A hard fork is a significant, irreversible change to a blockchain’s protocol that creates a split in the network, resulting in two separate chains. A well-known example is the Bitcoin Cash split from Bitcoin. A soft fork, on the other hand, is a backward-compatible change that does not split the blockchain but may impose stricter rules. Soft forks generally do not result in the creation of a new coin, whereas hard forks often lead to new tokens being created.
