As an ETH hodler i find myself surprised and curious about the fact that ETC (ethereum classic) is still hanging around..

It's my understanding that ETC is the original ethereum, and after it was exposed and hacked due all its vulnerabilities, people moved on and created ETH, which is a safer version, and seems to have succeeded.

So, basically, ETC is full of scammers. But it STILL has a market cap of $2 billion and is a top 20 coin in terms of market cap.

How do you explain ETC still remaining a top 20 coin after it was exposed/destroyed by hackers/scammers ?

Secondly, is there any logic to buying some of it as a hedge to ETH?
I've seen Qtum and Stellar mentioned as ETH hedges, but curious if anyone here owns ETC and why.
