Hard Forks
Did Ethereum ever come out and try and create a process to dictate what will happen when something like this happens again?<p>This case was a perfect storm of:<p>- very bad publicity with most people's first introduction to Ethereum, the DAO, being hacked<p>- Ethereum core team members and miners being affected by the hack<p>- a large hack, monetarily speaking, in relation to the ecosystem.<p>- the ecosystem still in its infancy so the system is much open to even considering a hard fork option at all<p>I mean you can't just outlaw programming mistakes.  This is going to happen again<p>What happens next time when the hack is smaller, say 1 million, and doesn't affect anyone on the core Ethereum team or any miners, ie it just affects regular Ethereum investors.<p>Does everyone vote again with the expected outcome of the miners not worrying about hte little people?<p>Does it not even get a vote?<p>Or have they set the precedent that they always roll back hacks now?<p>I think Ethereum has some good leadership, but I think this is something that they really need to get a policy on now.<p>What can be done here?
