BitcoinCash1 is one of several independent organizations, foundations, projects, and groups collaborating to maintain, promote, and build on the Bitcoin Cash blockchain. We emphasize decentralization, transparency, and community-driven development, encouraging anyone to participate, contribute, or establish their own organization to help grow the BCH ecosystem.
Note: The name "BitcoinCash1" is used because "bitcoincash" is currently restricted on GitHub. This does not imply exclusivity. There is no single official or central authority for Bitcoin Cash.
Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is a decentralized Peer-to-Peer (P2P) electronic cash system. Bitcoin Cash brings sound money to the world, fulfilling the original promise of the whitepaper: "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System".
Transactions are conducted on-chain with average transfer fees below $0.01, and settlements are near-instant since we embrace zero-confirmation ("zero-conf") when possible.
