Someone has to stop this "forks" shit!

[funchiestz]

Please someone (who capable to that) stop this forks shits.

This became a new Ponzi method. Someone starts to "lets make a new forks" and earn money without work. Bitcoin Cash may a good idea (which I still don't believe) but after them all is a garbage!

This forks is going to harm all market, it is already doing it!

We're sick after the news of fork. It is coming out in everyday. Morever, it is not only for Bitcoin. Last year we've seen a lot of forks. For example: Ethereum, NXT, Ethereum Classic, NEO, and even DOGE...

We don't need any forks. Support the main blockchain networks and if you don't want to believe Bitcoin, then support another projects which suits you.

This is the beauty of decentralization, everyone is free to conduct their own solution for the problem that they can see and produce their own fork.

But sad to say that there's no one that can stop these forks, all of these has an open source code which can be modified by anyone.

So this is the real reason why bitcoin market price has been drop. But why BCH and other crypto do hard fork also been drop in terms of its market price? Instead it will make a good market price pump if they just becoming a fork of bitcoin because BCH has a good market and there are many investors believing on BCH so this should not the reason why BCH bitcoin fork and bitcoin will make the market fall down.

To some extent I do agree with you... on a certain point of view forks are a way of splitting power and delay the progress of crypto in general...on most part they are generated by the egocentric and maniac developers that can't be adults and find a common ground... some of them might even be driven only by money interests...
But we have to remember that we are facing evolution, and sometimes things need to go separate ways and a lot of chaos and confusion will finnaly someday bring a stronger system

[Moxivuki]

You are right, this forked coin has seriously affected the trend of the whole market, but we can't do anything because we don't have enough money to support the decline of cryptocurrency!

Well, forks are just inevitable. Overtime communities divide, new leaders emerge and they find it best to separate when their demands or opinions are not respected. No one is capable for stopping these forks. It's not something that you give a stop command and it stops. Communities with opposing views need to make compromises to stay together. Otherwise we will keep seeing such splits. The worst of them is of course BCASH split into ABC and SV. The new heights of disagreements and greed.

Yes, you are right, no one can forbid making forks, but I is also sure that this is ordinary human greed. These are the ambitions of some people who only harm the market. A lot of projects make forks just for speculation. Players want to make money and that's normal. But I repeat - this is detrimental to the market, unfortunately ..

you can't stop people from copying an open source code and create their own version of it. and also this is a free market and it must remain like that which means anybody is free to create a new coin and release it to the public.

the only thing you can do is to start educating others (the newbies) so that they can understand the difference between a real project and a real coin like bitcoin and a shitcoin copy like bitcoincash. if you do that, then you automatically and eventually stop "forks shit".

The test should come to the investors and they shouldn't put their money first to these fork coins.

It's the discipline that we can use to stop these forks to emerge but only if others are disciplined of not investing and supporting those.

Yes everyone can offer thier own solution, OK! But why are they using Bitcoin name or other cryptocurrencies. They can create and offer new solution for market problems. But no, they are trying to easy way. Bitcoin has a great popularity. And they want to use it.

We are already trying to tell all people from here and other crypto related forums. But it is not enough. There are so many people has alrady got in this world. But less people know what is really going on.

This became a new Ponzi method. Someone starts to "lets make a new forks" and earn money without work. Bitcoin Cash may a good idea (which I still don't believe) but after them all is a garbage!

This forks is going to harm all market, it is already doing it!

We're sick after the news of fork. It is coming out in everyday. Morever, it is not only for Bitcoin. Last year we've seen a lot of forks. For example: Ethereum, NXT, Ethereum Classic, NEO, and even DOGE...

All these forks are rubbish that must be removed from the market. We need to be engaged in the development of parent technology, and nothing will change and the problems will not be solved and we will remain decentralized and unnecessary technology for governments.

[ukloon]

The OP is right, the forks need to be ended otherwise we will see more and more throughout 2019 and the market will never recover. Stop buying bitcoin cash of any kind and stick with pure bitcoin. Other coins will follow and we will see a recovery

I think most of the forked tokens are freely advertised by well-known tokens, such as the BTC forks that appear now.

That is even where the problem of decentralization begin. And it is the cornerstone of Government seeking for regulations. Else we wake up one day and a whole ecosystem is pulled down because of a disagreement between Dev team members resulting in a "fork". Consider what happened to PRL. https://medium.com/@bill_26126/oyster-update-b813390ce10e

I subscribe to the OP's call for someone to stop this "fork".

True, the freedom for the developer to develop their idea, and the success of these stuff depends on the community who decided to support them.  If OP so hate the fork, he can  just ignore them.  I guess no one has the power to stop developers to fork any coins since the source code is open to the public.

Nobody needs to do nothing. It is a self correcting problem. You can't stop forking as you can't stop ICO's. This is how crypto universe is going to evolve.

People should eventually get smarter or they'll lose their life savings. You can't stop it and you shouldn't. It is a natural process.

What you are trying to do is like, exterminating all the mosquitoes because they suck our blood. What you don't know is, some other creature's life is depending on the existence of mosquitoes. And that chain reaction which you started will affect you too in the end.

If a centralized authority decides to shut down bad ICO's or bad coins, then they can also decide to shut down bitcoin one day.

You wouldn't want that do you?

I know you wouldn't then let it go.

it is not ineffective though. what we do is good and it is one step closer to educating everyone. the problem is that we are fighting millions of dollars worth of advertisement that has already brainwashed a lot of people and are still in full force so you can't really expect a small attempt like this to be able to break this mentality overnight.

Using bitcoin's name would give them exposure because there's "bitcoin" on their name.

This is actually a chain reaction for the first people who did it and sadly there's no solution for this unless the community will stick to bitcoin only.

It is all about the money. It can't stop because of two reasons and two key players. First of all people who do the forks are making money because they are making sure they get the most money themselves first and position themselves into a spot where they will be the rich people coming out of it and profit from those forks. Just like bitcoin cash and all that before it happened quickly and made some people rich.

Second reason is that people make money from it, for example bitcoin cash got like %50 price uptick before the fork happened which means not only the owners and creators make money but smaller investors are trying to make money from it too.

Hence, when people are making money and profiting from something at the cost of losing all of this and causing a bear market, you can' tell them "don't do it", they won't listen to you.
