How to mine ETC, https://f2pool.io/mining/guides/how-to-mine-ethereum-classic/
Don't get two steps behind

barely no coin survives in the bearish trend
but, lucky for the miners, as long as the profit covers the cost, you just keep on mining,selling and withdrawing the money
if someone is searching for mining pools, try f2pool

Of course, it's reasonable, miners help to secure the network, no one is willing to do that without profit.
And for those miners who did know, f2pool is offering ZERO fees for Ukrainian miners till the end of the year 2022! Less cost=more profit.
All coins listed on f2pool,mainstream and altcoins, ETC,BTC,ETH...apply it for yourselves.

ETC block reward is about to decrease in 12days, check out the link for the lateset info.BTW, f2pool is one of the world's leading mining pool which supported ETC mining long time ago. More and more miners are turning to ETC,because miners do not have many options after ETH2.0.
