What is ETC (Ethereum Classic)?

Ethereum Classic is an open-source cryptocurrency belonging to the best-known Ethereum system.

We could say that the Classic is a precursor of Ethereum and that it is supported by a team of developers even if it is not an official project.

The difference between the two cryptocurrencies is not only in their official nature.

The initial project took shape in 2015 and led to the formation of the DAO, an autonomous organization that raised ether (the cryptocurrency of Ethereum ) funds to finance projects chosen by the contributors themselves.
