It is rather amazing that the ETH/ETC price stays up. Because its main value proposition, complex smart contracts, has been demonstrated not to be reliable. So one wonders what people speculating on ETH/ETC are still hoping for.
The volume is higher on the ETC actually. Maybe people think it is the pump and dump coin, so they trade it now.
The ETC trade volume is quite high. That maybe because most of the miners will sell the ETC they mine instantly.
