#EthereumClassic at $7000 per ETC? Here's why...
- No move fast, break it, fork it, fix it
- Unique positioning: PoW + smart contract + fixed monetary policy niche
- Ethereum's migration to Proof-of-Stake: Where'd all the miners go?

Ten years ago this week, #EthereumClassic hard forked for the first time.
Not to undo a hack. To fix a bug.
ECIP-1015 stopped the 2016 Shanghai spam attacks, three months after ETC said no to forking over The DAO.
10 years and running.

This is what open source #blockchain infrastructure looks like.
Project Triforce is a grid of #EthereumClassic nodes run by @classix_dev, serving as public RPC and watching the network: blocks, reorgs, the mempool and every peer it can see.👀
Four clients. Three providers. Three regions.🌎

Plenty of people call #EthereumClassic “the old Ethereum" - a relic.
It’s really a computer no one owns:
→ Programs, data and a processor
→ Run by nodes all over the world
→ Powering dApps, smart contracts and is a store-of-value
No company to shut it down. No admin to change the rules.🍀

$ETC hashrate is on a run. 🔥
+10% in 24 hours
+19% in 1 week
+38% since the September low
Now at ~207 TH/s.
More hashrate = more secure.

ETC Community Call #62 🍀 Bunker Mode
We talked in-depth about the quantum and AI threat to ECDSA and where $ETC stands, what's planned for the next core-geth v1.12.24 release, a look back at our trip to #TOKEN2049 and a lot more.
Listen below. 🎧

Your weekend listen 🎧
"Code is law" gets quoted constantly. Rarely explained.
On ETC Community Call 16, Donald McIntyre traces it back to the founding documents and lays out the ten principles underneath it.

ETC daily transactions, August vs. October
Early Aug: ~7–8K on a typical day📉
Mid-Oct: ~10–11K, with a spike past 13K🔥
~40% more activity in under three months.📈
I ran it myself on the $ETC dataset in Google BigQuery.🧑🏻💻
Don’t trust, verify. Query in the replies 👇

$ETC hashrate in early September: ~144 TH/s 📉
Today: ~187 TH/s 🔥
More machines, more energy, and more real-world cost standing securing every transaction.⚡️
Security isn’t a promise. It’s a number, and it’s going up. 📈

The 2016 fork split the chain. It didn’t split the research.
ETC upgrades keep bringing in Ethereum EIPs: Byzantium with Atlantis, Istanbul with Phoenix, most recently Shanghai with Spiral.
#Ethereum’s research makes $ETC better, and every EIP that crosses over gets a second life on proof of work.
We’d like more ideas to cross the fork in both directions.

Two kinds of programmable money are coming:
One is programmed by a central bank.
One is programmed by you.
CBDCs can be frozen, limited, or set to expire.
Ethereum Classic runs on code no one can change for you.
Choose wisely.

Some chains run on social consensus:
if enough people agree, the rules change.
#EthereumClassic runs on code is law:
the rules are the rules.
One is flexible.
The other is reliable.
When it’s your money, which do you want?

Per the ETC Cooperative: last year, @crm_hq helped @coinbase with MiCAR white paper compliance. That work made $ETC a compliant, tradable asset on European exchanges.

#EthereumClassic is the largest proof-of-work blockchain that runs native L1 smart contracts.
Sounds technical. Here’s what it actually means for you:
If you hold crypto:
Your coins live on a chain secured by real-world energy and hardware, not by a pool of stakers who can be pressured, regulated, or captured.
Fixed supply. No surprise monetary policy changes. No committee deciding your money is worth less this year.
Hard money, like #Bitcoin. But it does more.
If you build:
On Bitcoin, the most you can really do on-chain is move coins from A to B. Smart contracts get bolted on through sidechains and bridges, which are exactly the weak points that get exploited.
On $ETC, your app runs inside proof-of-work security.
Not on a sidechain. Not behind a bridge. Inside.
Same EVM tools you already know. Stronger foundation underneath.
If you just don’t want to get locked in:
A lot of networks are easy to join today and easy to control tomorrow. The more stake concentrates, the fewer doors need knocking on.
Proof-of-work doesn’t have a front door to knock on.
Your transactions go through because miners compete to include them. Nobody needs to approve them.
So why isn’t everyone talking about this?
Because markets price narratives first and fundamentals later. Right now the loudest narratives have the biggest marketing budgets.
Fundamentals don’t need a budget. They just need time.
When it matters who can censor you, who can freeze you, and who can change the rules on you, people go looking for the chain where the answer is “no one.”
Proof-of-work + fixed supply + native smart contracts.
Programmable Digital Gold.

Most chains compete on speed.
Some compete on fees.
A few compete on features.
#EthereumClassic competes on one thing:
It can't stop. Won't stop.
No pauses. No rollbacks. No off switch.
