What is Ethereum Classic (ETC)?
Layer-1 blockchain
Ethereum Classic (ETC) is a Layer-1 blockchain — a base network with its own consensus, validators, and native coin (ETC) used to pay fees and secure the chain. Developers build applications directly on it, and ETC is the asset that powers the whole ecosystem.
How does Ethereum Classic work?
The Ethereum Classic network is maintained by a distributed set of participants who validate transactions and add them to the blockchain. ETC is required to pay for transactions and, on many networks, to stake and help secure the chain in exchange for rewards.
What is ETC used for?
ETC pays network fees, can often be staked for yield, and serves as the core unit of value across apps built on Ethereum Classic. Demand for ETC tends to track activity and adoption on the network itself.
