Bitcoin Cash Rises Amid Broader Crypto Rally: What's Going On?

Bitcoin Cash BCH/USD rose 2.6% Thursday morning to $431.48, benefiting from strong momentum across the crypto market as Bitcoin surged to a new all-time high above $111,000.

What To Know: This broader rally is being driven by institutional inflows, post-halving supply constraints, and dovish macroeconomic signals, though experts warn of structural risks, including quantum computing’s long-term threat to blockchain security.

Bitcoin's latest surge, which briefly pushed total crypto market capitalization above $3.5 trillion, is marked by spot demand and record ETF inflows.

Analysts from Bitfinex and Bitget emphasized that the current uptrend is fundamentally sound, with stable funding rates and rising open interest. However, market sentiment is nearing “extreme greed,” increasing the risk of a short-term pullback.

What Else: Bitcoin Cash, originally launched in 2017 as a hard fork of Bitcoin, was designed to offer faster transactions and lower fees by increasing block size.

Unlike Bitcoin, which prioritizes decentralization and security, BCH focuses on usability as a peer-to-peer digital currency, aligning more closely with Bitcoin’s original vision as outlined in Satoshi Nakamoto’s whitepaper.

BCH's gain Thursday likely reflects investor optimism around institutional crypto adoption, regulatory progress and blockchain scalability innovations being debated at the policy level.
