What Is Ethereum Classic?
Old code, raw nerves.
Ethereum Classic is the chain that refused to rewrite history. When Ethereum forked in 2016 to reverse the DAO hack, ETC kept the original ledger, the original proof-of-work engine and the maxim that code is law, and it has held that line ever since. The philosophy is immovable. On the CFGI Ethereum Classic fear and greed index, the crowd holding it is anything but.
The CFGI read: Ethereum Classic's deepest reading of the year, 20 out of 100 on 11 October 2025 with the price at $15.02, landed on the single worst day the crypto crowd had in this window: 93 of the 96 assets then scored closed in Fear or worse, 17 of them in Extreme Fear, the broadest Extreme Fear day of the year. ETC did not lead that panic, but it absorbed all of it. Across the full year the ledger reads 99 days of Fear against 26 of Greed, with 240 in Neutral and not one day at either extreme.
Ethereum Classic Fear and Greed Index History
Q3 2026 breakdown. The table below updates daily.
What distinguishes this crowd is the violence of its turns. On 25 August 2025 the score collapsed 32 points in a single day, from 73 to 41, cutting short the year's best stretch, a seven-day run of Greed or better from 8 to 14 August that peaked at 77 with the price at $23.68. On 7 November 2025 it swung 30 points the other way, from 38 to 68. Sentiment here does not drift. It lurches.
The price gave the crowd plenty to lurch about, falling 69.6% across the year from $23.16 to $7.05, with the top of $24.96 set on 22 August 2025 and the floor of $6.55 as recently as 24 July 2026. The grimmest sustained spell was nine days of Fear or worse from 30 January to 7 February 2026, part of the drawdown that dragged the overall market Fear and Greed Index to its own low that week. The window closes at 57, in Neutral, which for this crowd counts as a rest.
