After the surprising high of Bitcoin Cash [BCH] at the beginning of the past weekend, proponents looked hopeful but the market correction soon pushed back the positive prospects. Just a day after BCH added over $60 million to its market cap in, the market cap stumbled by 5.43 percent as stabilizing forces began to take over.
The price of Bitcoin Cash has declined by over 5 percent against the US dollar and is now the second-worst performing coin in the top-10, behind Litecoin [LTC]. The market cap of the Bitcoin hardfork is now under $2.2 billion, with the coin’s price down to $124, after reaching $131 just 48 hours ago.
In terms of exchange volume division, P2PB2B boasts the three highest BCH trading volumes, with $16.47 million (7.29 percent), $15.47 million (6.85 percent), and $14.78 million (6.54 percent) with the BCH/USD, BCH/BTC, and BCH/ETH respectively. The trailing top exchanges are LBank and BitMart.
