About ETC Price

Ethereum Classic (ETC) is a decentralized, open-source blockchain platform that runs smart contracts. The ETC price is determined by market supply and demand across numerous cryptocurrency exchanges worldwide.

Unlike many cryptocurrencies, Ethereum Classic has a fixed monetary policy with a capped supply of approximately 210.7 million ETC, following a deflationary emission schedule similar to Bitcoin. This predictable supply makes ETC attractive to investors seeking assets with transparent tokenomics.

The price of ETC is influenced by several factors including overall cryptocurrency market sentiment, network activity, mining hashrate, development progress, and broader macroeconomic conditions. Following Ethereum's transition to Proof of Stake in 2022, ETC became the largest Proof of Work smart contract platform, attracting miners and supporting its security model.
