I do not believe that the future forks of Bitcoin can generate any currency of value. They are just a tool to further strengthen the price of Bitcoin. However it ends up disrupting the market.

I think that this is an important process in hardening BTC as a currency against would-be attackers. This isn't the last contentious fork ahead of us; the corporate backers of Segwit2x want dozens or even hundreds of capacity upgrades much larger than 8MB. They are done testing the waters with things like Bitcoin Classic and are making their move now.

It's important that the community keeps its resolve, that users run their full nodes, and let it be known that the economic majority can't be hijacked by a few big companies and a majority of the hash rate. As long as the legacy chain emerges the winner here, I think you're right.

Solid points, up-gradation is an inevitable process, without it bitcoin may fall behind. So they are to happen no matter what, even though it may disturb the market for a little while, in the long run, it only strengthens it.

And for people who don't give a damn about the technology and just after money, well you get FREE coins after every fork.
So its a win-win for all.
