This article presents the latest news and projects related to Bitcoin Cash, including its application in scientific publishing and identity.
Comparison of Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash
The Bitcoin Cash University channel released a video where developer Sayoshi Nakamario explains the differences between Bitcoin (BTC) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH). The video highlights that BTC became 'digital gold' with high fees, while BCH continued Satoshi Nakamoto's original plan for 'programmable cash', offering smart contracts and NFTs without compromising decentralization.
Identity through BitCANN
In a new episode of the Bitcoin Cash Podcast, the BitCANN project is introduced by Kuldeep (Kiok), CTO of the Zapit wallet. BitCANN offers a protocol turning BCH into a versatile tool for decentralized identity, including NFT domains and private payment codes. The OpenCashDAO proposal is also discussed, allowing token holders to vote on contract upgrades.
Potential of Bitcoin Cash in the scientific field
The Journal of Global Surgery, edited by Dr. Saqib Noor, has presented a new model for open access to scientific data. The study focused on nutritional practices among breast cancer patients in Tanzania, fully funded through microtransactions totaling $76 via Bitcoin Cash. This illustrates that BCH can facilitate the democratization of knowledge and study dietary inequalities.
Bitcoin Cash continues to evolve and find new applications in various fields, from decentralized identity to scientific publishing.
