I think the biggest difference between Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash is mining algorithms. At its inception, Bitcoin Cash had an easier mining algorithm. An easier mining algorithm was deemed to be necessary for BCH to keep a competitive edge against the more-valuable bitcoin and to attract the miners needed to run the network.

Bitcoin Cash was deliberately split away from Bitcoin by a team that thought high fees and slow transactions would eventually destroy Bitcoin. It was deliberately designed to essentially be Bitcoin, except easy to send, receive and transact with. Hence the “cash” part of its name. It was designed to be the spending money next to Bitcoin’s gold.

Bitcoin Cash has cheaper transfer fees (around $0.20 per transaction), so making transactions in BCH will save you more money than using BTC. A BTC transaction can cost around $1 USD per transaction, although it previously went up to around $25 per transaction.

I still choose Bitcoin, because I do not think anyone can beat Bitcoin until now.

BCH has faster transfer times. So, you don’t have to wait the 10 minutes it takes to verify a Bitcoin transaction. Moreover, BCH can handle more transactions per second. This means that more people can use BCH at the same time than they can with BTC.

The main advantage of Bitcoin Cash is that it is cheaper and faster to use. This is because it is more scalable, meaning that more people can transact on the blockchain at any given time.

I think Bitcoin Cash is cheaper to move around between exchanges. Whenever its price surges, it is a great trading asset against Bitcoin and a solid investment to hedge against Bitcoin, should Bitcoin lose its market dominance one day.

Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash are not the same cryptocurrency. Bitcoin is the king of cryptocurrency world and Bitcoin Cash is just a child of Bitcoin. It was created by Bitcoin hardfork. I think the main difference is the block size. Bitcoin is still stuck with 1 MB max size per block, while Bitcoin Cash has the same capped at 8 MB. Maybe it will be 32 MB by increasing. Bitcoin is decentralized while Bitcoin Cash is centralized coin. Bitcoin is more secure than Bitcoin Cash.

[Azaria Rodriguez]

The disadvantages of Bitcoin when compared to Bitcoin Cash mainly regard the scalability issues facing Bitcoin. Bitcoin is older, slower and costs a lot more per transaction. It is likely that as the sector grows, Bitcoin will continue to lose its dominance to these other coins.

Why we need BitcoinCash, BitcoinGold, BitcoinDiamond, BitcoinAtom?
Faster and cheaper transactions  than Bitcoin, but who cares? They are useful, nobody will use them, because they have no value, no real use.

[Wasaisisi]

I think the difference is that bitcoin was created earlier and more interested than bitcoincash. As well as the striking difference is the higher bitcoin value of bitcoincash.

[JP_crypto]

What makes them different is that Bitcoin Cash has a block size limit of 8 MB — eight times more than Bitcoin. This allows it to process more transactions per day, speed up processing times, and reduce fees. Their transaction fees are much cheaper when compared to those of its rival. But they will increase once more people start using the currency.

[mochisamichi]

Bitcoin has much greater security and stability, as there is more mining support and infrastructure behind it. Bitcoin currently has around 10x more full nodes than Bitcoin Cash, and thus a much more distributed network. But the tradeoff is time: when the Bitcoin network is saturated, transactions tend to take longer than Bitcoin Cash transactions to be confirmed, and have much higher fees.

[TirionLannister]

Bitcoin is 1 mb block, Bitcoin Cach is now 32 mb block. But nevertheless, Bitcoin has a new technology called Lightning Network. Thanks to her Bitcoin is in no way inferior to Bitcoin Cash. Transactions have become fast and inexpensive.

[craZyLovE0916]

Bitcoin is a better coin than bitcoin cash. Bitcoin cash is just a cheap knock off that is just preying off the success of bitcoin. I don't see any reason why people would want to compare bitcoin cash to bitcoin. there is no way that bitcoin cash will ever be better than bitcoin regardless of the 32mb block that bitcoin cash is boasting of. It won't change the fact that it is still a cheap knockoff

[arienna23]

What are the main differences between bitcoin and bitcoincash?

Bitcoin is the real original while Bitcoin Cash is a copycat altcoin that tries to overthrown Bitcoin because of the greediness of the developers and the supporters of it. Bitcoin Cash created money out of thin air.

[shulc7]

What are the main differences between bitcoin and bitcoincash?

Roger Ver made a great buzz speculating on the theme of Bitcoin Cash that will conquer Bitcoin. But I don’t think that it will happen at least in near future. Technologically BCH is more advanced but this is not all we need to know.

[xyzone]

Bitcoin remains the current flag because everyone knows the first bitcoin and bitcoin cash is only considered airdrop from bitcoin.

[forbesmining]

I know the technical side, but more interesting for guys here would be that Bitcoin is a king, and #1, and BitcoinCash sounds like cheap namedropping

[hihitao41]

Bitcoin Cash uses a different hash algorithm to the one Bitcoin uses. So, the replay between the two chains is no longer possible. Furthermore, a new algorithm which ensures normal chain work in case of dramatic changes of the number of miners provides additional stability to the currency as a whole.
