Returns: Bitcoin Cash vs Avalanche

Over the last 12 months BCH returned -44.97% and AVAX -66.26%. Over just the last month the picture is reversed: BCH +26.83%, AVAX +44.30%. Short periods can tell a very different story from long ones, which is why picking a coin from last month's chart rarely works.

Risk: which one is the wilder ride?

Avalanche moves about ±2.1% on a typical day against ±1.7% for Bitcoin Cash. In the past year BCH fell as much as 71% from a peak and AVAX 81%. Bigger swings mean bigger possible gains and bigger possible losses, size your position so a fall like that wouldn't force you to sell.

Do they move together?

The correlation of their daily moves over the past year is 0.53 (1 = always together, 0 = unrelated): they often move in the same direction, but not always. That makes holding both a little less risky than holding either alone.

Size and supply

Bitcoin Cash is the bigger network, with a market cap about 1.3× that of Avalanche. A lower price per coin doesn't make a coin “cheaper”: what matters is market cap, and how many new coins will still be created (BCH: capped at 21.00M; AVAX: capped at 720.00M).

Should I buy Bitcoin Cash or Avalanche?

We don't give buy or sell advice. The data shows how each has behaved, not what happens next. Many investors hold more than one coin rather than choosing; with a correlation of 0.53, they often move in the same direction, but not always, so holding both spreads less risk than it might seem.

Historical data for education only, past returns do not predict future ones, and nothing here is a recommendation to buy or sell. Figures use daily USD closes converted at today's ₹95.98/$ and exclude fees and tax. Crypto is unregulated and highly risky, and there may be no regulatory recourse for any loss.
