Code is Law": The main principle of immutability of Ethereum Classic! 💻🔒
The central and defining principle of Ethereum Classic (ETC) is the philosophy of "Code is Law". This means that the rules embedded in the blockchain and smart contracts must be immutable and final.
What does this mean? Any transactions once recorded in the blockchain cannot be reversed, altered, or censored, even if they are the result of an error or malicious action (as in the case of the DAO).
Opposition to human intervention: This philosophy rejects any centralized or human decisions that could influence the history of the blockchain. This provides maximum censorship resistance and reliability.
Trust in code: Instead of trusting people or organizations, "Code is Law" calls for trusting the cryptographic guarantees and logic embedded in smart contracts.
ETC's commitment to this principle makes it a unique project that provides a platform with true immutability and lack of censorship.
