Coinbase Inc., one of the most popular U.S. cryptocurrency exchanges, is adding bitcoin cash to its offerings, giving momentum to a rival to the most popular digital unit.


The move didn’t occur without a hitch, however. The San Francisco-based exchange said it’s investigating a price increase in bitcoin cash ahead of the announcement. And while Coinbase briefly enabled orders to be posted in U.S. dollars on its platform for more sophisticated traders, it suspended it after two minutes due to “significant volatility,” the company said in a blog post. Coinbase plans to reopen the order books Dec. 20 at 9 a.m. Pacific Time.

"We have been monitoring the bitcoin cash network over the last few months and have decided to enable full support including the ability to buy, sell, send and receive," Coinbase said in its announcement via a blog post. "Factors we considered include developer and community support, security, stability, market price and trading volume."

Bitcoin cash emerged earlier this year amid a split between factions in the cryptocurrency space over proposed software upgrades to the blockchain technology underpinning bitcoin. Coinbase, which at one point this month was the top free application in Apple Inc.’s App Store download ranking, already offered ethereum and litecoin in addition to bitcoin.

“Bitcoin cash is a very legitimate contender,” said Bobby Lee, chief executive officer of BTC China Co. “Bitcoin has faced a lot of scaling issues with the block sizes and so on, so I think bitcoin cash has solved a lot of these issues.”

Bitcoin cash surged on the news, up 50 percent over the past 24 hours, to $3,477.45 as of 3:47 p.m. Hong Kong time, according to data compiled from coinmarketcap.com.
