> **Visual Note:** A meme depicting a classroom scene where a figure with an Ethereum logo passes a note to a classmate, who angrily reads it stating "ETCs permissionless. Anyone can deploy and use dApps without permission." The post contrasts Ethereum's permissioned approach with ETC's permissionless ethos, emphasizing that ETC has long answered the question of who can build dApps—no permission needed, unlike passing notes for approval.
