TBI - November 15, 2018

The Bitcoin Cash hard fork just officially happened, and we have an hour of transactions and mined blocks in the books.

Bitcoin Cash ABC (backed by Roger Ver and Jihan Wu) is out to an early lead…mining new network blocks with about twice the hash power of Bitcoin Cash SV (backed by Craig Wright). We’ll keep an eye on that over the weekend, as well as the wild swings in price between the two.

At 11:30pm ET, BCHSV was at $178 to BCHABC’s $210 on Poloniex.

At 3:00pm ET, that’s now $81 for BCHSV, and $318 for BCHABC.

Price. Price. Price.
