Hard Forking (adverbial phrase)

Hard forks occur when a cryptocurrency updates the codebase of its full nodes in a way that renders previously built full nodes incompatible.

See, ethereum did a hard fork not to correct a bug, but to correct a "theft" that didn't break any of the currency's rules. The results were predictable.
