Ethereum Classic (ETC) rose 10.71% over the past 24 hours to trade at $7.44 on August 21, 2026, extending a broader rally that has gathered momentum over recent weeks.
The move pushed ETC's seven-day gain to 21.53%, reflecting sustained buying pressure across the short-term window. Over the past 30 days, the asset has advanced 6.89%, suggesting the more recent acceleration outpaces the longer-term trend.
At the current price, Ethereum Classic carries a market capitalization of $1.11 billion, placing it among mid-tier digital assets by that measure.
The 24-hour and weekly figures mark a notable pickup in price activity for ETC, though the 30-day comparison indicates the bulk of those gains arrived in a compressed period rather than building gradually over the full month.
