Bitcoin Cash (BCH) vs Figure Heloc (FIGR_HELOC)

Bitcoin Cash is a Proof of Work (PoW) blockchain that was born on August 1, 2017, following a hard fork from Bitcoin due to a disagreement within the Bitcoin community. While the majority of the community chose to adopt the SegWit proposal, a dissenting faction decided to split the blockchain (hard fork) and implement their own improvement, namely an increase in block size from 1 MB to 8 MB, following the original vision of Satoshi Nakamoto.

This project is building the foundational protocol layer for institutional debt markets on blockchain. Powered by Provenance Blockchain, Figure Connect and Figure Markets are transforming the way loan assets are originated, traded, and settled. Figure Connect functions as a primary market for credit—standardizing and tokenizing debt assets such as HELOCs and private credit into composable on-chain formats. Figure Markets acts as a secondary trading venue, enabling 24/7 settlement of these digital loan assets through decentralized custody, with support for both crypto and fiat on/off ramps. Together, they offer an integrated protocol for real-world asset finance, with deep roots in the lending ecosystem.
