Over thousands of years, gold has maintained its worth owing to seven distinct characteristics. The precious metal is limited in supply, long-lasting, expensive to produce, easy to transport, capable of being divided, interchangeable, and simple to transfer.

The creation of #Bitcoin successfully transitioned every one of these seven traits into a digital format. Taking this technological evolution a step further, #EthereumClassic preserved all seven of those core properties while also making them fully programmable.

Ultimately, this means that ETC serves as programmable digital gold.
