ETC was just listed and trading on coinbase. Comparing with NEO, which one is better for holding?
I believe that for the diversification of funds it is better to invest in both coins on a long-term or short-term basis. Now the market is at the stage of correction but soon it will start to grow.
Even if you want to diversify, you also have to consider the reason why you are investing in any of the coins. I still feel unless ETC developers come up with something substantial to make the ETC become useful, it will at the end just become a normal coin in the space with no serious usage.
For now, it is still living under the shadow of ETH with just very few community losing hope already anyway and for the fact that so many other smart contract platforms like NEO and the likes are coming up with a lot of ideas to make the smart contract platform competitive, ETC may have a hard chance unless it also does not remain stagnant in development.
