Our Bitcoin Cash wallet has been down for over a week due to the uncertainty surrounding the recent Bitcoin Cash ABC and Bitcoin Cash SV forks of the blockchain. Issues such as lack of replay protection, varying pricing methods across exchanges, and threats of hash wars between the forks led us to delay re-enabling the wallet until things seemed to calm down a bit. It also didn't help that the calming occurred when we were in middle of Thanksgiving holiday, when most of our US staff was enjoying some well-deserved vacation time with their families.
But I'm happy to announce that we've officially re-enabled our Bitcoin Cash ABC wallet today and you can once again buy and sell it on our site.
Tomorrow we'll be evaluating available pricing info for Bitcoin Cash SV, with an eye towards enabling it tomorrow if all goes well.
Important note for BlockTrades API users and users of old bitcoin cash mappings: we've discontinued the use of the coin_type bch (former coin type for Bitcoin Cash). We have two new coin_types: bchabc and bchsv. This means that any old mappings using the bch coin type will no longer work with our API and new mappings will have to be created for the new coin types.
