Ethereum Classic was a hard fork from Etheruem which is the second-ranked cryptocurrency concerning market capitalisation and ranking. Similar to how Bitcoin Cash is a hard fork to the most popular cryptocurrency Bitcoin.
The main reason for the fork was the major 6.2 million ETH hack that Ethereum Classic did not agree on reversing as it would compromise on the immutability of the Blockchain.
