What is Ethereum Classic (ETC)

1. Project Introduction
Ethereum Classic is a decentralized, open-source blockchain that maintains Ethereum's original, unaltered chain following the 2016 DAO hack. After the hack, part of the Ethereum community opted to hard fork the chain to return stolen funds—Ethereum Classic (ETC) was formed by those who opposed this rollback, emphasizing immutability as a core blockchain principle. The split occurred at block #1,920,000 on July 20, 2016.
2. Team & Investment Info
Ethereum Classic operates as a decentralized development ecosystem, with no central team or official hierarchy. Contributions are community-driven and coordinated through the Ethereum Classic Improvement Proposal (ECIP) process. Developers and teams work autonomously, driven by a shared belief in permissionless innovation and immutability.
