ETC rate has already reacted with rapid growth, in a matter of minutes showing a jump of 10%.
Coinbase clients should also be pleased with the news that the company will finally release the ETC coins formed as a result of Ethereum's hardfork in the summer of 2016 and will give users the opportunity to exchange one.
Recall, Coinbase announced the listing of Ethereum Classic in mid-June.
