- Soft work
- Change to the Bitcoin protocol that makes old blocks invalid which
- were valid in the past. Bitcoin Segwit transactions feature was
- implemented as a soft fork to the network.
-
- Hard work
- Change to the Bitcoin protocol that makes previously invalid blocks or
- transactions valid. The BerkeleyDB bug activated an accidental hard
- fork to the Bitcoin network in 2013.
