HandCash co-founder Alex Agut took the stage at the recently held London BCH Speakers Series II, an event organized by Cryptartica, to share a glimpse of how Cashport will bring about “new money movement” for the world with Bitcoin BCH.
What the world needs right now, according to HandCash co-founder Alex Agut, is new money—one that allows for micropayments, instant and secure, with low fees, and more importantly, does away with the need for a middleman.
In short, “the new money is money available everywhere but always under your control,” Agut told the audience at the London BCH Speakers Series II at the Huckleberry in Shoreditch.
Bitcoin Cash (BCH) fits all the requirements of a new money, except that it’s not intuitive—yet—for people to use it. This is the reason behind the development of the HandCash app, which allows transactions to occur without requests for addresses or QR codes.
The app, of which blockchain technology research and development firm nChain acquired a majority stake in May 2018, features a “Human UX” that enable users to “send money to anyone just by knowing their handle” and contact information, among other cool stuff, according to Agut.
For businesses, the team behind HandCash has recently released a free software development kit (SDK) allowing apps and games to connect to the HandCash wallet. Cashport is a micropayments ecosystem that lets users earn and spend across multiple devices.
“Cashport is very easy set of SDKs that you can integrate in a few minutes in any app or game or any platform… and you can integrate micropayments and Bitcoin Cash payments. It takes care of all the complexities for the business. So the user connects with HandCash, and with HandCash they can just log in into Cashport. It’s a very friendly SDK that you can implement in Android and iOS or web right now, and it’s free,” Agut said.
To learn more about Cashport, don’t miss the CoinGeek Week Conference happening at the Mermaid, Puddle Dock in London on November 28-30 (with a special, invitation-only Miners Day event on November 27). Alex Agut and the HandCash team will be on hand at the four-day event to share their vision for a new money movement with Bitcoin Cash.

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is today the only Bitcoin implementation that follows Satoshi Nakamoto’s original whitepaper for Peer to Peer Electronic Cash. Bitcoin BCH is the only major public blockchain that maintains the original vision for Bitcoin as fast, frictionless, electronic cash.

Firms in the blockchain and cryptocurrency space have come out in support of Bitcoin SV, in light of the recent Bitcoin Cash hard fork.
Money Button, which runs Yours.org allowing users to monetize content in Bitcoin Cash, said in a blog post that “Bitcoin SV is the closest blockchain to the original Bitcoin protocol,” which the company said “fully and completely solved the problem of sound money for the entire world.”
Unlike with the ABC implementation that maintains a maximum block size of 32MB, Bitcoin SV has increased this to 128MB. Money Button supported this update, saying, “We need to raise the limits to the edge of the abilities of the software, and identify and fix all scaling limitations.”
Money Button CEO Ryan X. Charles, in a YouTube video, made similar points as in the blog post, noting that Bitcoin ABC and its supporters seemed to lack a clear mission statement. “In my opinion, the way this looks, is that you guys didn’t actually rally around the idea of sound digital money for the entire world. No one actually really cared about CTOR, and CDS, and the clean-stack rule. What you guys actually rallied around was booting Craig Wright from the community. You actually decided to agree to these unusual changes that not really everyone agreed to, but you agreed to them anyway because you realized this was a way to actually extract Craig,” he said.
Charles said that while it was unclear what the forked coins’ ticker symbols will be, “I personally don’t care about the name… What we’re really trying to do here is create Bitcoin at scale… We’re trying to solve problems for real people here. They don’t care what the name is.”
Blockchain-powered social media platform Matter.cash tweeted that it was running Bitcoin SV, but added, “We are still open on how to support both ABC and SV, and for now we needed to make a decision to move forward.”

We made this decision based on numerous factors that are similiar to @money_button
We are still open on how to support both ABC and SV, and for now we needed to make a decision to move forward.#Bitcoin #BTC #BCH #BSV

Alex Agut of HandCash said his company will be following the Bitcoin SV ruleset “exclusively,” because of the “honest hash” used for mining operations, that is, hash power not borrowed from other networks. Agut pointed out that, contrary to what many are now saying, the hash war “is not over yet… It could take weeks or months, but based on hashpower and economic incentives, the SV ruleset is most probably going to be the imposed ruleset for BCH in the end, and we do not wish to change chains again. There is no technical indicator that points to another possible result.”
James Belding of Tokenized, the company that was recently awarded £5 million for its Bitcoin Cash tokenization solution, tweeted, “The Tokenized team will be supporting Bitcoin SV (BSV) exclusively. We firmly believe in the original vision of Bitcoin, as described in the WP and Satoshi’s early writings, and are proud to keep working to bring sound money to the world.” He said of ABC supporters, “We hope to join forces again in the future. We know how much you all care about the mission.”

Bitcoin Cash wallet Centbee said in a tweet that it was supporting “the original #Bitcoin Protocol as described in the Satoshi Nakamoto white paper. @BitcoinSVNode is the only implementation that follows this protocol and that is why we support it.”

The developers of the popular Handcash wallet have released their latest creation. They have introduced a software developer’s kit (SDK) called Cashport, which uses Bitcoin BCH as a payment rail and connects to the Handcash wallet. It allows for easier onboarding with users of Handcash and, even better, is free to use. The only fees are those associated with Bitcoin BCH transactions, which are the lowest among the leading cryptocurrencies.
When the project was discussed on Reddit, one user asked if it was similar to a combination of Cash Id and the Money Button. Alex Agut, who was behind Handcash’s designed, said that the correlation was close, but that Cashport went further. He explained, “[Cashport] is also for mobile apps and games — the goal is to create an ecosystem where your money is always available through thousands of apps and games. Just one account — No more deposits or withdrawals, copy and paste or QR codes — Just flows.”
Cashport sits in the background without needed user interaction. This gives developers the ability to focus on the creation of their applications and user experiences. This can be especially beneficial in the development of apps that use a pay-per-minute model or deal with micropayments. Agut asserted, “We wanted a very easy way for developers and businesses to implement micropayments with zero bitcoin knowledge.”
Cashport is a non-custodial solution. This is an added feature and gives users a greater amount of security, as the platform never holds any user funds. The SKD has been made available for typescript and Android systems, with both being offered as open-source applications on GitHub. An iOS version is expected to be released sometime soon.
According to the developers, Cashport is going to be a vital component to monetize user interactions while allowing developers to focus on new app creation. With just a few API (application program interface) keys and the implementation of the SDK, “money has never been simpler.”
This latest application is another example of why the Bitcoin BCH blockchain is continuing to become more important to the digital currency ecosystem. It is the only cryptocurrency that is being developed to serve the real purpose of being used as a peer-to-peer currency and constantly gaining wider adoption because of its strength and value as an alternative to fiat.
