I do not believe that Ethereum Classic should have a subtitle at all. It is not a fork, but rather the true Ethereum. It is the supporters of the Whale Bailout Fork that should change their ticker. They can change it to ETF (Ethereum Fork) or ETW (Ethereum Whale) but they should not be allowed to keep the original ETH name.

In fact, I call upon Poloniex, Bittrex, Kraken, Coinbase, and all exchange owners to support this social movement. Forcefully change the Ethereum ticker to [ETF] for the good of crypto. Let their network have their valid supporters, and let them trade as they please, but restore the blockchain known as [ETC] to their rightful ticker.... [ETH].

Do it for all of crypto, and support the immutability of code and blockchains (even if that code is ultimately flawed).

Lol, this was one of the first things that came to mind when I heard the continuing news on all this. I had tuned out honestly, after ETH failed to react as I predicted post fork. But the non forked chain is ETH in my opinion, that was the original ledger, and despite a fork, will always be. I think everyone else is slowly starting to feel a similar way.

Looks like we found one of the people who been buying Ethereum classic. Cheesy

There's always some idiots. Cheesy

Have you seen the price?

Today is crypto independence day to celebrate money that cannot be stolen from me.

Don't worry one way or another it will be stolen from you as ETC is an insecure chain of which the DAO attacker has 3.6 million ETC getting ready to dump. But yeah stick to your idiotic self righteous immutability. This is 2016 not 2009!!

When can the DAO hacker have the power to move around his coins? Maybe we should sell before then.

That is another way of looking at it. It will really depend on the point of view of the person on what is the original and what is the fork. I can see this will be a debate for a long time as long as the original Ethereum classic chain still exists.

No it is absolutely clear imo what is what.
When after a fork the original chain survives, it is still the original one.It doesn't matter how many users the forked chain has, how high it's hashrate and marketcap is or how many nodes it has.
As long as the old chain is active it stays as the original one and the forked version is just another altcoin.
Therefore I totally agree with OP.

The Ethereum Foundation guaranteed to develop the unstoplable chain. Will they scam?

Shall we hereby declare 7/25 Ethereum Independence day!?

I agree, If they're gonna add the old fork to exchanges then it needs to remain ETH.

I do not believe that Ethereum Classic should have that subtitle at all. It is not a fork or a flavor, but rather the true implementation - Ethereum Core. Meanwhile, I've come to realize since initially making this topic, the 'ETH' advocates don't need to change their ticker at all - 'ETH' is already a great ticker to denominate "Ethereum Hardfork". This fork may not have as much inherent value due to being mutable at the whims of a few central controllers, but it has a bright future as a testnet for the true Ethereum.

Let the test network have their valid supporters who for some reason value testnet tokens, and let them trade as they please, but there is something important we all need to realize. The human intervention on behalf of ETH whales has showed that on that their code has no consequences. Code must have consequences or you might as well be trading cells on a password-protected spreadsheet.

Support the immutability of code and blockchains (even if that code is ultimately flawed). Support Ethereum 'Classic', as that is the true world computer.
