Ethereum Classic(ETC) Labs has partnered with Metronome to enable an interoperability solution called Chainhopping of ETH and ETC. This will allow digital assets transfer between two of the largest blockchains. The information comes from the official blog post of ETC Labs.

The cryptocurrency Metronome i.e MET is the first cryptocurrency that will be transferable between the ETH and ETC blockchains. As part of the relationship, ETC Labs will support Metronome’s Validator Network. This is to ensure reliable and secure transaction verification that guards against double-spend attacks and provides fluid cross-chain transactions. Metronome’s Validator Network will initially consist of 5 decentralized, off-chain validators. It is to attest to the validity of transactions and grow its decentralized community.

The two blockchains ETH and ETC forked from each other back in 2016. This is after a contentious vote to return the lost money when The DAO collapsed in 2016.
