Vitalik Buterin on Ethereum Classic Creator of Ethereum

I'm fine with Ethereum Classic existing. I'm just saying that I'm not interested in putting my own effort toward it.

We demonstrated how you can profitably attack a $2 billion cryptocurrency network like Ethereum Classic with as little as $1.5 million, and how you can "bankrupt it" with $55 million, netting +$1B in profit.

Jameson Lopp on Ethereum Classic Infrastructure Engineer at Casa

Ethereum Classic has <1% of Ethereum Project's hashing power, and, while there are plenty of sellers, no one's buying.

Antibailout Ethereum Classic gets its first exchange support: https://np.reddit.com/r/EthereumClassic/comments/4t30qf/bitsquare_will_add_ethc_trading_immediately/ …

Hopefully, other exchanges do the ethical thing, too.

Spencer Noon on Ethereum Classic Investor at DTC

Crypto is down overall, but I'm getting really bullish on Ethereum Classic. Why?

* Scripting language of ETH
* Economics like BTC

And the big one for ETC:

* Institutional investors evaluating "fundamentals" will love how it leverages the best features from the top two coins.

Ethereum Classic should pivot their engineering effort towards zk-SNARKs and everything that screams privacy and immutability. Ramping up innovations and giving projects a reason to build with a “Classic first” approach will have long-term impact.

Alex Van De Sande on Ethereum Classic UX Designer at the Ethereum Foundation

Ethereum Classic is what happens when original developers and a whole community decide to leave an old chain to die on the side of the road. Instead, it survived and came back with a vengeance. It’s inspiring, really.
