Hard Fork

A hard fork is a severe and irreversible divergence in the protocol of a blockchain network that renders previously valid blocks or transactions invalid. It happens when the network’s rules are modified or changed, resulting in a split from the previous blockchain.

Following a hard fork, two incompatible blockchains coexist, each with its own set of rules and consensus procedures.
