Ethereum almost died in 2016 — and it split the blockchain into two chains.
In 2016, the project The DAO based on Ethereum raised $150 million. A month later — a hack. The hacker took 3.6 million ETH (at that time ~$50 million). The community was in panic. What to do?
👥 The community voted for a rollback of the blockchain and a return of funds. But not everyone agreed — Thus, Ethereum (ETH) and Ethereum Classic (ETC) were born.
⸻
📌 ETH is the result of the “restart”. 📌 ETC is the original, “untouched” chain.
⸻
💬 Interestingly, Vitalik Buterin was initially against the rollback, but still supported it for the future of the ecosystem.
⸻
⚠️ This case still causes debates: What is more important — code as law or fairness and security?

💬 Would you rollback the blockchain to save funds? Or “code is code”? 👇 Share your opinion in the comments.
