Info of Ethereum Classic

Who are the founders of Ethereum Classic?up
Ethereum Classic is in fact the legacy chain of Ethereum, and its true creator is the original Ethereum founder, Vitalik Buterin. The Ethereum Classic project came into being after a contentious hard fork on the Ethereum blockchain in July 2016, when participants disagreed over whether to revert the blockchain to cancel out the effects of a major hack that impacted The DAO.
Is Ethereum Classic the same as Ethereum?up
No, Ethereum Classic is not the same as Ethereum. The two networks' technical roadmaps have diverged further and further over time since the hard fork in 2016. Ethereum Classic seeks to preserve the integrity of the original Ethereum blockchain, while Ethereum has continued to evolve and make changes.
Can I mine Ethereum Classic?up
Yes, you can mine Ethereum Classic. It is a proof-of-work blockchain, so mining is the process used to produce new ETC tokens and validate transactions on the network. Ethereum Classic uses the Ethash mining algorithm, the same as Ethereum, so miners with Ethereum mining rigs can easily switch to mining Ethereum Classic.
