Over the past 2 weeks, Ethereum Classic has been picking up speed as Ethereum is transitioning to Proof-of-Stake. As of now, it's ~65% up over the last week. Why? Current Proof-of-Stake miners are believing their new home will be ETH Classic, as there are no plans to transition to POS there. Also with an endorsement from Vitalik himself, price for the token has skyrocketed.
I understand that miners desperation as their way of life is coming to an end on Ethereum. However, not sure how much activity there is on Classic, and if there will be enough for miners to reap benefits. We shall see!
