I have seen Bitcoin become a number of forks a few months ago. Like BCH, BCD, B2X, BCP, SBTC.
whether bitcoin be a fork again next year
I believe that it is very difficult for bitcoin to recover as much as 2017 and it will take many years for bitcoin to recover. Bitcoin prices are unlikely to recover, of course altcoin prices will continue to fall further and I believe that at this point you will only long term investment in bitcoin only. The market is in a very difficult period so you have to trust the market.
