Paul Sztorc's Bitcoin fork, ECX, has rapidly mined over 25,000 blocks within 13 hours since its Alpha phase launch, demonstrating strong miner participation with 3.53 PH/s hashpower. The network's difficulty has surged from 1 to over 16 million, indicating rapid adjustment and active mining pools. Although ECX currently has no market price or exchange listings, the project aims for a mainnet launch around October 31, 2026, when trading might begin. This early mining success contrasts with previous forks lacking support, but the project's long-term viability depends on sustained miner interest and market adoption.
