Do we need more BTC forks?

[redhack]

Everybody can fork the chain and go on their own way. Majority decides what is beneficial. Most forks are dumped in exchanges pretty quick anyway. More forks doesn't hurt real Bitcoin. I wouldn't complain about that. When people realize these forks are useless maybe they will stop doing that.

The answer to the OP question is definitely mixed. Some say that fork is useful for us to buy Bitcoin and start Bitcoin investment. But maybe there are some people who think that fork is harmful and they do not want fork anymore. Usually people who have invested into Bitcoin will not want any fork to happen and they just want price increases to happen on Bitcoin. There are also some people who panic when the fork, usually such people are newbie who is still new to the world of cryptocurrency. But for some people who work to get Bitcoin, fork is nothing because the payment is the same.

yes because a poor like me can benefit all forks because it can provide me some bucks on it

All these forks are just for a very easy money grab cashing in the name of bitcoin.
No way to stop these but these are  affecting the value of bitcoin to go up only.

Only necessary for those who make fork. Quite unnecessary for everyone else. Ofcourse we dont need!
It just causes the pollution around. We see a new fork news every day

I agree with these comments!
we bitcoin holders don't need these ridiculous get-rich-quick scheme forks
but those greedy devs of forked coins surely want it bad so they can profit and dictate rules on their own chains
what was and will happen is people would claim these forked coins and soon or later will dispose/convert to BTC
in the end it would just drive BTC price to go up even higher and those forked coins to die slowly

I would say claim your share on those fork chains, dump it and forget it
never look back and regret your decision even if those forks get price pump now and then
if you participate in those pumps, you might ended up losing and just help prolonged the life of those forks

Seriously, if we just look at how many hardforks bitcoin will get this month. Will that have a positive or negative impact on bitcoin?


I can imagine, now that bitcoin becomes more and more mainstream, that more forks will follow next year. However does a negative hardfork impact bitcoin in the future?

Forks are just a way to form new currency but for now there is no need of more fork as it every time makes a new coin on bitcoin algorithm but its not a success. Every time they try to make another bitcoin but its impossible to do so. Most of the forks have created coins which just have the name of bitcoin with it but has no success. Bitcoin is a very big currency and no one can replace it is any way. I don’t think there is any need of more bitcoin forks.

The forks do not solve the problem of long transactions. People continue to use bitcoin original and do not want to pay attention to the forks. Forks are good only because we get free coins, that's all.

Most of the forks done are not having any major initiative behind their reason to fork from the bitcoin blockchain. The bitcoin cash fork did have the block size increase and is surviving because of the bid whales who have invested in it. The other forks are not worth and will not have any potential value in the future. There many upcoming forks which will be increasing the people's capital amount but most of them will be dumped as soon as people receive their forked coins. These forks are going to turn out waste of time as people will still continue to use BTC and dump the others.

We don't really need any fork of bitcoin unless something goes really wrong, all these forks have just been a way for people to ride the bitcoin wave and make a quick buck, there are three or four this month none of which will be around next year.

In short time, hard forks will make Bitcoin price go up. And the truth is that Bitcoin has reached over $16000 now. But in my opinion, they create hard forks to get profit instead of improving Bitcoin weaknesses. There are too many "Bitcoins" now and most of them are unnecessary.

one way or another each fork brought Bitcoin user a certain income, because even Bitcoin will come out had or has some value. But for today I'm shocked by the fact that when I saw a price of $ 16,000 for Bitcoin, I probably still pay attention to all the predictions.

True, this is why i do treat these forks are meaningless instead on making upgrades or solution it do end up on just creating a new altcoin which do have a bitcoin name attached to it and nothing new.Most people do like it specially on hoarders of BTC because this would really give them easy money or quick buck when theres a fork but still ends up on cashing it out since peoples loyalty would really still remain to bitcoin.

There is no need to buy if one can get them during forks

I am personally, SO SICK, of all the btc forks. I think each one is a more desperate money grab than the next. And I honestly think they only harm the crypto community.

I personally refuse to support by trading, mining, or dealing with btc hardfork coins ...

The only thing I disagree with this is that this damages crypto, because that assumes that the forks are powerful, the only powerful forks are bitcoin cash and in a lesser degree bitcoin gold every other fork is just a piece of valueless trash that are not worth our time.

[yua_na]

We dont need another btc fork. We only need segwit2x but its failed already. We need the exist bitcoin can lower its transaction fees. If bcash not monopoly the miner it could be big. Another btc fork is just a joke or maybe scam. Its just my opinion you are free to counter my opinion.

The only reason those are creating the bitcoin forks caused by that will be so easy to be listed in the exchange site without doing any effort. Rather than doing ico to compete with another project. Bitcoin cash fork decided by the community to give segwit to the bitcoin. B2x and off-chain development just like lightning network is needed. god bitcoin, super bitcoin and whatever they are calling just another useless altcoin.

[xPPx]

All that is needed is for everyone to trade the forked coin for BTC on day one. All of it. Except for BCH. It's pretty cool...

[SideR]

We dont need any fork shitcoins, it is profitable for the game at the stock exchange but nothing more useful..

I think the more the forks happen the more likely we shall not take these new altcoins to be a real deal, the only thing that will matter the most is the air drop these forks are known for.

I think we shall have less forks because bitcoin going forward needs the communities support and right now a fork to improve transaction times is a must otherwise we are getting tired of them
