About Besu

Besu is an enterprise-grade Ethereum client written in Java. Ethereum Classic support reaches it as a plugin that adds it into the upstream codebase rather than as a separate ETC client, so it adds ETC chain support to the execution layer only — no mining, no Proof-of-Work consensus. That makes it a fit for non-mining infrastructure such as exchanges, RPC providers, block explorers, and indexers, and for cross-client protocol validation.
