Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Endpoints are your gateway to Ethereum Classic, and allow you to communicate with and read data from the ETC chain. For maximum trustlessness, you run an ETC Client locally; a local endpoint is usually made available at http://localhost:8545.
Public Ethereum Classic RPC endpoints are also available, provided either for free to the community or as a subscription service. Because you can sign and broadcast transactions locally using a wallet such as MetaMask, public endpoints can be used whilst maintaining custody of your private keys.
You can use these URLs to transact and deploy to ETC (or it's testnets) by updating your wallet or deployment tool configuration. Make sure you also change your Chain ID to 61 for Ethereum Classic mainnet.
For more information on other networks, check out the testnets section.
It is recommended to select one of the realtime-monitored ETC RPC endpoints over at ChainList.org.
