Why Bitcoin Cash instead of Bitcoin?
The announcement comes at a time when the trend towards mainstream adoption of cryptocurrencies is increasing, as demonstrated by the Central African Republic’s adoption of Bitcoin (BTC) as legal tender in April. However, the statement sparked controversy over the country’s choice to adopt Bitcoin Cash instead of Bitcoin. That’s why supporters of the resolution point to the WhyBitcoinCash website for information.
Bitcoin Cash is a peer-to-peer electronic cash system that aims to be solid global money with fast payments, micro fees, privacy and high transaction capacity (large blocks). Bitcoin Cash payments are sent directly from one person to another, just as physical money is given directly to the payee, like a dollar bill.
Bitcoin Cash is a permissionless, decentralized cryptocurrency. Therefore, it does not need trusted third parties and a central bank. Unlike traditional fiat money, BCH is not dependent on monetary intermediaries such as banks and payment processors. Transactions cannot be censored by governments or other centralized companies. Similarly, financial third parties have no control over the BCH network. Therefore, funds cannot be confiscated or frozen.
