Build Unstoppable Applications
Ethereum Classic is a decentralized platform that runs smart contracts: applications that can be run exactly as programmed without any possibility of downtime, censorship, or third party interference.
Ethereum Classic consists of a cryptocurrency (ETC), a blockchain ledger, and an ecosystem of applications and services that run on top of it.
Put simply, Ethereum Classic provides a way to manage digital assets without the need for intermediaries, such as banks and other financial institutions.
ETC allows uncensorable smart contracts to be written, deployed and executed; it enables truly unstoppable programmable money.
Ethereum Classic is the continuation of the original non-forked Ethereum (ETH) chain and exists to preserve the principle of "code is law".
