About
Bitcoin Cash (BCH)
Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is a decentralized cryptocurrency that emerged as a fork from Bitcoin in 2017 to address Bitcoin’s scalability issues, aiming to support faster transactions and lower fees. Designed to be more efficient for day-to-day transactions, BCH increased block size limits from Bitcoin's 1MB to 8MB initially, later expanding further to 32MB, allowing the network to handle a higher volume of transactions at a lower cost. Its ecosystem includes wallet support, merchant adoption, and cross-border payments, making BCH a practical alternative for peer-to-peer digital transactions. Bitcoin Cash has also fostered a community focused on preserving the original vision of Bitcoin as "peer-to-peer electronic cash," prioritizing usability in payments over the store-of-value narrative that Bitcoin has adopted. Its robust development team continues to innovate with features such as Schnorr signatures and new smart contract capabilities, making BCH a unique asset in the cryptocurrency landscape.

Frequently asked questions
-
What is the most common way to buy Bitcoin Cash (BCH) with Indian Rupees (INR)?
The most common method is through a regulated Indian cryptocurrency exchange that acts as a fiat on-ramp. Users typically complete KYC/AML compliance, then deposit INR using popular payment methods like UPI (Unified Payments Interface) or IMPS bank transfers. Once the INR is in their account, they can place an order for BCH on the platform's order book, converting their fiat into the digital asset. -
What are the core technical advantages of Bitcoin Cash (BCH) for peer-to-peer transactions?
Bitcoin Cash was created as a Bitcoin fork with a focus on being 'peer-to-peer electronic cash'. Its primary advantages are low transaction fees and fast confirmation times, achieved through a commitment to on-chain scaling with larger block sizes. This design makes BCH highly suitable for everyday payments and microtransactions, where minimizing costs and delays on the blockchain transaction is critical. -
Are there specific token standards, like ERC-20, on the Bitcoin Cash network?
Yes, the Bitcoin Cash network supports token creation through the Simple Ledger Protocol (SLP). SLP tokens are analogous to Ethereum's ERC-20 tokens, allowing developers to issue and manage new digital assets directly on the BCH blockchain. A key benefit is that transactions with SLP tokens inherit the low-fee, high-speed characteristics of the native BCH network, making them an efficient alternative for token projects. -
How can I securely store my BCH after an INR to BCH conversion?
For maximum security, you should transfer your BCH from the exchange's custodial wallet to a non-custodial digital wallet where you control the private keys. Options include mobile, desktop, or hardware wallets. A hardware wallet offers the highest level of security by keeping your private keys offline. Always back up your seed phrase and store it in a safe, private location, as it's the only way to recover your digital asset if you lose access to your device. -
What kind of fees are involved when trading INR for BCH?
There are typically three types of fees. First, a deposit fee for adding INR to the exchange via UPI or bank transfer, though many Indian exchanges offer this for free. Second, a trading fee, which is a small percentage of the transaction value taken by the exchange. Third, when you withdraw your BCH to a private digital wallet, you will pay a small BCH network fee to the miners who process the blockchain transaction. This network fee is usually very low due to BCH's on-chain scaling.
