The market is blooming ??

The broader crypto market is up by 2.99% this morning, with top cryptos ETH and BNB holding onto their gains of 1.41% and 0.91%, respectively. JasmyCoin (JASMY) is up by 11.59% today, spurred by a surge in trading volumes. DOGE continues to rally, with a 9.80% uptick in the past 24 hours.


ETC surges?? as ETH merges????

We’re just a month away from what might go down as the greatest event in history — The ‘Merge.’?And as ‘chote bhai’?? ♂?a.k.a Ethereum shifts gears from POW to POS, ‘bade bhai’ ??a.k.a Ethereum Classic is also stealing some thunder in the crypto-verse.

Let’s get some context:?

  • ETC is trading currently at ?3,515, i.e., over 130% higher than its value last month.?
  • Also, there has been a sudden surge in large ETC wallet holders by 40% in the past month.?
  • ETH merge is scheduled to happen on Sep 15, 2022.?


Why is ETC gaining while ETH prepares for the Merge?

Post merge, our ‘chote bhai’ Ethereum will no longer be able to continue rewarding miners. So, they might be on the lookout for a new network to support their livelihood.

????????Enter ‘bade bhai’ Ethereum Classic. ??

Ethereum Classic is fully documented and operationally ready to absorb the hash rate currently mining Ethereum. Whether the ETHW fork (Ethereum Proof-of-work Fork Proposal) succeeds, ETC will continue to exist. So, miners have already started migrating to the ETC network ahead of the merge.?

Meanwhile, our man Vitalik is confident that any Ethereum miner migration won’t slow the? merge. The merge is sooo on, bruh ??!?
