General Protocols
Autonomous Scaling
All value is where all people can afford to spend.On-chain revenue decides the future of who claims the spot of Bitcoin. Revenue is usage, real usage comes from real people participating and transacting on-chain, which makes mining ops & expansion sustainable.The creation of more mining operations is dependent on current operations being self-sustaining. As on-chain spending volume is sustained, throughput (blocksize) scales to demand in response. The more people use Bitcoin Cash, the more decentralized, secure and economical it becomes for the entire world, all this thanks to an algorithm which ended the blocksize wars. It's theoretical transactions per second are without end.
"The existing Visa credit card network processes about 15 million Internet purchases per day worldwide. Bitcoin can already scale much larger than that with existing hardware for a fraction of the cost. It never really hits a scale ceiling. If you're interested, I can go over the ways it would cope with extreme size." — Satoshi
Private Escrow
On/Off-Ramps
To ensure privacy while acquiring cryptocurrency, utilizing a private escrow is the optimal approach. Multiple Bitcoin Cash applications offer this service, enabling users to maintain confidentiality. By employing these platforms, individuals can securely obtain crypto while safeguarding their personal information.
Hedging on Hope
Anti-War
Offloading debt to neighboring countries, citizens paying ritualistic taxes under threat of violence and volatility of war backs the remaining 1% of fiat value which now comprises it's speculative entirety. Neighboring countries and their citizens have the opportunity to transition to a better alternative system.The system made slaves without chains, soul bound to a $ mafia. These bankers feed on fear, destabilize our families and have sold the next generation's time & potential to the highest offer before they were born. We have a choice, it will require work. Choose freedom.
Finding Purpose In Work Again
Debased dollars hold no real value if society earns satoshis (sats) based on practical contributions. Humanity seeks purpose, which drives our desire to work alongside each other. Being useful is the true pursuit of purpose, whereas cash merely serves as a means to communicate that purpose.
Why Ꞩ is Replacing $
Lifespan (years) | Usefulness | Governance | Unit Cap | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Ꞩ (sats) | ∞ | ∞ | hard-fork consensus | 2.1Q |
USA | 100 | limited | centralized | ∞ |
Britain | 105 | limited | centralized | ∞ |
France | 95 | limited | centralized | ∞ |
Netherlands | 78 | limited | centralized | ∞ |
Spain | 111 | limited | centralized | ∞ |
Portugal | 80 | limited | centralized | ∞ |
Money is merely a tool for measurement, and dollars fail to accurately reflect value. In contrast, satoshis (sats) measure value with complete precision, despite any resulting volatility. Ultimately, as sats become a form of hard money, humanity can leverage its hard work and abundance to achieve extraordinary heights, reaching beyond the stars.
Infinitely Useful
1 sat = 0.00000001 BCH
1 BCH = 100,000,000 sats
---
1 millisat = 0.001 sats (sub-satoshis)
1 sat = 1 Ꞩ1000 sats = 1 Kilosat
1000 Kilosats = 1 Megasat = 1,000,000 sats100 Megasats = 1 BCH = 100,000,000 sats1000 Megasats = 1 Gigasat = 10 BCH
1000 Gigasats = 1 Terasat = 10,000 BCH
1000 Terasats = 1 Petasat = 10,000,000 BCH2.1 Petasats = 21,000 Terasats = 21 million BCH = 2.1 million Megasats
Inflation Matching
70-80% of spending is digital. If we want to make an impact on the prices of tangible goods for each other, we need to first encourage digital product companies that aren’t weighed down by the burdens of physical overhead to match inflation. These companies can be the leadership we need so companies with some physical overhead (and possible overexposure to keeping shareholders happy) will take notice on what's being spent on businesses that keep cost at fair value for their customers while still offering quality goods and services.Individuals can lessen the weight on others shoulders fulfilling discounted wishes at Bitgree.com to earn more appreciating Ꞩ's than depreciating $'s.
Anarcho Capitalism
Anarcho-capitalism (colloquially: ancap or an-cap) is an anti-statist, libertarian political philosophy and economic theory that seeks to abolish centralized states in favor of stateless societies with systems of private property enforced by private agencies, based on concepts such as the non-aggression principle, free markets and self-ownership.
Untax Yourself
There's no mandate human beings use $'s whatsoever. It's just another system. If one uses that system, one abides by it's rule set. Case and point, people have historically never paid taxes on $'s they don't own. So don't own $'s, own permissionless Ꞩ's (sats) and never go back.
"A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution." — Satoshi
Economic Transactions
Bitcoin Cash performs both autonomously and economically with no need to reject users by increasing transaction costs. The more users we have, the stronger and more decentralized Bitcoin Cash becomes.The previous Bitcoin-BTC implementation experienced multi-year cycles of rejection where transaction costs became too high due to on-chain congestion, leading to a rejection of user spending habits—an area from which mining operations sustain themselves as global decentralized payments operations.
History
"In October 2008, Satoshi Nakamoto published the famous whitepaper entitled Bitcoin: A Peer to Peer Electronic Cash System. In 2009, he released the first bitcoin software that powered the network, and it operated smoothly for several years with low fees, and fast, reliable transactions.Unfortunately, from 2016 to 2017, Bitcoin became increasingly unreliable and expensive. This was because the community could not reach consensus on increasing the network capacity. Some of the developers did not understand and agree with Satoshi’s plan. Instead, they preferred Bitcoin become a settlement layer.By 2017, Bitcoin dominance had plummeted from 95% to as low as 40% as a direct result of the usability problems. Fortunately, a large portion of the Bitcoin community, including developers, investors, users, and businesses, still believed in the original vision of Bitcoin -- a low fee, peer to peer electronic cash system that could be used by all the people of the world.On August 1st, 2017, we took the logical step of increasing the maximum block size, and Bitcoin Cash was born."- bitcoincash.org
"I consider BCH a legitimate contender for the bitcoin name. I consider bitcoin's failure to raise block sizes to keep fees reasonable to be a large (non-consensual) change to the "original plan", morally tantamount to a hard fork." — Vitalik
Privacy Options
Pseudonymous
Activity is public, but no one can detect who you are unless you inform the network. This is the state in which everyone normally starts because privacy is a choice and it requires optionality for different kinds of people and use cases.
Aliases
Zapit aliases support receiving both Bitcoin Cash and native CashTokens.
Reusable Payment Addresses
Paycodes are different from conventional public addresses because they are not associated directly with the history of the user, and in this sense, they can be shared with no worries.
CashFusion
Cash must function both publicly and privately, it's what makes it a unique form of currency and it's what allows the entire world to adopt it for its various purposes. Bitcoin Cash has the ability to be "fused" and "unfused," entering a state of total anonymity at will.
"For in every country of the world, I believe, the avarice and injustice of princes and sovereign states abusing the confidence of their subjects, have by degrees diminished the real quality of the metal, which had been originally contained in their coins." — Adam Smith 1776
Users Just
Being Users
Without an increasingly useful blockchain, operations would be subsidized by artificially inflating the price of Bitcoin or by artificially inflating fees. Both these actions have a self-correcting effect. Over-inflated prices fall and over-inflated fees reject. The creation of purchasing power is a measurement of usefulness. Every sat should someday be spendable on-chain. This on-chain spending from increasing user volume helps to "share the load." Data centers and their expansion are necessitated by users just being users.
"The current system where every user is a network node is not the intended configuration for large scale. That would be like every Usenet user [running] their own NNTP server. The design supports letting users just be users. The more burden it is to run a node, the fewer nodes there will be. Those few nodes will be big server farms. The rest will be client nodes that only do transactions and don't generate." — Satoshi
Bitcoin Cash
is Antifragile
Trustless, Globally Scaling Governance
Users decide with developers in forums on ideas, either implemented or not based on majority consent, the final buck stops with mining ops allowing or disallowing change to occur, not even devs can change the protocol if mining ops reject the proposed upgrade. This is the trustless immutability of Bitcoin Cash.Hard-Fork Consensus allows/disallows major changes of the system globally. As more mining ops join the system they too join the Hard-Fork Consensus process and therefore the system becomes better governed and so on. For this to be possible, mining ops must first be sustainably profitable as a result of high transactional volume with on-chain user spending.
“It is a global distributed database, with additions to the database by consent of the majority.”
— Satoshi
Compatible, Yet Different
With multiple independent teams of developers providing software implementations, the future is secure. Bitcoin Cash is resistant to political and social attacks on protocol development. No single group or project can control it. Multiple implementations provides redundancy to ensure the entire network of various implementations retains 100% uptime.
The Best Software Wins
On-chain spending volume determines the profitability of the payments network. Data centers primary goal is to be aligned with the user in order to maximize profitability into the long-term. The most profitable implementation of Bitcoin Cash is the one which people are using the most.
"In a correctly functioning Bitcoin network no soft forks should ever happen." — Mike Hearn
Hard-Fork Consensus
The CHIP process on the BCH network is designed to be systematic, accountable, predictable, non-coercive, and gradual, allowing for thorough evaluation and commitment before any proposed changes are implemented. This structured approach ensures the network's stability both in minimizing controversial, reckless changes and accommodating widely accepted, needed changes.

Efficiency
"Ethereum developers can think of Bitcoin Cash as featuring transaction-level sharding of both data and execution, account abstraction, deterministic gas pricing, all-or-nothing transaction chaining, zero-delay re-spending, a wider selection of MEV-resistance strategies, and no-fee contract deployment – user wallets both “deploy” and “destroy” contracts incrementally as part of their usage, improving overall network throughput and real-world privacy. All of this exists at “layer 1”, with exceptionally low-bandwidth transactions, low-resource archival nodes, ever-improving scalability (already 25,000 transactions per second on modest, 2020 hardware), and multiple strategies for “layer 2” systems if needed (e.g. Lightning Network would be more bandwidth-efficient on Bitcoin Cash than on BTC).The tradeoff between Ethereum and Bitcoin Cash is development complexity: Ethereum contracts use a simpler, single-threaded, global-state model vs. the multithreaded, stateless-validation model used by Bitcoin Cash, so Ethereum contracts are easier to develop but far more expensive to use. This architectural difference allows decentralized applications built on Bitcoin Cash to scale to millions of users without increasing transaction fees, even during periods of high network activity."- Bitcoin.com
Smart Money
Permissionless
Bitcoin Cash operates as a decentralized peer-to-peer electronic cash system, allowing users to send and receive payments without the need for a centralized intermediary like a bank. This provides fast and low-cost transactions that can be sent anywhere in the world.
Nothing Faster than Instant
Zero-confirmation transactions on Bitcoin Cash are historically safer than with any other crypto due to double spend proofs and lack of RBF (replace by fee) code.
Visa, Who?
Self-custody smart cards, self-custody NFC tap to pay and self-custody POS solutions can all interface natively with the Bitcoin Cash blockchain taking advantage of instant Zero-Confirmation transactions. Self-custody systems such as these must become standard for Bitcoin Cash to bypass Visa/Mastercard.
CashTokens
Taking advantage of the robust UTXO model to create and manage tokens and execute smart contract logic directly on the blockchain enables substantial autonomy and control for users and developers.Smart contracts and tokens on-chain eliminates the need for third parties or intermediaries to facilitate transactions or enforce agreements, which would otherwise introduce counterparty risk and potentially compromise the security and reliability of the system.
Introspection
Opcodes
L1 TX Introspection opcodes refer to low-level operations that allow a program to inspect the contents of a transaction. Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is the only Bitcoin technology chain with full L1 TX Introspection opcodes.Full introspection opcodes enable UTXO smart contracts, on chain tokens, atomic swaps, high-security wallets, time-delayed withdrawals, distress modes, and much more.
256-Bit Architecture *2025
Ensuring compatibility with modern systems is crucial for longevity. By implementing scalable mathematics, we can guarantee adaptability for future developments. Additionally, expanding the address space not only enhances functionality but also allows for a greater number of users and transactions. This improvement bolsters security by minimizing the risk of address collisions, streamlining data processing, and ultimately delivering superior performance and faster calculations.
Stewardship
Being a good steward of your money involves intentionality and discipline in aligning your financial decisions with core principles, which foster peace, blesses others, and creates a positive impact.
Provide Liquidity
Purchasing power increases with usefulness. The Bitcoin Cash blockchain enables high-velocity transactions for ideas (CashTokens) to come to life, allowing liquidity providers to potentially achieve exceptionally high real-yields.
Budget
Create a budget that you can manage effectively, ideally with a partner if applicable, ensuring to include essential expenses like spending, saving, and charitable giving.
Give Generously
Be intentional about giving a portion of your income as it fosters generosity, guards against greed, and demonstrates trust.
Avoid Debt
Live within your means to avoid unnecessary debt, and if you do have debt, create a repayment plan and utilize local food banks if needed.
Save For The Future
Set aside as many Ꞩ's (sats) as you need in a self-custody savings wallet even in small amounts, to prepare for unexpected expenses and ensure long-term financial security.
