• “ETC price rose quickly, but looking at fundamental metrics, nothing has changed about this chain. Volumes and users have been largely unchanged for years. Applications are non-existent,” wrote Dunleavy, senior research analyst at crypto data firm Messari, in a raportează.

• Ethereum Classic’s price climbed from around US$15 in mid-July to a high of US$44.46 at the end of the month. It currently sits at US$36.61 at the time of publication, according to CoinGecko.

• On July 14, Ethereum developer Tim Beiko a anunțat the tentative target date for “The Merge” as Sept. 19.

• Ethereum’s transition to PoS has forced miners to migrate to other chains, with many moving to mining ETC. 

• Ethereum was hacked in 2016, which resulted in a hard fork that became the current Ethereum blockchain, while the hacked chain was rebranded to Ethereum Classic.
