Ethereum Classic Historical Data Price Chart
Whether you are rebalancing, taking profit or moving into a new asset, swapping Ethereum (ETH) to Ethereum Classic (ETC) on SecureShift takes just a few clicks. There is no sign-up and no identity verification — you send ETH from your own wallet and receive ETC in yours, at a real-time market rate.
Traders swap ETH to ETC to rebalance a portfolio, follow momentum, or simply because they need ETC for using its native blockchain, staking and paying network fees. Ethereum and Ethereum Classic run on completely separate blockchains, so a direct ETH to ETC swap on SecureShift saves you the deposit, trade and withdrawal steps of a centralised exchange — and the KYC that usually comes with it.
How to Swap ETH to ETC on SecureShift
- Choose the pair. Select ETH in the “You send” field and ETC in the “You get” field, then enter the amount of ETH you want to swap. The estimated ETC payout updates in real time.
- Pick a rate type. A floating rate follows the market and is usually slightly better; a fixed rate locks your ETC amount for the duration of the swap so price swings cannot affect it.
- Enter your Ethereum Classic address. Paste the Ethereum Classic network address (a native ETC address) where you want to receive ETC. Optionally add a refund address for ETH.
- Send your ETH. SecureShift generates a one-time Ethereum deposit address. Send the exact amount from your wallet.
- Receive ETC. After around 12–20 block confirmations, the swap is executed and ETC is sent to your wallet. Track every step on the order page and in a block explorer.
What Is Ethereum (ETH)?
Ethereum is the leading smart-contract platform and the home of DeFi, NFTs and most stablecoins. ETH is used to pay gas for every transaction on the network, and since the move to Proof of Stake it can also be staked for yield — which makes it both a utility asset and a core investment holding.
What Is Ethereum Classic (ETC)?
Ethereum Classic (ETC) is the original Ethereum chain that kept running unchanged after the 2016 DAO fork, secured by Proof of Work and committed to the “code is law” principle. SecureShift supports ETC on its native Ethereum Classic network, so you send and receive it with a regular ETC wallet address.
ETH vs ETC: Key Differences
| ETH | ETC | |

| Network | Ethereum (ERC-20) | Ethereum Classic network |
| Consensus | Proof of Stake | — |
| Block time | about 12 seconds | varies by network |
| Address format | 0x… | a native ETC address |
| Network fee | a gas fee paid in ETH that varies with network demand | a network fee paid in ETC |
| Best for | DeFi, NFTs, staking and paying gas on Ethereum and its Layer-2 networks | using its native blockchain, staking and paying network fees |
How Long Does a ETH to ETC Swap Take?
Most ETH to ETC exchanges complete in about 3–5 minutes. The biggest factor is how quickly your ETH deposit is confirmed: the Ethereum (ERC-20) network has a block time of about 12 seconds, and SecureShift waits for around 12–20 block confirmations before releasing funds. Once the swap is executed, ETC is broadcast on Ethereum Classic network, where blocks arrive every varies by network. Busy network periods or a low fee on your deposit can add some time — you can always follow progress live on the order page.
ETH to ETC Fees and Rates
SecureShift has no hidden charges. The service fee is already included in the rate you see before you confirm, so the ETC amount shown is what you should expect to receive (on a fixed rate it is guaranteed). The only other costs are the blockchain fees: a gas fee paid in ETH that varies with network demand when you send ETH, and the Ethereum Classic network fee for delivering your ETC, which is also built into the quote.
Tips for a Safe ETH to ETC Exchange
- Use a plain Ethereum mainnet address you control — do not paste an exchange deposit address that only accepts tokens on another chain.
- Copy your ETC address directly from your wallet and verify the first and last characters before confirming the order.
- Send ETH only on the network shown on the order page (Ethereum (ERC-20)). Deposits on another chain are not detected automatically.
- Send the deposit within the order time window, especially if you chose a fixed rate.
- Always add a refund address — if anything goes wrong, your ETH can be returned without contacting support.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. SecureShift is non-custodial: you send ETH from your own wallet and receive ETC directly in yours, so your funds are never held in an exchange account. Every order has a unique deposit address and can be tracked on-chain from start to finish.
Usually 3–5 minutes. The main factor is the confirmation time of your Ethereum deposit (around 12–20 block confirmations); after that the ETC payout is sent immediately on Ethereum Classic network.
No. You can swap ETH to ETC without registering and without identity verification. All you need is a Ethereum Classic wallet address to receive your funds.
The SecureShift fee and the Ethereum Classic network payout fee are already included in the rate shown before you confirm. The only extra cost is the network fee your own wallet charges to send ETH.
A fixed rate locks the amount of ETC you will receive for the duration of the order, protecting you from price moves. A floating rate follows the market until your deposit is confirmed and is usually slightly better, but the final amount can change a little.
If you send more or less ETH than requested on a floating-rate order, the swap is recalculated at the current rate. On a fixed-rate order, a different amount may be recalculated or refunded to your refund address. Contact support with your order ID if you need help.
