The fork happened as the Bitcoin Cash Node and the Bitcoin Cash ABC communities have not managed to find a consensus on what the future rules of the mining should be. The Bitcoin Cash ABC community calls for a new "Coinbase Rule," according to which a portion of the block reward (around 8%) should be distributed to the developer team.
