What do you think all these forks will do to the altcoins market? Do you think people will stop taking these forks seriously? Will b2x succeed this time?

I think this is so bad for the reputation of the entire crypto market

Forking Bitcoin has become a lucrative business for both owners of bitcoins and developers of said forks which get to premine them (remember the premine on Bitcoin Gold).

They are mostly useless memes. Some may have some value. For example it is interesting to see different hashing algorithms in action, but then again they could have done it in an altcoin.

It's mostly jokes. Just wait for them to pump them proceed to dump.

All of the bitcoin fork just shitcoin with nothing improvement. Altcoin develop the new evolution in the cryptocurrency just like privacy and master nodes token. Bitcoin fork will die as soon as possible.
There is no value in the bitcoin fork coin that just another short hype token.

I like the idea of Bitcoin Cash Plus.  It has the advantages of Bitcoin Cash but removes the centralization aspect away from Bitcoin Cash.  If Roger Ver argues that Bitcoin Cash is closer to the original vision of the Bitcoin whitepaper, then Bitcoin Cash Plus is even closer to Satoshi's vision.

I like the opportunity to earn on fork of bitcoin, but:
saturation of the market with various versions of Bitcoin confuses users and discredits the assertion that there is a limited number of bitcoins - since you can always fork out and double the number
The most important negative aspect is the deterioration of Bitcoin's image, his ability to be a flagship, his reliability. All these sharp jumps of growth and inflate the same "bubble", about which influential and well-known figures of the world of finance like to talk on TV.

like we havnt have enough fork these days. so many fork with no clear roadmap just their dev try to make more money, and premine it so when the price start increase he dump as fast as he can

I never react negatively to Bitcoin's forks, because nobody can stop the forking and it's truly unlimited. They can fork every after the block is sealed. Bitcoin Cash as the first Bitcoin hard fork and now it's on it's way to rival the Bitcoin price.
Actually it's a fair and square for Altcoins because for me, I would prefer investing hard forks than Altcoins that we have no idea what they're up to and some of them are dying and be vanished after time.
I'm excited about the outcome of this hard forks.

Actually every time there's hard forks are coming Bitcoin will then pumped harder and the same with Bitcoin Cash abd Bitcoin Gold. Hard forks were made to rival Altcoins and I don't see any joke with that. It's just a pretty rivalry game.

What does the fork do?


I'm actually curious and wanna confirm if BTC forks are not done by BTC? but other party?

Hard forks are somehow created when the Bitcoin core developers would not listen to some amendments on how other developers see it beneficial. If there's no integration of ideas then hard forks are the best option to put an idea into reality.
Scalability, security and faster transactions will be the best advancement of a Cryptocurrency. That's why constant development is a must to stabilize the core.

Whether it is good or bad, you can't stop it, it is like ICOs or airdrops there is a profit to be made. But I don't think it will affect bitcoin or market in the long term.

It is a current trend which hopefully at some point will stop, it is just free money for holders but it is confusing for those just coming into bitcoin and must take up a lot of time for the exchanges especially when they are not serious and just out for quck money.

Forks are created to rival Altcoins, although forks has nothing to do with the original Bitcoin but instantly they gain fame because they're Bitcoin's common Blockchain. People are preferring them as another flavor of bitcoin, not fully another blockchain system.
This strategy id highly effective because it has already Bitcoin on their names and people will try to invest on it and ignore good project that has been launched. Instead of making another Cryptocurrency project, they choose to make hard forks to offer good coin price unlike Altcoin today, their prices were very low thousands of tokens a worth of a single dollar.

I disagree, hard forks are also legitimate as they were created to rival Altcoins. And has the potential to become the next Bitcoin. They're Cryptocurrency also that could be used ideally in commerce and marketing like remittances, products and services payments and other use that supposedly Bitcoin was made for. Today, Bitcoin is overrated and it's not actually a Cryptocurrency anymore but a Crypto-Gem that is to be collected and hidden.
Crypto-Currency should be circulated and used as it is.

Short answer is - for money

Imagine that you are making a slightly adopted coin like Bitcoin Gold. BTG currently have nearly 6B market cap and it's premine alt coin. Devs already are multi-millionaires.

Hi friends, few days ago I get information (read on one thread) if bitcoin will fork again, and will born bitcoin silver, bitcoin liza, super bitcoin. Is it right?

[cryptoprophecy]

Bitcoin forks are the being a habit of the bitcoin developers,its getting too obvious devs are just making new coins for their own agendas stop the useless forks and focus on development of BTC.
