I still have Bitcoin Cash on Nitrogen Sports that I remembered about. But I don't see any way to cash it out yet? I remember seeing Nitrogen Sports say they would facilitate BCash cashouts once they saw it stabilize and now it has been over $200 for a while now. What's the process for cashing my BCash out from Nitrogen? Thanks

How do you have bitcoin cash there? They have never accepted it.Comment -
That was another issue nitrogen betrayed its players on. They made an absolute killing on it, and deflected for months and months about potentially crediting the players until the noise died down and no one mentions it anymore.Comment -
this was official statement
To our current and future players,
Many of you are aware that the Bitcoin network forked on August 1st, 2017. As a result, a new coin was created which became known as ‘Bitcoin Cash’, or BCH for short. To prepare for the fork, Nitrogen Sports temporarily paused all withdrawals and deposits for a time before and after the fork.
Since August 1st, some players have asked specific questions regarding Nitrogen’s plans for BCH. This statement is meant to help clarify where Nitrogen stands on the issue and what our players can expect in the months ahead.
First, Nitrogen Sports does not immediately intend to support Bitcoin Cash. The decision was made after careful consideration about the environment in which the fork happened, and the less-than-clear path to Bitcoin-scale adoption that BCH faces in the months ahead. Our position on Bitcoin Cash also means that Nitrogen will not immediately optimize, transfer or benefit from any BCH that became theoretically available to account balances at the time of the fork.
That being said, Nitrogen took the initiative to log a static record of each and every account balance after deposits and withdraws were paused on August 1st. This information is important in the event that Nitrogen integrates BCH. We want our players to know that when Nitrogen decides to integrate Bitcoin Cash, balances at the time of the fork will be honored in full. We are currently evaluating the timeline for integration.
We are able to stand by our statement because of the measures we took before and during the fork to inform and protect our players.
Before the fork, we provided sufficient notice that withdrawals would be paused. This should have given each player the appropriate time to move their funds off-platform and into whichever storage solution they deemed appropriate. And as mentioned, during the fork, Nitrogen logged a static record of all balances, taking extra care to plan for any eventuality.
Forks happen from time-to-time on the Bitcoin network. Nitrogen’s specific concern will always focus on account security first, before hype and speculation surrounding newly introduced features or ‘alt-coins’. We feel this is the best way to protect our players’ best interests.
Thank you for your patience regarding this matter.

A bullshit statement.
They benefited off of players balances, regardless if they ever implement BCH on their site as a deposit option.Comment -
Nitrogen did make players aware of their intentions before the fork so there was time to move funds for the snapshot. Even the fiat books keep funds in bitcoin. We aren't sure what books keep in BTC and what they keep in fiat. Obviously Nitrogen made money on the fork but it's our fault if we didn't move the BTC to a wallet or exchange that paid BCH.Comment -
Nitrogen never promised to pay out BCH after the fork, but they did make last-minute withdrawls a pain in the ass.Comment -
Yeah. They gave fair warning weeks in advance. I pulled everything out as soon as my Bones-Cormier hit.Comment
