DIFFICULTY	this refers to how difficult/easily a data blocks of transaction information can be mined successfully.^{Source + Source}
FORK	it can also be used to describe a separate cryptocurrency which has been split from the main blockchain, such as namecoin being a “fork” of bitcoin. a split in the blockchain where there are temporarily two different blockchains which miners can work on. (this change is called a “hard fork”.) these can occur if software updates to a bitcoin client are incompatible or if developers decide that changes must be made to the programming of a coin. forks create an alternate version of the blockchain, leaving two blockchains to run simultaneously on different parts of the network. ^{Source + Source}
