Ethereum Classic is a decentralised blockchain platform that supports smart contracts and decentralised applications (dApps). It emerged as a result of a split from Ethereum (ETH) and upholds the principle of "Code is Law," ensuring immutability and resisting external governance.
Ethereum Classic operates on a Proof of Work (PoW) consensus mechanism, using the Ethash algorithm to validate transactions and secure the network. It supports smart contracts, enabling developers to create programmable and decentralised solutions, with ETC serving as the platform’s native cryptocurrency.
Ethereum Classic was created after a contentious split from Ethereum in 2016, following a disagreement over governance and the handling of a major hack. ETC retains the original Ethereum blockchain, preserving the philosophy of decentralisation and immutability. It continues to evolve as a stable platform for dApps and smart contracts.
