What is Blockchain !

“The practical consequence […is…] for the first time, a way for one Internet user to transfer a unique piece of digital property to another Internet user, such that the transfer is guaranteed to be safe and secure, everyone knows that the transfer has taken place, and nobody can challenge the legitimacy of the transfer. The consequences of this breakthrough are hard to overstate.” – Marc Andreessen From a cruising altitude, a blockchain might not look that different from things you’re familiar with, say Wikipedia. With a blockchain, many people can write entries into a record of information, and a community of users can control how the record of information is amended and updated. Likewise, Wikipedia entries are not the product of a single publisher. No one person controls the information.

As part of its 12 Days of Consecutive Announcement , major cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase has launched a new feature that allows investors to convert their cryptocurrencies into other digital assets, according to a company announcement on December 17, 2018.

With this feature, customers would be able to convert between Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin and 0X, for the initial rollout.   So, a trader can directly convert Bitcoin to Bitcoin Cash, rather than sell Bitcoin and then purchase Bitcoin Cash, which becomes two separate transactions with double fees.
