Questions, answered
How much does it cost to buy Bitcoin Cash right now?
At 2026-10-04 14:48 UTC, $1,000 of BCH cost $4.38 all-in at Kraken (fee plus spread) — cheapest of 4 exchanges.
Why does the same Bitcoin Cash buy cost different amounts per exchange?
Fee schedules differ per exchange, and each order book carries its own spread; fee plus spread is the all-in cost compared.
Why the advertised fee misleads
Spread is a price, not a percentage.
0.10% on $1,000 is one dollar; the spread you cross is often more — ranked by BCH received. Method →
