Bitcoin Cash Hard Fork – BCHABC and BCHSV
On 15 November 2018, Bitcoin Cash underwent a hard fork and is permanently split into two chains – Bitcoin Cash ABC and Bitcoin Cash SV. For a few days, this resulted in 3 Bitcoin Cash profiles on CoinGecko – Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Bitcoin Cash ABC (BCHABC), and Bitcoin Cash SV (BCHSV).
On 19 November 2018, 07:30 UTC, we at @coingecko merged our Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and Bitcoin Cash ABC (BCHABC) profile in order to better reflect the market. Based on our observation, most exchanges are using Bitcoin Cash (BCH) to refer to the Bitcoin ABC implementation: https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bitcoin-cash
This has caused the Bitcoin Cash (BCH) market value to reflect closer to the Bitcoin ABC implementation. CoinGecko has decided to merge both the Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Cash ABC profile as maintaining both profiles will lead to market confusion.
A number of exchanges have supported Bitcoin Cash SV or Bitcoin SV as a fork and a new trading pair. You can see the list of exchanges supporting BSV here: https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bitcoin-cash-sv
We have completed all exchange mappings for Bitcoin Cash (ABC) and you can see the list of exchanges calling it BCH, BCHABC, or BAB here: https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bitcoin-cash/trading_exchanges
Do be careful when trading these pairs. Expect more announcements to be made from companies offering greater clarity on which chain they will support in the coming days. We will monitor and update based on market situation. Coin.Dance has done an excellent job tracking this fork and is a good place to follow development: https://cash.coin.dance

Thanks for the clarification as this whole fork has been quite confusing giving how the forks have been positioned differently depending on the exchange.
thank you very much for the information @coingecko
thank you my teacher @coingecko this post is very useful for us and crypto.but honestly, I don't understand how to differentiate ABC Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Cash SV. Please explain more clearly ...
warm greetings to teacher @coingecko
Don't understand, why BCH create another BCHABC...
Still, thanks for your post about BCH @coingecko !
Very useful information is shared by you. In fact, before that, we did not even mention the name of Bitcoin Cash ABC./bitcoin cash SV
Even though we checked the link by opening the link, he is now quoting that bitcoin cash ABC inactive, but now all people will be alerted and there will never be any confusion in both of these ears.
Thank you very much for sharing such important information. @CoinGecko
Yes, this is because we've moved the data from BCHABC to BCH itself.
Hence, only BCH and BCHSV is left. As we acknowledge that BCHABC is the main BCH chain.
I was little bit confused making difference about these two coins BCHABC and BCHSV
@coingecko sir! You have solved this confusion. A lot of happens in a short time. You are really providing helpful informations about crypto, A lot of people who love crypto are happy with your exchange and your service. thanks alot sir
we are not an exchange.. 😅😅
I know sir you are not exchange .I am talking about your site https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bitcoin-cash/trading_exchanges
You guys went ahead of the curve to make things less confusing to the everyday crypto-traders while most other sites still stagger along to "wait-and-see". Great work!
Should be clear by now which cryptoprice website is better than the rest.
