On August 1, 2017, bitcoin broke the internet. Since the event, which is referred to as the hard fork, cryptocurrency enthusiasts can now make use of two different currencies: bitcoin (BTC) and Bitcoin Cash (BCC).
In our previous article, we showed users how to securely extract Bitcoin Cash from their BTC.com web wallets. Since then, we’ve been working hard to embrace Bitcoin Cash and make it more accessible to the community.
As of August 4, 2017, both current and new BTC.com users can send, receive, and store Bitcoin Cash in the BTC.com Bitcoin Cash wallet.
