*Bitcoin Cash* (BCH) is a hard fork of Bitcoin created in August 2017, increasing the block size limit to enable higher transaction throughput and lower fees for on-chain payments. It retains Bitcoin's UTXO model and proof-of-work consensus while targeting fast, low-cost peer-to-peer transactions. BCH also supports a simple scripting layer for basic token and contract operations (CashTokens).

Bitcoin Cash nodes expose a [JSON-RPC](https://www.jsonrpc.org/specification) interface based on the Bitcoin Core RPC standard, with additions specific to BCH consensus rules.
