Eth famously forked and reversed txns due to someone getting scammed.

  ETH forked because the contract was poorly written and they didn't want to honor the contract because their buddies would have lost a lot of money and the project would have gotten an egg to their face.

  the fact that eth classic was created from this incident and still exists does inspire some confidence that ethereum's governance is somewhat decentralized also, to be fair. And IIRC it wasn't a "scam", it was a bug in a smart contract.

    Yes a smart contract bug. Hacked might be a better word. Or outsmarted?
