Bitcoin Cash / US Dollar (BCHUSD) market data
Bitcoin Cash priced in USD (BCHUSD).
About Bitcoin Cash / US Dollar (BCHUSD)
BCHUSD is the price of one Bitcoin Cash coin in US dollars. Bitcoin Cash is a separate chain that split from Bitcoin in 2017, and it trades independently on many venues, which is why a consolidated price is worth more than any single book.
SiftingIO aggregates BCHUSD into one fair price across multiple centralized venues. The live quote returns price, bid, ask, a basis-point spread, 24-hour volume and change, the count of contributing venues, and a timestamp. It is available as a REST snapshot and as a WebSocket subscription.
Historical open, high, low, close, and volume bars come over REST from one-minute up to hourly resolution, with broader intervals on the product side, and bar volume is denominated in Bitcoin Cash. History depth follows your plan tier, from a recent free-tier window to the full archive above it. The pricing page gives the exact windows.
The stream ticks faster on higher tiers, one to ten updates per second, and the median publish age stays under 100 milliseconds as a measure of freshness. Each price is a volume and reputation weighted median with source, ingest, and publish timestamps and a quality flag attached.
