> **Visual Note:** A comic-style image shows a red-haired woman on a beach arranging rocks to spell "HELP," while airplanes drop parachutes in the final panel. Text reads: "Ethereum Classic supports the Ethereum Virtual Machine, making it possible to build smart contracts using familiar development concepts," visually reinforcing the post's message about $ETC's EVM compatibility rescuing developers stranded on unstable chains.

At block 25,000,000 in July, the block reward dropped 20%: 2.0480 → 1.6384 ETC. Fixed under ECIP-1017 — no vote, no override, protocol-enforced. Sound money, on schedule.
