People are just wanting to fork off BTC at the moment to create demand for their 'new coin'.
I get they are just trying to make improvements and they are just trying to further the BTC chain. But in all honesty, the amount of 'forks' or even if you want to look at it as 'dividends' for holding Bitcoin that are coming out will make some of these new currencies redundant if it happens too often me thinks.
It’s going out of control.
