Ethereum Classic (ETC) was not created by a single individual. It is a separate blockchain that emerged as a result of a split from the original Ethereum blockchain. The split occurred in 2016 after a controversial hard fork that resulted from the DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization) hack. Some members of the Ethereum community disagreed with the decision to reverse the hack and decided to continue the original Ethereum blockchain as Ethereum Classic. Therefore, Ethereum Classic was created by a collective community who believed in continuing with the original principles and immutability of the blockchain.
