As part of knowing the developers, we will be taking a look at Bitcoin Cash and its two most popular repositories, Bitcoin ABC and Bitcoin Unlimited.
This is the first cryptocurrency we will be looking at that is a fork of Bitcoin (BTC). In August of 2017, conflict grew over increasing the “block size” of the network. This would have raised the maximum number of transactions a single block could contain. Despite consensus and concerns, some developers decided to move forward and increase the block size themselves, thus creating an entirely new network, Bitcoin Cash.
When looking at the number of contributors or commits, it is important to note because a fork like Bitcoin Cash will share the same history in its source code up until the point the two split off, and as result Bitcoin’s commit history also ends up on Bitcoin Cash’s repository.
