A Bitcoin-supporting community movement has evidently galvanized, alleging that Bitcoin.com is misleading buyers into purchasing Bitcoin Cash instead of Bitcoin, with outraged users launching a website bitcoincomlawsuit.

One of the supports of the community-led movement posted an explanation of the claim on Twitter today, April 28:.If you've lost bitcoin because of misleading language, ticker symbols, graphics, or photos on any Roger Ver website or wallet please submit your report to: https://t.

As the aggrieved users point out, Bitcoin.com, which provides a BTC and BCH-supporting wallet, shows buyers both cryptocurrencies' logos in the same color, as well as unusually referring to Bitcoin as 'Bitcoin Core', the name of its software client, rather than the more widely recognizable 'Bitcoin'.

Many indignant users have gone so far as to suggest these practices amount to "Fraud".
