Ethereum Classic Rallies 100% In Ten Days, Beats ETH

July 23, 2022 - Around 2 mins mins to read
Ethereum Classic (ETC) has outperformed its arch-rival Ether (ETH) during the current crypto market rally, with the ETC/ETH pair at a 10-month high. Ethereum’s transition to proof-of-stake could be a boon to the price of Ethereum Classic.

Dubbed “The Merge,” the long-awaited technical update will move Ethereum from proof-of-work (PoW) to proof-of-stake (PoS).

Ethereum’s rally has been among the strongest among the top cryptocurrencies, mainly due to the excitement surrounding its potential September network upgrade.

Therefore, the move to PoS could force existing Ethereum miners to switch to the ETC chain.

It should come as no surprise that Ethereum Classic is the closest Ethereum in terms of network design and compatibility, as Ethereum Classic is the successor chain that forked from Ethereum after a controversial hard fork in July 2016.

As a result, speculators predict that Ethereum Classic will become the first choice for miners to switch from Ethereum, which could be one of the main reasons for the recent increase in ETC price.
