Why don't we just keep forking Bitcoin once every year or so and save up all the newly created money in a fund that will be used to stop world poverty? Seems to be as good of a reason as any.

Fuck Roger Ver and his merry band of rich kids only looking to get richer.

Because the markets are thin. Fork again and you'll see the deterioration of the price in more immediate terms. The fact that BTC and BCC can remain in an upswing after the fork just demonstrates that there's existing money on that was on the sidelines to be invested in and support both currencies. We're barely 48 hours into this...let's see where things are after 48 days, 48 weeks, or 48 months.

You accuse Roger Ver and others of greed, yet I don't hear you offering to sell your BCC to benefit the poor. You want to start a movement? Donate your air-drop BCC proceeds to benefit poverty, and then encourage others to do it to. That would be a movement.
