It was created to allow users to build and deploy decentralized applications (dApps) on the Ethereum Classic network.Like Ethereum, Ethereum Classic is powered by smart contracts – self-executing contracts with the terms of the agreement between buyer and seller being directly written into lines of code. This allows for the creation of a wide range of applications, including financial applications, games, and even voting systems.One of the main differences between Ethereum and Ethereum Classic is that the latter adheres to the original philosophy of the Ethereum project, which is to maintain a decentralized platform that is not controlled by any single entity. This means that Ethereum Classic is resistant to censorship and is more democratic in nature.
