I don't know whether ETC is here to stay or it is a pump and dump. In any case congratulations to the traders making profits by riding the speculative wave.
For the people who are wondering how ETC "pump" is lasting this long, Simon de la Rouviere tweeted a great video which sums it up quite nicely.
There is a whole discussion about ETC ETC parity but many don't believe it is possible and are quick to disgard those threads as nonsense. I agree it is a long shot but hey I also didn't think Trump would be the republican nominee yet here we are...
The video also explains how that twist of fate happened.
