The Coinbase listing will only be opened to those with premium membership and when trading starts, the price will most likely experience a more stable and permanent spike after the listing is complete and trading is enabled. Even if Ethereum Classic hasn’t crossed the weekly high at $17.23, it is still rather close to for the first time since July 30th. The price correction has already started so stay sharp for the next few trading sessions. It’s true that the Coinbase announcement about Ethereum Classic deposits helped push the price up but in a volatile industry such as this, it’s better to be safe and stay within your predetermined capital.
