Just side track a bit:

The reason for Ethereum hard fork, and the subsequent split was to reverse the losses of DAO hack.
Now, with over USD$60 million lost in Bitfinex hack, maybe this give us a "valid reason" to hard fork and reverse the losses? Tongue

this is bitcoin not a crappy altcoin with a centralized dev who does what he wants.

before there was a bigger hack called Mt.Gox that 450 million dollars worth of bitcoin (by that time's price) was stollen it was a bout 850,000BTC and no fork happened.
