About
Ethereum Classic (ETC)

Ethereum Classic (ETC) is the continuation of the original Ethereum blockchain, steadfastly upholding the principle of immutability following the 2016 DAO hack, which led to the network split. This decentralized network maintains its commitment to a Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism, currently utilizing the Etchash algorithm, to ensure robust cryptographic security and validate transactions on its digital ledger. As a foundational smart contract platform, Ethereum Classic supports the development and execution of decentralized applications (dApps), providing a permissionless environment for developers to build a wide array of on-chain solutions and leverage its Turing-complete virtual machine. The native ETC token is essential for the ecosystem, primarily serving as gas to pay for transaction fees and computational resources required for smart contract operations and peer-to-peer transfers within this Web3 infrastructure.

Beyond its utility for network operations, ETC's tokenomics are designed with a fixed supply cap, established through ECIP-1017, aiming to position it as a sound digital asset with deflationary characteristics over time, differentiating it from Ethereum's (ETH) evolving monetary policy. Ethereum Classic continues to champion the "code is law" philosophy, offering a resilient and censorship-resistant platform for various DeFi applications and digital assets. It represents an important alternative within the broader blockchain technology landscape for users and developers who prioritize unwavering chain integrity and the proven security model of Proof-of-Work for their decentralized solutions and cryptographic security needs, standing as a testament to on-chain persistence.

Frequently asked questions

  • How can I acquire Ethereum Classic (ETC) using Canadian Dollars (CAD) through a fiat on-ramp?

    To acquire Ethereum Classic (ETC) with Canadian Dollars (CAD), Canadian users typically utilize reputable cryptocurrency exchanges that support CAD deposits. Common payment methods include Interac e-Transfer or Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT).

Always check the supported CAD funding options and order book liquidity on your chosen exchange.

  • What are the advantages of directly trading the CAD/ETC pair for enthusiasts of the original Ethereum chain?

    Directly trading the CAD/ETC pair offers Canadian enthusiasts seamless access to Ethereum Classic, the original Ethereum chain known for its commitment to immutability and a robust proof-of-work consensus. This avoids multiple conversion fees and provides a straightforward way to invest in or utilize ETC for decentralized applications (dApps) within its distinct ETC ecosystem, all funded via their Canadian Dollar accounts on supported digital asset exchanges. This can simplify participation in ECIP developments or network staking if applicable.

  • What regulatory framework, like FINTRAC rules, applies when exchanging Canadian Dollars (CAD) for Ethereum Classic (ETC)?
