TravelX) for $0.0002.

that was a nice try to liquidate my BCH long

AD1AD

For a long time, it was assumed a Bitcoin-like chain could never support loops in the scripting language because it could lead to denial of service attacks. But with some clever adjustments to the consensus limits, it turns out to be fine. That's why loops (and functions) are coming to BCH in 2026, making complex smart contracts 100x easier to write, and 100x safer. The VM Limits CHIP: https://github.com/bitjson/bch-vm-limits The Loops CHIP: https://github.com/bitjson/bch-loops

> Is that already actively being worked on or just a theoretical capability after the next network upgrade? Nobody I know of is building it yet, at least not publicly. > And we also have to consider the size of the anonymity set, since that approach allows having an unlimited number of different pools. That's similar to the issue Zcash and Litecoin have, but multiplied by n. Yes, but that's good. Every different privacy method available on an optional privacy chain is an opportunity for somebody who would have needed to go to a whole different blockchain for a different privacy technique to stay on BCH instead. Shoehorning all of your chain's users to one privacy technique is, IMO, a shortsighted decision. You build network effect quickly, but hurt scalability and add technical debt by baking that privacy method into consensus. Users of mandatory privacy chains are not really any different from the subset of users on an optional privacy chain who chose to use a specific privacy tool.

AD1AD

Yes, within a privacy covenant. Basically, you'll send your money to the privacy covenant and then, while it's there, you can think of it as a whole separate chain with different rules. The BCH VM still verifies that chain's rules, but as long as the tech implemented hides amounts, then amounts will be hidden. And of course, you can at any time "withdraw" from that covenant to a fresh P2PKH address, or to a different privacy covenant.

Glittering_Pick_9738

BCH has had a good year as well. I like how it grows (I guess - in it for a tech). PA is just a nice addition.

AD1AD

Congrats to Monero from a BitcoinCasher. XMR is one of the few cryptocurrency projects with a focus on utility. But watch out, because BCH will be able to support ring signatures and ZK privacy schemes after the May LAYLA upgrade.

GeorgeOrrange

the trailing one year and two year chart look like the perception is reversing with many coming to terms with the reality that BTC doesn't scale and LTC ain't it... just use BCH if you don't like XMR, but understand that the time for being precious with your unforked sats has likely past

I learn my lesson back in the day with BCH

piggleii

BCH has had a good run. Due for a correction.

SameWeekend13

LTC & BCH are some of the top coins down today. Can anyone say why ?

aaj094

None of it relevant since BCH has long lost any narrative and neither does the 15k or so transactions per day sync up with your claims that it has a great real user base. Even XMR and LTC beat bch squarely on this metric.

jwz9904

i have not seen anyone asking about BCH, it's all XMR here.

AD1AD

It's funny to see the TA folks asking "Why is the BCH chart so strong????", without having even googled what upgrades its done or what products have recently launched. 3 biggest deals, IMO: Quantumroot post-quantum vaults live on ChipNET https://x.com/bitjson/status/1991507572952842406 Moria MUSD overcollateralized algorithmic stablecoin launches https://www.moria.money/ Loops and functions coming to the CashVM in 2026 LAYLA upgrade https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adF_Y7y5eiI

Chill-BL

Monero and BCH on an uptrend is awesome for those who have continued the P2P cash system. Awesome day for crypto.

LinusVPelt

Two years in this world is nothing btw. There have been users here since 2016. Users which have seen The DAO with their eyes and the BCH fork on their wallets, and the multiple crashes on Solana, that go back to 2020 and 2021, as well as when Solana built the Ethereum compatibility, which was the moment when it started to become relevant. Those happened all before you started to be around.

DangerHighVoltage111

It is a PoW chain so inherently sounder than any PoS chain, but it lost to BCH and XMR which aren't crippled by segwit an a blocksize limit or a stupid "Silver to Gold" narrative.

DangerHighVoltage111

And BCH has all of it. 🤷‍♂️

legendary_korra

BCH is also a good alternative to litecoin

SirArthurPT

I'm not against BCH, just in the context of privacy it isn't (yet) there. 

LovelyDayHere

BCH has improved on Bitcoin's scripting system so much that it will be able to do Monero-level privacy through smart contracts running directly on chain. As well as quantum resistant vaults. All without needing to alter the base protocol. Stay tuned.

SirArthurPT

BCH relies on mixing (coin fusion), I don't think that's quite a good idea for the purpose.

Odbdb

Who cares ?!?!? Satoshi got it right the first time. BCH has perfectly good privacy.

Realistic_Fee_00001

No thanks. BCH and XMR had plenty enough gains without the drawbacks.

Resident_Caramel763

BCH outperfomed BTC n thats all needed for BCH maximals.

MinuteStreet172

No, it's not about going mindlessly up. Is going up as a consequence of the fundamentals. BCH has the same hard limit for coins, 21 million, and Monero's inflation is negligible. BCH's price is to be considered from its bottom, due to the context within it was born, as such and being as limited as it was when its genesis block was mined (by Satoshi), its price will also continue to grow against the ever devaluing fiat. Both coins scale to levels where BTC will never be able to, and no, lighting is not a solution to the fact that BTC couldn't onboard the world population before half of said population dies of old age. So in the dawn of de facto CBDCs, and extreme regulation, projects that preserve their utility and the user's privacy will grant self sovereignty, unlike a fully traceable crippled coin that will gladly shit towards custodial methods as long as the institutions that have control over what you can do with your money, especially as a possible "sanctioned individual", keep pumping your peasant bags.

ThatChrisGuy7

IMO short BCH

what-why-

First purchase of any crypto was BCH at $5000. Set daily, weekly, monthly purchase, and HODL. You will be happy in the long run.

DangerHighVoltage111

The second swap says zero amount transferred. I'm not familir with trust wallet. Is there an option to rescan your addresses? Your aster should still be there. Wasn't there some problem with Trust Wallet lately? If you can, always use DeFi like thorchain or similar and a BCH native wallet like electron cash or one of the mobile wallet.

rgnet1

I just realized the person you’re responding to is called “that BCHguy”. When he says “they” are making it prohibitively expensive, he’s talking about bitcoin core devs. Pretty silly since the fee structure is the same as it’s always been. The scalability was a known and managed issue since its inception. BCH, despite forking from the original project in 2017, has a market cap of about 1% that of BTC but its followers remain delusional that someday the market will flip to wanting bitcoin with larger blocks and more transactions per sec at the cost of decentralization.

Tundra14

Saying theyre down on their investment is like saying Im down on mine. I bought in initially at 3k. Before the BCH split even. I bought some more last year for the first time in ~8 years. Am I down? Hell no. I was just happy to see it go below 100k again.

ThreeTonChonker

Because BCH is a shitcoin that is being pumped and dumped every now and then

i_have_chosen_a_name

then why did the price go up so much from the moment he was in prison? Pretty sure Roger Ver was the main BCH dumpter, now that he is in prison he can't dump BCH anymore.

i_have_chosen_a_name

Roger Ver being in prison is good for BCH.

ald_loop

no. get your fake BCH shilling outta here.

DangerHighVoltage111

🤣 That's actually funny. Here, take a look what will change for BCH in 2026: https://minisatoshi.cash/upgrade-history#upgrade-Layla Scroll up for the other upgrades that already happened. Also, stop listening to Maxi slander, they have no fing idea about BCH.

ThreeTonChonker

Is there something to be jealous of? Roger Ver is in prison for a long time, what do you expect to change for BCH?

coinfeeds-bot

tldr; Bitcoin Cash (BCH) demonstrated resilience by recovering from falling out of the Top 30 cryptocurrencies to re-enter the Top 10, showcasing its utility and momentum. Key developments include Paytaca's steady progress in BCH adoption, upgrades to the BCH Argentina map for easier merchant identification, and SpaceX's Starlink expansion, which supports BCH's global scalability. Additionally, BCH's community engagement grew, with the BitcoinCashOG X page surpassing 7,000 followers, reflecting increasing global support. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

It being new, there still needs to be a lot of regulation. Yes, technically anyone can start a coin. Dogecoin is a good example of people trying to make fun of bitcoin only to find out it works. I cant tell you what the best or safest is, because I dont know, and nobody does. BTC seems the safest, but when it was created, it was known it would need more work. The whole reason BCH exists is because there was a disagreement on how to upgrade bitcoin. One group chose one path, another took the other. People like me just held onto both because I suddenly had both. Ethereum and others are in some way different because they use a different rule set. If you want technical details, look up a white paper. Basically it's just a public account of how much you own. If the public splits, you have a record on both ledgers. There are plenty of scams out there, like Trump coin. When laws and regulations catch up, it'll be safer.

SaulMalone_Geologist

Dang dude, you did great work on deflecting that mockery by being pedantic. You seem like a pro, and I'm clearly outclassed by this BCH millionaire. You heard it here, folks!

RespectFront1321

No difference lol, lmao even. All the forks you mentioned aren’t even in the top 100 meanwhile BCH sits comfortably at at #11.

RespectFront1321

No difference lol, lmao even. All the forks you mentioned aren’t even in the top 100 meanwhile BCH sits comfortably at at #11.

Bagmasterflash

Sure but he started ETH because Core wouldn’t let him explore the tech. BCH kicked Core and explored all the tech and found a better solution. ETH is just inferior tech at this point.

DangerHighVoltage111

BCH, XMR and maybe LTC

i_have_chosen_a_name

I you bought BCH 3 years ago you are up 650% today.

intelw1zard

I'm okay with BCH. Its an okay project with bigger block folks. BSV Is the one thats a fraud, ran by a scammer, and illegal.

legendary_korra

BCH also turned 17 today!

Plot twist, he accidentally bought BCH instead. He's down 76%.

2_The_Moon_And_Back

Buying the bottom of BCH yesterday was the second best trade i did in the past months.

thebigweb

BCH...let's go!

MinuteStreet172

Just look at BCH

SpontaneousDream

Yea, and that was the highest ratio it ever would get to. It's been literally straight down since then. People who sold their BTC for BCH have literally watched their wealth evaporate slowly over time

PirateSKB

Tbf if you was around in 2017 you got free BCH from holding BTC during the split though

AD1AD

BitcoinCash popped into the top ten just long enough for everyone to grab screenshots. Then all of a sudden, everything but BCH pumps. I'm sure it has nothing to do with a BILLLLLION tether being minted (printed) shortly before. Hmmmmm

Shibinator

BCH down bad over 8 years. BCH up a little last 4 years. So actually, in the totality of time since BTC/BCH split, BCH has a slight edge in terms of positive price performance. An investor who DCA'd starting from a random day would have a >50% chance of being in profit.

LexxM3

MtGox: Most definitely did not restore “much of users’ funds”: a) about 18% +/- BTC/BCH has been recovered as potential repayment; b) the theoretical fiat gains are irrelevant and has nothing to do with the recovery process; it is fiat, after all; if you’re going to talk about recovery, use the actual asset lost, not some other random asset c) the repayment process is literally glacial (i.e. the ice caps are melting faster than the repayments are made), has not completed, and is fully expected to take another 12-15 years if ever; an exponentially increasing number of outstanding MtGox users/creditors are dying of old age

UnknownEssence

Are you delusional? BCH is worth ~$600 BTC is worth ~$88,000 It's not even close. The ship sailed in years ago. Accept the reality and give it up

inShambles3749

I know quite a few places in Berlin Zürich, FFM that take BTC if you want. And xmr obviously on black markets. But BCH? No where

inShambles3749

Don't know a single person or place that uses BCH.

DangerHighVoltage111

Nothing, all my BCH is in self custody.

Flamboiant_Canadian

BCH is actually functionally used as a currency. It's reflected in the price (why it's so low compared to BTC). Who do you know that actively uses BTC for purchases/bills/etc? That's the entire premise of the BCH community. Actually using it, like Monero. 

HSuke

OP is on drugs. Both BCH and ADA need to be 80% larger to be in the top 10.

Shibinator

Lmao, the industry standard is coinmarketcap.com and at the time of posting BCH was number 10.

ThreeTonChonker

Maybe BCH will finally catch up to Dogecoin so OP can dump his coins and bail Roger Ver out of prison

StatisticalMan

OP can't even get basic facts right. BCH is currently 14th https://www.coingecko.com/ and half the size of dogecoin

northcasewhite

Well done BCH! I hold none but I was there throughout the war and saw how the people were duped.

northcasewhite

At the time it was created, it had a purpose. I support BCH not because I think it is the best currency coin (as you said there are now better alternatives) but because of how slandered it is. People made up all kinds of stuff about it.

StatisticalMan

I sold all my BCH when the split happened and got about 0.2 extra BTC per BTC held. My guess is dunces like OP were on the opposite side of that trade. They traded their "worthless" BTC for FIVE TIMES as much BCH. Whomp whomp.

StatisticalMan

The purpose of BCH is for the bagholders dumb enough to pick it over Bitcoin can pawn their heavy bags off on new suckers. The crypto grifter cycle of life.

Shibinator

The purpose of BCH is described by Satoshi Nakamoto in [the Bitcoin whitepaper](https://bitcoincashpodcast.com/bitcoin.pdf)! Great time to read it!

jaimewarlock

Why play games that give you mere tokens when there are P2E games like Nythyria that use something backed by real POW cryptocurrencies? For instance, on their main server, 1 Glitter = 1 BCH bit, whether depositing or making withdrawals. They even have a weekly quest that pays out about $60 worth of crypto.

praxidike74

I don't understand a single word you wrote but it sounds bullish for BCH 🚀🚀🚀

PirateSKB

I mean, if literal vaporware can reach the top 100, I really don't see why BCH can't do well. Bitcoin itself will probably still be number 1 and it's terrible for what it is tech-wise. I think the main reason people hate BCH is because it was a fork of Bitcoin (which is silly because the current Bitcoin we know and love is a fork, same with Eth and the original Eth chain kept on as Eth Classic with the Dao Hack included), or because they don't hold it / some random schadenfreude reason I gave up on the Bitcoin community years ago when I realized they can't agree on anything. Just invest in what you want to invest in buddy, I don't hold any BCH (I sold mine a long time ago) but I hope it does well for ya

AD1AD

With a powerful enough virtual machine, you stop having to do hard fork upgrades for every new feature. That's reasonable ossification. BCH is getting loops and functions next year, making it not just computationally equivalent to ETH, but also more byte efficient. That means Zero Knowledge privacy techniques can be efficiently implemented just using BitcoinCash script, and so can post-quantum signature schemes. No ZK upgrade, or quantum upgrade. Just a powerful scripting environment.

coinfeeds-bot

tldr; Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is showing signs of strength, holding above $518 and trading near $535 after defending key support levels. Analysts predict potential price targets of $580, $625, and possibly $650 if BCH breaks above $607 resistance. Technical indicators like RSI and moving averages suggest room for upward movement, while MACD signals short-term pressure. A breakout above $607 could attract more buyers, with the potential for BCH to reach $650 by year-end, contingent on market stability and volume. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

justnickos

you don't need your receiver to be on Coinbase. you can send to his external address. in my case, i have a client who bought something from me and he used his Coinbase to send BCH to my BCH address on my Bitget account.

justnickos

if you are using Coinbase, BCH or Bitcoin Cash has low fee

vadwiser

The fork you're taking about was already made. It's called BCH.

MinuteStreet172

The all will probably experience a small pump along with BTC and others. Maybe you'll be able to cash out at a 50% loss... But Yeah, maybe sell and buy a decent coin that doesn't inflate to hell and is actually functioning as intended. ETH, XMR, BCH have had decent performance and are serious projects.

PirateSKB

I mean, there's projects that do what BTC does, but better tbf. The main thing BTC has going for it is first mover advantage and lots of adoption, but compared to many current projects, the tech is fairly outdated and the throughput is horribad without a L2 like LN Also the overall community can't agree on anything, which is how we ended up with BCH in the first place lol

ithastogoupfromhere

I'm already in again, lmao. BTC long at 87965, ETH long at 2960 and BCH at 612. They all slightly in the negative but I have enough margin. Next mini pump would be enough

coinfeeds-bot

tldr; Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is closing in on the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market cap, narrowing the gap with Cardano from $21 billion to under $1 billion over the past year. BCH swaps are now live on LeoDex, enabling seamless cross-chain swaps via NEAR Intents. The XO Wallet enhances user experience with intent-aware interactions and transparent templates, making BCH applications more intuitive.

No. This happened to the BCH fork for a bit. Some big miners left the network and dedicated their power to the BTC network and the smaller miners were basically stuck.

There is, BCH, Bitcoin Cash. It was a fork or something.

RespectFront1321

Lantjiao69

What happen to BCH? 🤣

flying-fox200

BTC+ETH should always be the backbone of a crypto porftolio, but I can also recommend the currencies below. Monero (XMR) --------------- Monero is anonymous, peer-to-peer digital cash. It has the highest level of privacy of any cryptocurrency, rendering all of its transactions totally untraceable. It also has an adjustable block size, allowing it to scale in high network activity. It has a tail emission of 0.6 XMR per block. Yes, this means it is slightly inflationary, but with the rate of inflation tending to zero over time. I would not view it as a "store of value" - it is meant to be used as anonymous P2P cash. However, investing in it could still be a good idea as it has a strong use case, and people will always value privacy. Quantum Resistant Ledger (QRL) ---------------------------------- Quantum computing is a real threat to the cryptography used by almost all cryptocurrencies (elliptic curve cryptography). How soon this threat will materialise - no one knows. What can be agreed on, however, is that the treat is real and one should prepare for it. That being said, almost none of the cryptocurrencies are currently quantum-resistant. QRL is fully quantum-resistant, and has been from its inception. It uses XMSS and will soon migrate to SPHINCS+ (if I'm not mistaken) when upgrading to project Zond (which will allow smart contracts). Over the past few months it has had a good bull run, likely reflecting the sentiment that the quantum computing threat is starting to become a greater worry. Bitcoin Cash (BCH) -------------------- BCH was created as a fork of BTC in an attempt to uphold the original vision of BTC as an electronic, decentralised, P2P digital payments system. It did this by increasing the block size, allowing for much higher throughput. It also improved its difficulty adjustment algorithm to a per-block difficulty calculated as a moving average, rather than the 2016 block average used by BTC. Whether you agree or not with it "upholding Satoshi's vision" does not matter - it might be good as an investment because it is identical to Bitcoin in all the ways that matter and could continue to gather interest as time goes on. Solana (SOL) -------------- Solana is an extremely high-throughput blockchain with cheap payments that supports smart contracts. It has become a hub for decentralised finance (DeFi) and also memecoin culture. Its use case is strong and we might see it have bull runs in the future. BitcoinII (BC2) --------------- This is a very new coin and I cannot in good faith recommend it as a "solid investment", but I mention it all the same as there is a chance it moons. It is, essentially, "Bitcoin, re-launched". It is pretty much identical to Bitcoin, but was relaunched in June 2025. It exists to give people a "taste" of what Bitcoin was like back in 2009-2010, **not** as a competitor to Bitcoin. It is not to be confused with BTC2.

Aldhyabi

LTC , Not scalable XRP , Centralized and scam BCH, BSV : Can be spammed by Data ( Images , Files.. etc ) PLU, ZUX : ERC tokens on Ethereum ( Not real Payments cryptocurrencies )

Aurorion

Forget Bitcoin. How is this "Nano" better than any one of hundreds of shitcoins with plenty of groupies, such as LTC, XRP, BCH, BSV, PLU, ZUX, etc.

RespectFront1321

Couple of coins have been doing great though like BCH, XMR and ZEC. Why is there this expectations that every frog/dog crap token is going to surely pump or that alt season is bound to happen?

inadyttap

fuck BCH

AD1AD

BCH has BTC's Scarcity (but better, it has a sustainable security model), ETH's programmability (but better, UTXO actually scales), and Zcash's Privacy (but better, it can host ANY privacy technique using smart contract logic) hmmmmm...

Important_Steak_5955

The grass is always greener... Silver has had a fun December and Q4 overall for sure! For me, I diversify. BTC, ETH, BCH, SOL, ETC :) I do have a few oz of silver and some boring ETFs. There will always be ups and downs. I can't imagine how close you'd have to pay attention to any one market to even get close to timing it. Look at BTC over the last 5 years. A couple really bad ones in there, but overall up 70% per year average. Very recently, for about 3 seconds, it was 125k. Some say that was orchestrated? I buy, hold and don't look back.

baIIern

Maybe it will, maybe not. I'm surprised that BCH is keeping up so well. The narrative is cash and I still can't pay with it anywhere around

RespectFront1321

For now. BCH is the only fork almost in the top 10 again while all other BTC forks are not even in the top 100. It’s also the only coin in the top 11 that’s up almost 43% this year. The “lol zoom out” logic will run out of steam one day.

Glittering_Pick_9738

This. I first purchased BCH in 2024. I couldn't care less about price from 2017. It is still is my second heaviest bag after BTC so I cheer for its success.

Leithm

I have no reason to doubt you can remember 8 years ago. What I strongly suspect is  that someone with a 4 year old  reddit account is reading a chart. Especially as  you mention 6x, when in fact on the 20^(th) of December 2017 BCH traded well over 10X it’s  current price.   Coinbase finally relented on saying they would not list BCH and there was a massive spike [on speculation of insider dealing.](https://techcrunch.com/2017/12/19/coinbase-inside-information-bitcoin-cash-launch/) I’m sure you remember it well though.  /s
