Description
Monero-Classic (XMC) is a hard fork of Monero (XMR) created to maintain support for ASIC miners, diverging from Monero's move towards ASIC resistance. Led by early Bitcoin advocate PZ, the project believes that specialized mining machines improve network security and decentralization. Launched after a scheduled Monero hard fork, Monero-Classic retains the original Cryptonight algorithm, emphasizing ecological diversity and the coexistence of different mining philosophies within the cryptocurrency ecosystem.
