Since almost every financial organization that offers cryptocurrency investment is having Bitcoin Cash as a priority, it is safe to assume that it is also recognized it as an asset with huge potential. Institutional and accredited investors are those mostly investing through these platforms (except PayPal) and, unlike Robinhood, CashApp, and other apps for micro investors, these are the real deal.

Let’s recap which cryptocurrencies the leading financial organizations and payment networks consider Bitcoin Cash as a top selection:

i) PayPal: (BCH — BTC — ETH — LTC)

Since 2020, it offers trading of Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH) and Litecoin (LTC) for US customers and recently expanded its “crypto” operations in the UK.

ii) Grayscale: (BCHG — GBTC — ETHE — LTCN — ETCG)

The Grayscale Bitcoin Cash Trust (BCHG) has now been approved as a SEC reporting company, together with ETC and LTC funds. It opens up the way for a Bitcoin Cash ETF in the future. This move was a catalyst for Ethereum institutional adoption in 2020 (the price of ETH is now 30x higher).

There is a question that baffles many investors in the crypto field:

Why is Bitcoin Cash currently placed at historic low spots in crypto market cap indexes, sitting below many new and even untested cryptocurrencies?

Bitcoin Cash is a top candidate and always included as an investment option, together with a small number of other cryptocurrencies by all financial institutions. The latest one is Interactive Brokers that prioritized Bitcoin Cash from any of the rest in the market cap lists.

Bitcoin Cash has solidified its position as one of the top four cryptocurrencies and it is only a matter of time before this is also manifested in the market cap indexes.

One can only assume that the price of BCH is still suppressed and there will be a moment of explosive rise, due to this acceptance, developments, mass adoption levels, and a vast increase in user-base.
