<p>The Bitcoin Cash halving event is expected to take place on April 4.</p> 
<h2 id="bch-s-price-spike-triggers">BCH’s price spike triggers</h2> 
<p>The recent spike in price for BCH can be attributed to a few triggers.</p> 
<h3 id="bitcoin-cash-halving">Bitcoin Cash halving</h3> 
<p>First of all, the anticipation surrounding the upcoming<a href="https://crypto.ro/en/predictions/bitcoin-cash-bch-price-prediction/"> Bitcoin Cash</a> halving, which is scheduled to take place on April 4, has contributed to the bullish sentiment.</p> 
<p>The upcoming halving event will cut block mining rewards by 50%. This is expected to decrease inflation and make the coin more scarce. In the past, such events have caused the price of Bitcoin (BTC) to increase significantly.</p> 
<p>Bitcoin will experience its own <a href="https://crypto.ro/en/news/bitcoin-halving-21-days-to-go-1-trillion-injection-in-btc-via-etfs-predicted/">halving event</a> on April 20. Both BTC and BCH will have their respective halvings at the same block height. However, a change in the mining algorithm resulted in BCH having a different mining rate and, therefore, a different halving date.</p> 
<h3 id="roger-ver-places-the-spotlight-on-bch">Roger Ver places the spotlight on BCH</h3> 
<p>The second factor that may have triggered a spike in price for BCH is the fact that the coin has returned to the spotlight following the publication of a book by Roger Ver. This reignited debates about the ethos behind Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin.</p> 
<p>From a technical point of view, BCH’s positive performance seems to be defying the overall market trends, and it’s worth noting that its bullish trend is not just a short-term phenomenon.</p> 
<p>The digital asset has more than doubled its price since the beginning of the year.</p> 
<p>Coinbase Derivatives <a href="https://crypto.ro/en/news/coinbase-enhances-crypto-trading-with-dogecoin-litecoin-bitcoin-cash-futures-from-april-1/">announced</a> the introduction of futures trading for Bitcoin Cash at the beginning of March.</p> 
<h3 id="bitcoin-cash-network-expects-an-update-in-may">Bitcoin Cash network expects an update in May</h3> 
<p>In 47 days, on May 15th, 2024, there will also be an update to the Bitcoin Cash network. This update will implement the CHIP 2023-04 Adaptive Blocksize Limit Algorithm.</p> 
<p>This algorithm is designed to have minimal impact on the existing dynamics and incentives within the Bitcoin Cash ecosystem.</p> 
<p>The current 32 MB cap will remain as the base “stand-by” value, and any increases by the algorithm will be supported by actual transaction volume as additional capacity.</p> 
<p>More information about this algorithm can be found on <a href="https://gitlab.com/0353F40E/ebaa" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">gitlab.com</a>.</p>
