Ethereum Classic (ETC) rose 2.58% on August 25, 2026, bringing its price to $7.94. The gain extended a strong stretch of performance for the cryptocurrency, which has climbed 31.02% over the past seven days.
The month-long picture also reflects positive momentum, with ETC up 14.24% over the past 30 days. The asset's market capitalization stood at $1.25 billion as of the reporting period.
The latest session added to what has been a notable run for the original Ethereum chain, which has historically attracted attention during broader crypto market upswings. The one-day gain, while modest compared to the weekly figure, suggests the rally has maintained some staying power heading into late August 2026.
