Ethereum

After hard fork

The Foundation has committed to supporting community consensus on difficult hard fork decisions. Looking at the results of various indicators, including carbon voting, dapp and ecosystem infrastructure adoption, this means that resources and attention will be focused on the chain currently called ETH (i.e. fork chain). That said, we recognize that Ethereum code can be used to instantiate other blockchains with the same consensus rules, including testnets, consortia and private chains, clones and spinoffs. I have never opposed it To such instantiation.

All users who held ETH before block 1920000 now hold both ETH (the fork chain) and ETC (the community effort to sustain the Norfork chain). Users are generally advised that most Ethereum clients default to selecting the ETH chain, including those developed by foundations and third parties (e.g. Parity). If a choice is provided in a fork of the Mist interface, selecting “Yes” on this choice will lead you to this chain.

Users interested in doing things with ETC, such as creating and participating in applications or converting to other assets, are encouraged to use: splitter contract to the address 0xaBbb6bEbFA05aA13e908EaA492Bd7a8343760477 Move ETC to a newly created separate account to avoid replay attacks. We also encourage the ETC community to consider adopting a secondary hard fork that changes the transaction format to make further replay attacks impossible. Unless that happens, once ETH and ETC are “split” they will need to be managed through separate wallets.

To use a Splitter Contract inside your Ethereum Wallet, click Contracts -> Watch Contract, copy the address and ABI from the Etherscan page linked above and click “OK”. Then, in the Agreements tab, click on the agreement, select “Write to Agreement” and then select the “Split” function. Two addresses are required. In the first, enter the address you want to send ETH to (feel free to enter the same address you are sending to), and in the second, enter the address you want to send ETC to. Try this with a very small amount of ether first to see if it works before increasing the amount. you can use Ethereum Classic Explorer is here Confirm that your ETC balance has been transferred.
