I was closely watching market while 2017 bull run happened towards 20000$ . Th emain reason was BCH hardfork success and bitcoin jolders got free BCH it had value more than 1000$ . Then after 2 forks announces one is BTG and another one is segwit2x . People started to invest on this heavily because they will get free 2 coins . It was the actual market hype once bitcoin reached 10000$ it became talk of the town . Rest we seen . Whales took their profit and disappeared . Innocent and greedy people were trapped.
