IS IT BCC OR BCH OR WHAT?

in cryptocurrency •  7 years ago  (edited)

Wow, Bitcoin Cash recently had one amazing bull run — and I personally still think the best is yet to come. Not to toot my horn, but I was running with those bulls, and even picked up some more Bitcoin Cash today when it dipped under $6, just getting ready to run one more time. Interestingly, while I was enjoying a little BE-SURE-AND-BUY-ON-THE-DIP MANIA, I noticed something peculiar, and I’m wondering is it just me? or must I research a new issue at every turn on the web today, especially in the crypto space. 

Today, for instance, I came across something about PI, and even that turned into an all day event — seriously, for it seems Tau is somehow better, with a proof video that showed the diameter being incorrectly divided by the circum (maybe you can spell it) — and wait, just wait, before we go over that lonely, dusty road again. Back to the glory, the glory of Bitcoin Cash.

I noticed that when I was checking coincap.io — as admittedly I do, and buying on the Bittrex exchange, I noticed a point of consideration, possibly of delusion. The following question emerged: Is BCC the same as BCH? Well then, what am I trading? My gosh, on Coincap.io the Bitcoin (ticker) is BCH, what? I could have sworn I was trading BCC. Upon returning to the exchange, it was confirmed: I was trading BCC. So, why then was I checking the price for BCH on Coincap.io?  The word amateur came to mind. But even coinmarketcap.com was showing BCH. So was it I who was the amateur — or was it, in fact, the pros-until-now-presumed?

To decide this bout, even quicker than the McGregor-Mayweather Fight, I turned to the Bitcoin Cash website at www.bitcoincash.org. And the winner is BCC by knockout, or at least it seemed to me. Who am I to question the official website? It states BCC clearly enough.

Remember I’m just a lowly STEEMIT aspirer and semi-pro crypto-currency trader with a cool moniker pointing out issues that may help my followers on their journey to greater awareness. Please avoid this potential stumbling block. Onward followers, the road to the crypto promise land lies ahead.

And note, love reciprocated is always appreciated — especially when its STEEM-in HOT!

BitConnect is listed as BCC, I guess they maybe claim it first?

They had to change it to BCH afterwards. It seems they were unaware of Bitconnect (BCC) ; one of the scam coins out there.

Well, questioning isn't bad. Imagine how better off the world would be if everyone questioned the book of life.
