Exodus, the blockchain asset wallet application has announced support now for Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and Ethereum Classic (ETC) to its family of assets. When Bitcoin Cash first was forked, the company along with many others said they would not support it.
However, some, included Exodus have since caved in due to user demand to support BCH, as users needed somewhere to put the coins if they decided to keep them.
