What is cryptocurrency Bitcoin Cash

Cryptocurrency Bitcoin Cash is a decentralized digital currency that came into being, because of the first hardfork of Bitcoin on August 1, 2017. The distribution of the Bitcoin community occurred due to problems with the scale of the Bitcoin network, consequently slowed transactions in the network.

What problems does cryptocurrency Bitcoin Cash solve

As we have already written above, one of the main problems of Bitcoin was the delay in transactions, sometimes waiting for the sent coins had to wait until 1-2 days, which does not satisfy the users. These problems occur because of the small size of the Bitcoin block, which holds only 2 MB. The Bitcoin Cash block contains 8 MB of information, which makes it more prepared and adapted to the current popularity of cryptocurrency.

An important difference from Bitcoin is that the Bitcoin Cash network is more intelligent than the Bitcoin network, such a characteristic allows it to determine the hashreit thrown at its prey, and in accordance with this change the complexity of mining. If hashreit grows, the complexity of production grows. If hashreit falls, the complexity of mining cryptocurrency also falls.

Hashreit is a unit for measuring the computational power of equipment thrown at the extraction cryptocurrency.

The last but not unimportant problem that Bitcoin Cash solves is the amount of transaction fees. Thanks to the above improvements, the Bitcoin Cash network has become cheaper for users due to low commissions.
