No. Ethereum has never forked any inconvenient data or network state.

I am a huge fan of Ethereum but I think the DAO hack fork unquestionably falls into this category.

Ethereum was only a few months old at that point and you could say it was alpha software with training wheels.

No true Scottish hard forks then.

That’s… a far cry from never.

“It never happened! Except that one time when it was an alpha”

Movin those goalposts...
