Introduction

Certainly, anyone in the Bitcoin Cash space has heard or read about General Protocols, an organization dedicated to building useful products for maximizing financial freedom on top of Bitcoin Cash.

In its time in action, General Protocols has carried out a lot of work to increase the performance of Bitcoin Cash, created products that help to better understand the advantages of using Bitcoin Cash, or even produced products with the aim of better developing the Bitcoin Cash-based economy in a simple, practical, and peer-to-peer way.

The Mission of General Protocols

General Protocols is proud to be a builder of a bright future using the programmable money of Bitcoin Cash and, thus, provide the world with a decentralized economy using solutions achieved in blockchain. The organization believes that smart contracts found in programmable money are the basis of a trillion-dollar industry spearheaded in non-custodial networks and that these will one day be the integral basis of man's daily life.

General Protocols builds open-to-use ecosystems that will help the new generation of innovators by empowering them.

Empowering Businesses with DeFi

And not only that, the organization also focuses its work on creating protocols that help businesses to make more profit using decentralized finance—an ecosystem in constant growth—constituting a bridge between the challenges that the industry may face, combining the unimaginable and possible advantages that decentralized finance can carry out.

Projects Built by General Protocols

Below are some key projects General Protocols has built on the Bitcoin Cash network:

AnyHedge: Smart Contract for Stability and Speculation

AnyHedge – It is a smart contract built on the Bitcoin Cash blockchain that provides stability and speculation solutions at the same time. It should be noted that AnyHedge is the first serious financial product created in the form of a contract on the Bitcoin Cash mainnet.

AnyHedge is a decentralized solution that allows anyone who interacts with the smart contract to take trade positions using Bitcoin Cash or even fiat money. This product allows the person who interacts with the contract to use Bitcoin Cash to go long positions at more than 10x against a huge range of assets that the technology will present.

One of the applications that benefit from the technology included in AnyHedge is BCHBULL , which allows users to long Bitcoin Cash against various tradable assets where the leverage could reach up to 10x.

Oracles.cash: Real-Time Price Feed for BCH Instruments

Oracles.cash – Is a simple and reliable way to reference prices and specifications involving Bitcoin Cash plus 8 quote assets that help the new generation of financial instruments wrapped around the Bitcoin Cash mainnet. It is possible, using Oracles.cash, to compare the Bitcoin Cash price with, e.g., US Dollar, Chinese Yuan, Indian Rupee [all fiat]; gold, silver [precious metals]; BTC, ETH, and DOGE [cryptocurrencies].

As Oracles.cash is software, it allows Bitcoin Cash price information to be used by a script engine. Each operator that provides Oracle price information provides the source from which it obtains it, as well as the metadata message noting the current price they are checking in real-time.

Electrum Cash: Full Node in the Browser

Electrum Cash – It is a decentralized tool that gives the user access to a full range of Bitcoin Cash network access directly from the browser.

Flipstarter: Crowdfunding Without Censorship

Flipstarter – Flipstarter is a decentralized crowdfunding tool built on top of the Bitcoin Cash blockchain network that has helped and continues to help people get funding for ventures that really matter using Bitcoin Cash. The platform has already funded over 10,000 BCH to projects that were based on the decentralized economy of Bitcoin Cash.

Flipstarter is a viable solution for the time we live in, where existing crowdfunding platforms globally tend to block or restrict access to funding for those looking for it, making Flipstarter paramount in accessing decentralized funding using Bitcoin Cash.

Protocol Contributions and What’s Coming

The General Protocols curriculum also includes participation in the movement that coordinated the last two years of the Bitcoin Cash network upgrade, where the team designed and popularized the Bitcoin Cash processing CHIP, stabilizing the protocol for users, merchants, and developers.

A product that is on the horizon, and a success already, is the BCHBULL, which is also brought by the General Protocols team and will allow users to long positions of Bitcoin Cash up to 10x against various assets that will be available for trading. The other product is the versatile Smart Contract Bitcoin Cash Wallet that will soon be launched, proving once again that General Protocols is built on top of Bitcoin Cash, betting on financial freedom never imagined.
