is ETC A Better coin to invest in than ETH ?

You need to be more specific. Better than what coin?

It's a good coin itself, but there are better alternatives for sure.

Ethereum is an extremely good and powerful coin which is waiting for its Proof of stake implementation. That means that after some time eth won't be a mineable coin, people will store their eth and get rewards for holding a certain stake. Etc is what used to be an original coin but faced a hard fork and thus became the rejected chain of blocks (eth became the true one). Now etc is still recovering from what happened a couple of years ago. Some people believe etc is a potentially good investment, for, when miners won't have an ability to mine eth they may switch to ethereum classic.
I think that eth is still better but now is not the time to invest in it. It's too late.

If we look into the market cap, ETH have much more volume than ETC and have a big difference in market growth every 24 hours.
So for me its better to invest into ETH than ETC and remember ETC is a hard fork of ETH.

Long term for sure

i think yes, once the ETH original fork will go pure pos, investors will start pump the other alternative dagger and ETC is the strongest one among these coins, it's a good opportunity now to invest a small capital into this coin

Fundamentally ETC is a worse version of ETH, it won't survive once the altcoin market goes into a bear mode.

Well yeah, bro and etherum is also a potential in revtech and it can impact some industries economically. Also there development team is good and they have blos on github i think and reddit. It is also second in the market right after btc. It is also popular in terms of volume and buzz. I also saw a post on fb that an investors gained profit just by doing nothing in 170 days to wait for its etheruem no go high.

The answer is no, etc is the part of ETH and there are more people know ETH rather than etc, from the price etc still lose a lot and more investors are attracted to ETH, etc shown a good sign few weeks ago but now it is stuck, ETH got a better future than etc so I will choose ETH to invest rather than etc

ETH is better than ETC. ETC just a forked coin. With the latest development of ethereum. Seems ETC to be the un-potential coin in the future. But what makes you think if ETC is a good coin? I don't see any reason for that.
With a lack of development and ETH is a better choice for you. Too many the big companies have joined on ethereum platform and it gives a good clue for us about the future of ethereum.

Of course yes, ETC is better than ETH because ETC is original of ethereum blockchain,
 it is good for long term investments into ETC but for short (trading)
 i choose ethereum ETH because the movement of price is good,
so depend on you do you will make investments for long or short.

Okay, it is an original coin. And why does it make it better? It experienced a total fiasco whereas hopefully eth will be strong and supported enough and won't end up the same. Like others said, etc is a technically worse version than ethereum. ETC might survive or might die. ETH might fall down and rise even more powerful. The price dynamics are not great enough for it to be a short-term investment. And the price is too big to play with it.

So following your logic the best coin to invest is Bitcoin, because it has the highest market capitalization.

It is the other way around, it is ETH which is hard fork of original Ethereum, hence the name - ETC, Ethereum Classic.
Have you ever wondered why ETH is worth near $100 and ETC is stuck under $10 despite being original and better coin?
ETH is the new strain and version backed by Ethereum Foundation and developed by Vitalik - it is considered to be superior version.

ETC is better than ETH because the prices are still very low. Try to hold it for 1 more year and you will be surprised by its marvelous technologies inside. I am planning to buy more ETC in the future when I have enough money

I guess gonna go in eth i guess eth is more like a bitcoin and eth have a great potential in many ways in centralization so i can see eth have a potential to go up like bitcoin etc or maybe eth can suprass bitcoin also or even a half of price is still a good sign of investments.

Not only that, ETC is also supported by Barry Silbert one of the known big players in the cryptospace. Another big player who is supporting it is Chandler Guo who runs one of the largest bitcoin mining farms.

Having both of them makes you feel safe in investing in Ethereum classic.

Troll much? You have it completely ass backwards. ETC has the superior fundamentals. Decentralized, deflationary, and immutable. All things with ETH lacks. Nice troll attempt. ETC is vastly superior and the much better long term investment. ETH is way overvalued and still in a bubble, and is worthless as far as a blockchain goes.

ETH and ETC are similar coins, if one rises, other rises too

ETC has smaller marketcap, so in theory easier to be pumped

I think interms of growth potential ETC is a better potential. For me the difference between both teams is money, ETH foundation has huge money to spread around and are even holding alot of ETC tokens unlike ETC foundation that need to rely on the community support for funding

Don't compare with other coins each one has his own identity because in cryptocurrency we don't know when the price of the coin will increase that's why we have to analyze. Yes, ETC is a good coin for investment, don't look for the short term because you will make a little profit. ETC is a long term investment you will make a good amount of money.

ETC is the ORIGINAL one

ETC is always a good one for investment because it will give good returns in long term. Many people have different speculation on thoughts on ETC but it will overcome to make this coin more stable in the market. ETC is a good potential market so don't look for short-term returns.

My opinion ETH better than ETC .

ETC may be best coin other than bitcoin. Definitety better than ETH, the mutable centralized scam chain.

Logic and fundamentals don't back this up.

for a long term investment, yes, etc is very very good. As you can see, the etc marketcap is only $1 million and because of that fact, it can easily rise upto x20. The technologies behind etc is a potential for us to develop the whole currency network andd the blockchain system

Eth is good for invest. you tell invest for long time. may be 2 month ago a saw eth price 4$ but now 25 up. day by day increase. so i suggest for eth.

yes agree with you, i think those people who will invest in Ethereum right now, they can really get a good profit, but you have to invest your assets in Ethereum for long term. short term investment may not be so much profitable.

Even if technically ETC is not exactly better, soon enough this ETH pump will grind to a hold. It's already way too expensive and most likely won't make it to $200. Once it stops people will look for new ways to multiply their investment and ETC is a prime possibility for that. Don't forget that according to most people the best coin is not the one with the biggest use, but the one that can make you rich.

Buy etc, just buy and hold. I don't even see etc as an altcoin. I think etc is the most reliable coin after bitcoin.

Well look ETC is increasing right now, price of ETC more than $10 i choose ETC because it has limite amount of coin,  
do you know how much amount of ethereum?  :D that is just inflation of coin,
ok let wait until ethereum goes to PoS, all of us will know what's happening between ETC and ETH.
JuicyG: "We will see a big exodus of projects moving from ETH to ETC.”

that's true. ETC might be a good investment recently, but for the long-term it's not a good choice.

When ETC announces their new monetary policy it's going to go mainstream and take over ETH.

When you start holding your eth while ago maybe you already made some profit when you decided to sell your ethereum like mine I sold out all my ethereum and I only get eth now from investment.

Since it's not going to switch to PoS, ETC can receive massive support from miners. The problem is that ETC has the same fundamental issues that ETH has, and I can not see it scaling with the tech they have right now. In the long run I'd say ETC has better chances than Ethereum has anyway.

Clearly, Etc is the best one after bitcoin

It looks like ETC had a very good rally when everyone was calling them dead a few months ago and now even a dead coin has risen when all the alt coins made a rally,it is really interesting to see what is the best price i can reach and i would like to see whether they can retain the price for a long time.Investing at this price is not advisable.
