Apparently, it was not actually a hard fork. It was a bug that made old nodes not follow any alternative blockchain, instead they just seem to stop and refuse follow any chain.

Thank you

Good article. Nice to see I'm not the only one who thinks like this. The coin market will be turbulent for the upcoming year(s) but I really believe in the blockchain as a technology. We really need more insights in the market and previous investment results. I was wondering if anyone of you uses: https://www.coincheckup.com I don't know any other site that gives such good inisghts in the team, the product, advisors, community, the business and the business model, etc. Check for example: https://www.coincheckup.com/coins/Zcash#analysis To watch Zcash Detailed analysis.
