What is a Bitcoin Cash node?

A Bitcoin Cash node is a computer with specific software that allows users to participate in the network by running a node. It helps maintain the network's security and decentralization by validating transactions and blocks.

How to run a Bitcoin Cash node?

To run a Bitcoin Cash node, you need to download and install a node software such as Bitcoin ABC or Bitcoin Unlimited. Once installed, you can configure the node's settings and start the software to connect to the network.

What is a BCH full node?

A BCH full node refers to a complete copy of the Bitcoin Cash blockchain, which includes all transaction history from the genesis block. Running a BCH full node allows users to independently verify and validate transactions, improving the overall security and trustlessness of the network.

What is Bitcoin Cash RPC?

Bitcoin Cash RPC (Remote Procedure Call) is a protocol that enables communication between different software applications and a network node. It allows developers to send commands to a node and retrieve information or perform actions such as creating transactions, querying the blockchain, or managing wallets programmatically.

How does Bitcoin Cash API work?

Bitcoin Cash API (Application Programming Interface) provides a set of tools and protocols for developers to interact with the blockchain programmatically. It allows developers to retrieve data from the blockchain, send and receive transactions, and perform various operations related to the blockchain without directly accessing the node's internal functionalities. Developers can integrate the Bitcoin Cash API into their applications to build wallets, exchanges, or other services that interact with the network.

BCH APIS FOR DAPPS

Bitcoin Cash RPC: Why should you choose it?

Bitcoin Cash is one of the most successful forks of the Bitcoin network. It launched in 2017 as a project of a group of BTC developers who opposed the implementation of Segregated Witnesses (SegWit) scalability technology.

From the onset, it has been promoted as a cryptocurrency for retail payments. It verifies transactions faster than Bitcoin, so BCH RPC APIs are suitable for usage in e-commerce and in PoS terminals.
In November, 2020, the initial version of Bitcoin Cash protocol was forked: new currency was called BitcoinABC or BCHA. Both BCH node versions are based on Proof-of-Work consensus and SHA-256 cryptography.
BCH protocol is associated with the name of Roger Ver, one of the first Bitcoin evangelists also known as “Bitcoin Jesus”. He promotes his brainchild as the only original implementation of “digital peer-to-peer cash” envisaged by Satoshi Nakamoto.
