How to Buy BCH2
BCH2 (Bitcoin Cash II) is available on centralized exchanges and — because it's a fair-launch SHA-256 proof-of-work coin — you can simply mine it. Here are the two ways to get BCH2, step by step.
1. Buy on an Exchange
NonKYC BCH2/USDT · BCH2/USDC · no KYC
NonKYC has listed the BCH2/USDT pair since March 2026 and added a BCH2/USDC pair in June 2026. Neither requires identity verification for standard trading.
- Create an account at NonKYC (email only).
- Deposit USDT or USDC (or another asset and convert).
- Buy BCH2 on the BCH2/USDT or BCH2/USDC market.
- Withdraw to your own wallet (see self-custody below). Note: BCH2 deposits to NonKYC require 35 confirmations (~6 hours).
Buy BCH2 on Biconomy BCH2/USDT · spot
Biconomy.com opened the BCH2/USDT spot market on 15 September 2026 at 12:00 UTC. It is a centralized exchange, so you trade from an account balance and move the coins to your own wallet afterwards.
- Create an account at Biconomy.com.
- Deposit USDT (or another asset and convert).
- Buy BCH2 on the BCH2/USDT market.
- Withdraw to your own wallet (see self-custody below).
NestEx BCH2/USDT
BCH2 also trades on NestEx. You can watch the markets side by side — live order books, charts, and volume — on our exchange dashboard.
2. Mine It
SHA-256 mining no premine · 100% to miners
BCH2 uses the same SHA-256 proof-of-work as Bitcoin, so any Bitcoin ASIC (Antminer, Whatsminer, etc.) can mine it. Every new coin goes to miners — there is no premine and no dev fee. Point your miner at a BCH2 pool and earn block rewards of 50 BCH2 directly.
Already held BC2 (BitcoinII)? You don't need to buy anything — BCH2 was distributed 1:1 to every BC2 holder at fork block 53,200. Your existing keys control the same balance on the BCH2 chain. See the claim guide.
After You Buy: Hold Your Own Keys
Exchanges are for trading, not storage. Move your BCH2 to a wallet you control: the non-custodial web wallet, the Android wallet or full-node Qt desktop wallet. Your seed phrase is the only thing that controls your coins — write it down offline and never share it.
