One of the most obscure stories in Ethereum’s history is the DAO hack in 2016. A vulnerability in a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) project led to an attacker stealing about $50 million worth of Ether. To reverse the theft, the Ethereum community controversially decided to implement a hard fork, creating a split in the network. This resulted in the creation of Ethereum Classic (ETC), while the original chain became Ethereum (ETH). The event sparked intense debate about blockchain immutability and governance, shaping Ethereum's future development.
