<p>Yes. Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash share a history, but only up to the fork.</p>
<p>Possibly you might be able to make yourself a <code>bootstrap.dat</code> up to the fork for Bitcoin Cash to load, depending on exactly what software you are running for each.

# Bitcoin & Bitcoin-cash in Ubuntu same server : Use same Block Data for both

(Asked by: username_0 on 2018-03-21)

**Configured Bitcoin server/rpc working good in Digital Ocean Ubuntu VPS.**
I also **want to set Bitcoin-Cash server parallel** in same server.

So **do I require to download all blocks of bitcoin-cash** node? because I already downloaded Bitcoin core blocks and BCC/BCC is forked from it. Your help could save my much BCC block sync time.

Yes. Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash share a history, but only up to the fork.

Possibly you might be able to make yourself a `bootstrap.dat` up to the fork for Bitcoin Cash to load, depending on exactly what software you are running for each. There are accurate and working instructions for creating `bootstrap.dat` [linked in another recent question here](https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/a/42916/75001).
