Indeed, the permanent forks of bitcoin have recently been depressingly affecting the altcoyins. They have not been up for several months already and this is already becoming a problem. Moreover, once again declare about the next December fork and another division bitcoin. It turns out, before the New Year at least the altcoins will not rise in price.
I guess guys with lots of Bitcoin LOVE forks, because they'll have lots of free coins / money.
But for others its bad, now most of icos cant even hit softcaps, because alt price goes down significally after they arrive to exchanges.
