🔀 WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A BLOCKCHAIN COMMUNITY DISAGREES?
Sometimes, a blockchain's rules change in ways that create a fork.
A fork can occur when software or protocol rules are changed, and different network participants follow different versions.
Two common types are:
🔹 Soft Fork: A change designed to remain compatible with older rules under specified conditions.
🔹 Hard Fork: A change that is not backward-compatible and may result in a separate chain if participants continue following different rules.
Forks can emerge from technical upgrades, disagreements, or different visions for a network.
They show that blockchain development involves people, governance, and technical decisions—not just code.
💬 What matters most in a blockchain upgrade: security, community agreement, or innovation?
