can we please forget about hardforks? Can't you guys see that it's just a trend going on? Non of these forks is offering anything of value to the entire crypto network, they are all worth nothing. A while ago it was a big thing when BTC would fork, now we hear about a new version almost daily, and one is worsed than the other. One project increases block size, another the total supply, what the heck. The developers are just adjusting parameters and try to deliver the "new bitcoin". That simply won't happen and anyone who is investing in them is way too naive to be in that industry to start with. Start investing in value and value will eventually come to you. See the future potential and don't run behind short term profits, like forked versions.
Hard forks are not just a trend. Sorry to burst your bubble. Hardforks are done at any time anyone wants to split off the Bitcoin chain. There isn't just a fad to make hard forks, they could happen at anytime. The recent one being BCash and this is probably just the first makor one, as BTC grows it will always be under constant attacks like this... it is inevitable.
The hardfork trend was starting by ethereum, But it's not just like bitcoin that generates the fork if the blockchain gets hardfork. This look silly to see the just like NXT give the free coin to the holders. Even ethereum already did hardfork for 5 times. The fork coin trend just like a plague in this time. How the developers try to take the advantage by generate the more free coin.
