Bitcoin Cash price analysis: BCH/USD at $670, Twitter closed BCH-promoting account

  • Bitcoin cash recovered from critical support at $600.00.
  • BCH community is divided by Twitter's decision.

Bitcoin Cash is up over 11% from Friday's low. The coin touched ultimate support $600.00 before the recovery mood set in. There are no clear BCH-specific triggers that might have caused the upside, but there are some reasons for extended sell-off once the correction is over.

Twitter blocked BCH-promoting @Bitcoin account on Friday, April 8, possibly due to a large number of complaints. This event triggered a heated discussion both on Twitter and on Reddit threads. While Bitcoin supporters rejoice, BCH proponents are infuriated.

"The @Bitcoin account has been suspended (again) by @TwitterSupport only because Core trolls constantly submit fake reports about it. @Jack why do you guys keep letting this happen? Instead of suspending all the fake scammer accounts you suspend the real ones," - David Shares, researcher and writer at Bitcoin.com said in his Twitter post.

The case was escalated to Jack Dorsey with the request to restore the account and allow scaling debates.
