Bitcoin cash has secured its place as a top cryptocurrency within a day of entering the marketplace.
According to Coinmarketcap.com, the cryptocurrency is trading at about $490 a coin, and its market cap now stands above $8 billion. As such, it is the third-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, surpassing big-name coins such as Ripple ($6.7 billion) and Litecoin ($2.2 billion).
Bitcoin cash came to fruition Tuesday after it split from the original network that powers its crypto-cousin, bitcoin. The split was preceded by a multiyear war among bitcoin power brokers over the rules that guide the digital currency's network.
