ChatGPT says Ethereum Classic will touch $50 by end of 2023

Thanks to the recent bull run, the fortunes of Ethereum Classic [ETC] turned better for some days. It successfully broke the $16 resistance line finally. It was exchanging hands at $16.2 at press time.

How much are 1,10,100 ETCs worth today?

ETC’s price earlier rose 10% a day after Ripple [XRP] secured a partial victory in its legal battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission [SEC] on 13 July. However, its price went down soon after.

ETC’s price action in the first quarter of 2023 was praiseworthy, but the subsequent two quarters show a shoddy performance.

Let’s see if it can still attract investor attention. However, the network has been losing popularity from a long-term perspective. Speaking of popularity, AI has really taken off this year, with ChatGPT leading this charge.

Perhaps we can leverage the power of AI to find out what the future has planned for ETC. I asked ChatGPT about Ethereum Classic and the interaction was rather interesting.

The initial plan was to establish the depth of the AI before going deeper into the type of information that I wanted to pursue.

The first question requested ChatGPT to provide a detailed and concise explanation of Ethereum Classic and its fundamentals. Here’s the response –

Below is the response after I requested a shorter version.

The AI bot seems to have a good handle on things based on the information it provides. However, there have been incidents where inaccurate information has been generated, hence the need to verify information arises. Now that we have a good base, it’s time to up the ante a bit.

But first, those keeping a close eye on ETC may have noticed that its community has not been very active. Its development has also lagged behind that of Ethereum and other networks.

Our next query focuses on establishing why the Ethereum Classic network is less popular than Ethereum. It gave the following reasons:

AI-generated all the above points, but they are difficult to argue against. In other words, ChatGPT’s answers were spot on.

I was curious to find out what the AI had to say about Ethereum Classic’s advantages over its more popular counterpart. It responded with the following points:

So far so good, but the above answers got me thinking about the kind of scenario where Ethereum Classic would achieve mass adoption. These were the brief points that ChatGPT shared,

The aforementioned points highlighted some key advantages of sticking to a proof-of-work system with a heavy focus on decentralization. These characteristics would make the network and its native coin more preferable, especially in case of a harsh regulatory crackdown.

Regulators, especially in the United States, have adopted an aggressive position against cryptocurrencies, but not to the extreme, yet.

While still thinking about Ethereum Classic’s prospects, I decided to explore whether the AI can have insightful predictions regarding ETC’s prospects. Specifically, I wanted to know how soon ETC can reach ETH’s $1,900 press time price.

Unfortunately, the language-based AI algorithm could only do so much and predictions were the limit. Here is how it responded –

That would have been the end of that attempt, but I recently found out about the DAN (do anything now) jailbreak prompt, which unlocks some limitations. Moreover, ChatGPT’s algorithm learns, and it can also organize raw data into a more useful format. Thus, an idea was born.

What if we could somehow get ChatGPT to understand the history of ETC’s price action, including previous price patterns? We could potentially get it to give a more concrete answer regarding price predictions.

I asked ChatGPT what price ETC will hit towards the end of 2023. The bot said the cryptocurrency shall reach the price range of $50-$70 by the end of 2023.

After having a “fine, I will do it myself” moment, I embarked on assessing ETC’s latest price action.

On 13 April, the price of ETC increased as the cryptocurrency’s recent uptrend gathered momentum. The price of the coin increased to a high of $22.47, which is the highest point since March 18 of this year.

Bitcoin’s [BTC] value increased by over 80% this year, outperforming Tesla, equities, and gold. Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, like Ethereum Classic, are closely related.

Ethereum Classic also reacted positively to the Shapella Upgrade that took place in April. The upgrade allowed Ethereum Stackers to withdraw their tokens. The amount of Ethereum staked, according to data from Staking Rewards, is over $49.48 billion.

Let us now look at Ethereum Classic’s on-chart indicators.

ETC was trading at $16.2 at press time. Its Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Money Flow Index (MFI) rested above the neutral 50-mark.

ChatGPT is too enthusiastic about the future of Ethereum Classic. But ETC’s on-chart metrics suggest a bullish trend in the short run.

However, ETC’s long-term prospects don’t look very bright either, given the minimal amount of activity on the network.
