On November 13, 2017, BCH (Bitcoin Cash) underwent a hard fork. This hard fork resulted in the original chain producing a block 36 hours later, thus creating two forked coin assets: BCH (new chain) and BCC (original chain).
Bitcoin Cash brings a sound currency to the world, fulfilling Bitcoins original vision of a "peer-to-peer electronic cash" system. It offers merchants and users an inexpensive and reliable way to conduct transactions. Its unlimited growth potential, global applicability, permissionless innovation in payment methods, and decentralized development all contribute to its promising future. BCC is the original chain version of BCH and is the closest cryptocurrency to Bitcoin so far.
