They presumably didn’t mean a fork between bitcoin and Ethereum, but the variety of forks on those chains.

Ok, well, how many times has the main bitcoin chain had a, uh, so there was the fixing some underflow really early on iirc, I think that counts, but I think that was a soft fork? Has the main bitcoin chain ever had a successful hard fork? I don’t know.

Anyway.

by "the main chain had a successful hard fork" I mean a hard fork where the side that won the common usage of the unadorned name "bitcoin" was the hard side of the fork.
