About Bitcoin Cash
Bitcoin Cash is a cryptocurrency that emerged from a split in the Bitcoin network, with an emphasis on peer-to-peer electronic payments. Its native asset, BCH, is used to transfer value and pay network transaction fees. BCHUSD quotes Bitcoin Cash against the US dollar, expressing the dollar value of each BCH.
Bitcoin Cash places particular emphasis on processing transactions directly on its blockchain. Its approach to block capacity distinguishes it from Bitcoin and reflects different priorities around payment use, transaction costs and network participation. Like Bitcoin, it uses proof-of-work mining, while operating as a separate network with its own development decisions and ecosystem.
On Xellion's MT5 platform, Bitcoin Cash is traded as a CFD under BCHUSD, allowing a position to be long or short without owning the underlying asset.
