Ethereum Classic Overview

Ethereum Classic: Immutable Proof-of-Work Smart-Contract Coin

Utility & Use Cases ETC

Low-Fee DeFi Swaps

ETC fuels automated market makers where traders swap tokens and add liquidity at minimal cost.

Affordable NFT Minting

Creators mint ERC-721 and ERC-1155 collectibles on Ethereum Classic without spike-driven fees.

Play-to-Earn Rewards

Gaming dApps distribute ETC prizes, secured by the chain's rising hash rate.

Borderless Payments

Send ETC worldwide in seconds; negligible fees suit micro-transactions and profit remittance.

Ethereum Classic Technologies Overview

13-Second Blocks

Fast settlement keeps dApps responsive and trading smooth.

Full EVM Parity

Contracts, wallets and tooling from Ethereum run on ETC with no changes.

Predictable Low Fees

Gas rarely tops 1 gwei; EIP-1559 burns the base fee for long-term scarcity.

Fixed Supply Cap

Block rewards drop every 5 M blocks, hard-capping supply at 210.7 M ETC.

High Hash-Rate Security

Largest PoW smart-contract network since the Merge, reinforced by MESS and ETChash.

Funding

With no ICO, Ethereum Classic relies on the Grayscale-funded ETC Cooperative, AntPool's $10 M Grants DAO and community donations to cover audits, client maintenance, tooling and ecosystem grants—voluntary support, no protocol tax.

Roadmap

Spiral Fork (Feb 2024)

Activated Shanghai-class EVM upgrades while retaining proof-of-work and fee burn.

Cancun-Level Upgrade (Q4 2025)

Planned proto-danksharding data blobs to attract rollups and boost DeFi volume.

Grants DAO Cycles

Semi-annual grant rounds finance wallets, security audits and yield-farming apps.

Proof-of-Work Summits

Yearly events unite miners, developers and investors to expand the Classic ecosystem.

Ethereum Classic Security & Audit Reports

Audited Core-Geth and Mantis clients, ETChash plus MESS block deep reorgs, post-Merge hash rate above 300 TH/s, long exchange confirmations and multisig treasuries combine for strong security.
