FAQ

1. Is MoneroClassic (XMC) a hard fork from Monero?

No. Monero hard forked from itself when updating from v.0.11.1.0 to version v.0.12.0.0. We are working with Monero Network version v.0.11.1.0.

2. Why are you against the hard fork?

We believe the emergence of specialized mining machines for a cryptocurrency is a normal market economy phenomenon and it could greatly improve network security. With specialized mining machines, the events like “Monero was attacked by more than 500,000 botnets” could be avoided. On the opposite, frequent algorithm change creates more centralization.
