On 15 November 2018, Bitcoin Cash underwent a hard fork and is permanently split into two chains – Bitcoin Cash ABC and Bitcoin Cash SV. For a few days, this resulted in 3 Bitcoin Cash profiles on CoinGecko – Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Bitcoin Cash ABC (BCHABC), and Bitcoin Cash SV (BCHSV).
On 19 November 2018, 07:30 UTC, we at @coingecko merged our Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and Bitcoin Cash ABC (BCHABC) profile in order to better reflect the market. Based on our observation, most exchanges are using Bitcoin Cash (BCH) to refer to the Bitcoin ABC implementation: https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bitcoin-cash
This has caused the Bitcoin Cash (BCH) market value to reflect closer to the Bitcoin ABC implementation. CoinGecko has decided to merge both the Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Cash ABC profile as maintaining both profiles will lead to market confusion.
A number of exchanges have supported Bitcoin Cash SV or Bitcoin SV as a fork and a new trading pair. You can see the list of exchanges supporting BSV here: https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bitcoin-cash-sv
We have completed all exchange mappings for Bitcoin Cash (ABC) and you can see the list of exchanges calling it BCH, BCHABC, or BAB here: https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bitcoin-cash/trading_exchanges
Do be careful when trading these pairs. Expect more announcements to be made from companies offering greater clarity on which chain they will support in the coming days. We will monitor and update based on market situation. Coin.Dance has done an excellent job tracking this fork and is a good place to follow development: https://cash.coin.dance
