ETC Maintains Proof of Work Model to Ensure Security
ETC operates its blockchain through a Proof of Work (PoW) consensus system, and it is also the original version of Ethereum. After Ethereum transitioned to PoS, ETC retained its PoW consensus method for validation, as its leadership chose to protect decentralization while enhancing security standards. The token supply of ETC is fixed at 210.7 million tokens, positioning it as a digital version of gold.
