Technically, Ethereum has hard forked multiple times, for example to avoid "ice age" difficulty cliffs that were supposed to force the switch to proof-of-stake multiple times now. But the vast majority of miners, and importantly, the currency exchanges, have all been on the same side of those forks.
- viscanti 4y agoThe contention was that it can happen to remove/censor contracts or transactions, not that forks don't happen more broadly. It seems the point still stands that there was a single fork around the DAO and the odds of anything like that again are basically zero.
