About Bitcoin Cash (BCH)

What Is Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and How Does It Work?

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is a peer-to-peer digital currency created on August 1, 2017, when it split (hard-forked) from Bitcoin (BTC) to address on-chain scalability. Unlike Bitcoin’s 1 MB block size cap, Bitcoin Cash initially launched with 8 MB blocks, later increasing up to 32 MB, to allow more transactions per block and lower fees, positioning itself as “digital cash” for everyday payments rather than primarily a store of value.

Bitcoin Cash uses the same SHA-256 proof-of-work consensus as Bitcoin, targeting a new block roughly every ten minutes and halving its block reward every 210,000 blocks (~every four years). Its larger block capacity enables higher throughput, up to several hundred transactions per second, while maintaining decentralization by allowing ordinary miners and nodes to participate without prohibitive hardware requirements.

Transactions are broadcast across a global network of full nodes running compatible BCH implementations (e.g., BCHN, Bitcoin Unlimited), validated against consensus rules, and recorded immutably on the blockchain, making BCH a fast, low-cost option for payments and remittances.

What Is the Difference Between Bitcoin (BTC) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH)?

Bitcoin (BTC) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) share a common origin but diverge in how they prioritize transaction capacity and network upgrades. Bitcoin Cash was born in August 2017 as a hard fork of Bitcoin, driven by a community that wanted larger on-chain blocks to handle more transactions directly. While Bitcoin capped its block size at 1 MB (later introducing SegWit to effectively increase capacity), BCH started with an 8 MB cap and has since expanded to allow up to 32 MB blocks, enabling significantly higher throughput and lower average fees, at the cost of larger storage and bandwidth requirements for full nodes.

Beyond block size, the two chains follow different upgrade and scaling philosophies. Bitcoin’s roadmap emphasizes off-chain and second-layer solutions, like the Lightning Network and further soft-fork enhancements, to scale payments without altering its block size, preserving decentralization and node operability. Bitcoin Cash, in contrast, focuses on simple, on-chain scaling: increasing block limits and maintaining compatibility with basic UTXO-based transactions. This leads BCH to position itself more directly as everyday “digital cash,” whereas BTC is often treated primarily as a scarce store of value with a growing ecosystem of layer-2 applications.

When Was Bitcoin Cash Launched?

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) was created on August 1, 2017, at block height 478,559 when a group of developers and miners, led by Amaury Séchet (the chief architect of the Bitcoin ABC implementation) and supported publicly by long-time Bitcoin advocate Roger Ver, executed a hard fork of Bitcoin (BTC) to increase on-chain capacity. This split arose from debates over how best to scale Bitcoin: BCH proponents rejected SegWit’s off-chain scaling approach and instead raised the block size limit from 1 MB to 8 MB (later up to 32 MB), enabling more transactions per block and lower fees while preserving the original UTXO model.

While no single “founder” controls BCH, key figures include Amaury Séchet, often cited as its creator for authoring the first BCH-compatible client, and Roger Ver, who championed the fork as “peer-to-peer electronic cash.” Since launch, Bitcoin Cash’s protocol upgrades follow a twice-yearly timetable (typically May 15 and November 15), governed by a broad coalition of node implementers (e.g., BCHN, Bitcoin Unlimited). These scheduled upgrades have delivered enhancements, such as the Emergency Difficulty Adjustment fix (November 2017), CashAddr address format, re-enabled OP_RETURN limits, future support for Schnorr signatures and other op-code improvements, all aimed at steadily boosting on-chain throughput, security, and usability.

What Are the Main Use Cases of BCH Coin?

Bitcoin Cash was designed for cheap, fast peer-to-peer payments, everyday purchases, microtransactions (like tipping content creators), remittances and e-commerce, thanks to its larger block size and low fees.

You can also trade BCH on BingX’s spot market, choose from BCH/USDT and other pairs with deep liquidity and execute instant buy or sell orders through our intuitive interface.

How to Mine BCH Coins on Bitcoin Cash Network

Here’s a step-by-step guide to mining Bitcoin Cash (BCH) on the BCH network:

1. Set Up a BCH Wallet: Before you begin, create a secure Bitcoin Cash wallet to receive mining rewards. You can choose a non-custodial wallet like Electron Cash or a hardware wallet (e.g., Ledger, Trezor). Make sure you back up your seed phrase and keep it offline.

2. Choose Your Mining Hardware: BCH uses SHA-256 proof-of-work, so you’ll need an ASIC miner for competitive hashing power. Popular models include the Bitmain Antminer S19 Pro, MicroBT Whatsminer M56S, and Halong Mining DragonMint 16T. Compare their hashrates and energy efficiency (joules per TH) to optimize your ROI.

3. Install Mining Software: Download and install ASIC-compatible software from official websites to avoid malware. Use the software to link your miner with the BCH network or your chosen pool. Widely used clients are:

i. CGMiner (robust CLI tool for ASICs)

ii. BFGMiner (flexible, supports multi-GPU/ASIC setups)

iii. EasyMiner (GUI-based, beginner-friendly)

4. Join a Mining Pool: Solo mining is rarely profitable unless you run a large farm. Instead, join a BCH pool, such as ViaBTC, Antpool, or F2Pool, to combine hash power and receive steady payouts. Sign up, then configure your miner’s stratum settings (pool URL, worker name, and password) in your mining software.

5. Configure Your Miner & Start Mining: Connect your ASIC to power and network. In your mining software’s config file or UI, enter:

i. Pool URL (e.g., stratum+tcp://pool.viaBTC.com:3333)

ii. Worker credentials (from your pool dashboard)

iii. Your BCH wallet address for payouts

Save and launch the software. Your ASIC will begin hashing and submitting shares to the pool.

5. Monitor Performance & Optimize: Keep an eye on your miner’s hash rate, pool share submissions, and temperature via the software dashboard or your pool’s web portal. Adjust fan speeds, undervolt if supported, and watch electricity costs to ensure you remain profitable. Periodically check the BCH network difficulty and your break-even threshold as both BCH price and network hashrate fluctuate.

Once your pool confirms a block, rewards are distributed according to the pool’s payout scheme (PPS, PPLNS, etc.), and you’ll see BCH credited to your wallet address automatically.

What Is Bitcoin Cash Tokenomics?

BCH has a hard cap of 21,000,000 coins. No new coins will ever be created beyond this limit. As of April 2025, approximately 19.87 million BCH are in circulation, around 94.6% of the total supply.

New BCH are minted via SHA-256 proof-of-work mining. At launch (August 2017), the block reward was 12.5 BCH; it halved to 6.25 BCH in May 2020 and halved again to 3.125 BCH in April 2024. Halving events occur every 210 000 blocks (≈every four years), steadily reducing the inflation rate. All BCH entered circulation through mining and the 2017 fork distribution. There was no pre-mine, team allocation, or ICO.

Rewards go directly to miners; when you mine or pool-mine BCH, you earn newly issued coins according to the chosen pool’s payout scheme (PPS, PPLNS, etc.).

Which Wallets Support Bitcoin Cash?

You can self-custody Bitcoin Cash with a variety of hardware and software wallets that give you full control of your private keys. Leading hardware options like the Ledger Nano X and Trezor Model T store your keys offline in a secure element, protecting against hacks and phishing. On desktop and mobile, Electron Cash (a fork of the original Bitcoin-Qt client), Exodus (which integrates with Trezor), and Trust Wallet all support BCH with user-friendly interfaces, seed-phrase backups, and features like in-app exchange and portfolio tracking.

If you prefer a custodial solution, you can securely hold BCH in your BingX Spot Wallet. Simply deposit BCH to your Binance X account and trade on BCH/USDT or BCH/BTC pairs with tight spreads and deep liquidity. BingX also offers built-in security measures, cold storage for the vast majority of assets, two-factor authentication (2FA), and withdrawal whitelists, so you can manage and trade BCH directly from your exchange balance without having to handle private keys yourself.

How Fast Are Bitcoin Cash Transactions?

Bitcoin Cash blocks are found roughly every 10 minutes on average, so once your transaction is broadcast it’s typically included in the next block within that timeframe. Thanks to its 32 MB block size, the network can process an average of 116 transactions per second (and theoretically up to 200 TPS) versus Bitcoin’s ~7 TPS, keeping fees low and throughput high. Many merchants also accept zero-confirmation (0-conf) transactions instantly before on-chain confirmation, but for full settlement you’ll usually wait about 10 minutes per confirmation (often 1–6 confirmations, i.e. 10–60 minutes total) depending on your security needs.

What Makes Bitcoin Cash (BCH) a Good Investment?

Bitcoin Cash’s 32 MB block cap drives ultra-low fees—averaging just $0.02 per transaction, and high throughput (over 100 TPS), making it ideal for real-world payments and remittances. Today, more than 3,450 merchants worldwide accept BCH, underscoring growing adoption and network utility for everyday commerce.

As a Bitcoin hard fork, BCH inherits SHA-256 proof-of-work security and a fixed 21 million supply with predictable halvings, ensuring steadily declining inflation and long-term scarcity. Regular protocol upgrades enhance on-chain capacity and developer support, while listings on all major exchanges, including deep-liquidity BCH/USDT markets on BingX, provide robust access, tradability, and market depth for investors.
