                                <p>ETC mining is the process of validating transactions and securing the Ethereum Classic blockchain through computational power. Similar to other Proof of Work (PoW) blockchains, mining involves solving complex cryptographic puzzles to add new blocks to the blockchain. Miners compete to find the solution, and the first one to succeed is rewarded with newly minted ETC tokens.</p>

Mining ETC can be done using either GPU (Graphics Processing Units) or ASIC (Application-Specific Integrated Circuits) miners. ASIC miners are specialized hardware designed specifically for cryptocurrency mining, offering higher efficiency and speed, while GPUs are more common and flexible for those starting out or running smaller operations.
