What makes Bitcoin Cash unique?
Bitcoin Cash is the entry-level cryptocurrency as it is bringing the world into the crypto ecosystem. BCH is decentralized as we have multiple development and marketing teams and it is not a corporate coin. Bitcoin Cash has, and will always have, extremely low fees, less than a penny. Bitcoin Cash serves the $90 trillion global cash use case, unlike any other major cryptocurrency. The BCH community is second to none, a group of people who are working hard to fulfill Satoshi’s original vision.
Is Bitcoin Cash BCH different from Bitcoin Core BTC?

Bitcoin Cash is building the original vision of Bitcoin as described in Satoshi Nakamoto’s whitepaper with big blocks to serve the whole world, whereas Bitcoin Core BTC deprecates Bitcoin as a medium of exchange and artificially limits transactions, leading to expensive transaction fees and delays.
Why does Bitcoin Cash exist?
Bitcoin Cash enables an alternative monetary system with a predictable emission schedule and without a central authority so that nation-states can not continue to inflate away the value of your savings and assets for their own private benefit. Bitcoin Cash unites a world of trade unlimited by borders. It ends financial exclusion in the developing world and elsewhere.
Is my Bitcoin Cash wallet tied to my identity?
Your Bitcoin Cash wallet is controlled by your private key or recovery phrase, as the case may be. It is not tied to your name, identity, government identification card, passport, etc. You custody your funds, not banks. If you lose your private key or recovery phrase, no one can recover your BCH for you. So be sure to securely custody your Bitcoin Cash. Securely back up your private key or recovery phrase.
