Attack of the Bitcoin Clones

I’ve been trying really hard to render my Star Wars cartoons in the proper sequence (the first one was a reference to a scene in Episode III, and I’ve been slowly working my way up to Episode VI), but this particular gag was just too good to pass up.

Over the past week, a “clone” of Bitcoin called Bitcoin Cash was launched out of China, and at the time of writing, it’s valued at about $500. Whether this new variant will catch on is uncertain, but based on the market activity, it’s definitely not going to disappear anytime soon.
