The Bitpocalypse: Is Bitcoin Cash the End of the Crypto World?

"It’s the end of bitcoin as we know it, and I feel fine! (LEONARD BERNSTEIN!)" What is Bitcoin Cash and why did the bitcoin blockchain split into two ledgers?  What does it mean? Joel and Travis tackle this challenging question in episode 005 of The Bad Crypto Podcast. After years of arguing on the future of Bitcoin’s software should evolve in response to the digital currency’s growth over time, the users and miners have disagreed on the direction of the coin, and the technology has split.  Is this a good thing or a bad thing? Well, it’s a bit confusing.   Bitcoin? More like Splitcoin! Am I right, you guys?! We also discuss Joel’s upcoming journey to his first cryptocurrency conference, D10E, coming up at the end of next week. And did you know that you can make your very own cryptocurrency for about $3?  We chat about that, as well!   Support the show: https://badcryptopodcast.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
