Coinbase adds Ethereum Classic
Looks like the rumors were true and coinbase will be adding Ethereum classic. This seems like a quick logical next step as it will be a easy integration.

Damn are they going to be adding litecoin cash or Bitcoin gold next? They're adding alot of fork coins lately.
Sorry my friend Ethereum is the actual fork.
Ethereum Classic actually holds the original code.
And bitcoin cash/bcash/bitcash can say they are the original code bc they follow "Satoshi's True Vision"aka an old scaling plan that Satoshi mainly only knew back then.
But you know what I mean. Most of the eth community followed Eth hence why it got the eth name hence why the original coin while the minority became Ethereum Classic
But who forked from who?
Eth supporter can say that Ethereum Classic forked bc they did not want to follow consensus. Ethereum Classic can say they are the original bc they keep mostly everything the same prior to the fork. I think my definition of a fork is when a minority group wants a new coin. I honestly support Ethereum Classic more bc if Ethereum can fork once to reverse $ why won't it do it in the future?
Consensus to cover the ass of rich friends. Not the core values I would want to follow.
+1; the only fork I somewhat respected was Ethereum classic bc their ideals are the best. Bitcoin cash bc while I really dislike them and the leaders suck.. they have a huge community and an totally acceptable but not a good scaling plan
Bcash has the right idea.
If you hold ETC sell soon and buy back once it drops, easy money. Do not be emotional about it
Agreed.
This means we might see some little upward price movement for Ethereum classic this week because more people will buy into it in anticipation of future growth
If the price increase is due to anticipation then it will surely fall when after it list.
Ethereum classic takes about 13 thousand dollars a hour to perform a 51% attack and coinbase wants to add that?
yep
Am I wrong in thinking that this is a bad idea? wouldn’t this cause double spend on coinbase?
You can double spend in Bitcoin cash that not stopping coinbase.
In reality they probably will inc the amounts on confirmation to make up for the inc vulnerabilities in Ethereum classic
Hmm. I get that it is technically an easy add but is the demand really there for Eth Classic?
Not really but with such low volume overall in the space they need to add more options.
Seriously? What a odd coin to add lol
And everyone thought they were going to add an erc20 tokens instead
That's cool, but I think they should get on and sort out their GBP withdraw system. Ok, us Brits might not be a massive crowd, but that doesn't mean we should have to struggle to withdraw funds. At the moment we have to withdraw euros and convert them to GBP... It's rediculous!
