In short time, hard forks will make Bitcoin price go up. And the truth is that Bitcoin has reached over $16000 now. But in my opinion, they create hard forks to get profit instead of improving Bitcoin weaknesses. There are too many "Bitcoins" now and most of them are unnecessary.
one way or another each fork brought Bitcoin user a certain income, because even Bitcoin will come out had or has some value. But for today I'm shocked by the fact that when I saw a price of $ 16,000 for Bitcoin, I probably still pay attention to all the predictions.

We don't really need any fork of bitcoin unless something goes really wrong, all these forks have just been a way for people to ride the bitcoin wave and make a quick buck, there are three or four this month none of which will be around next year.
Most of the forks done are not having any major initiative behind their reason to fork from the bitcoin blockchain. The bitcoin cash fork did have the block size increase and is surviving because of the bid whales who have invested in it. The other forks are not worth and will not have any potential value in the future. There many upcoming forks which will be increasing the people's capital amount but most of them will be dumped as soon as people receive their forked coins. These forks are going to turn out waste of time as people will still continue to use BTC and dump the others.
The forks do not solve the problem of long transactions. People continue to use bitcoin original and do not want to pay attention to the forks. Forks are good only because we get free coins, that's all.
Seriously, if we just look at how many hardforks bitcoin will get this month. Will that have a positive or negative impact on bitcoin?
I can imagine, now that bitcoin becomes more and more mainstream, that more forks will follow next year. However does a negative hardfork impact bitcoin in the future?
Forks are just a way to form new currency but for now there is no need of more fork as it every time makes a new coin on bitcoin algorithm but its not a success. Every time they try to make another bitcoin but its impossible to do so. Most of the forks have created coins which just have the name of bitcoin with it but has no success. Bitcoin is a very big currency and no one can replace it is any way. I don’t think there is any need of more bitcoin forks.

All these forks are just for a very easy money grab cashing in the name of bitcoin.
No way to stop these but these are affecting the value of bitcoin to go up only.

Only necessary for those who make fork. Quite unnecessary for everyone else. Ofcourse we dont need!
It just causes the pollution around. We see a new fork news every day

I'm holding BTC for long time. I like forks) Easy money from nothing) just bonus for patient)
I agree with these comments!
we bitcoin holders don't need these ridiculous get-rich-quick scheme forks
but those greedy devs of forked coins surely want it bad so they can profit and dictate rules on their own chains
what was and will happen is people would claim these forked coins and soon or later will dispose/convert to BTC
in the end it would just drive BTC price to go up even higher and those forked coins to die slowly
I would say claim your share on those fork chains, dump it and forget it
never look back and regret your decision even if those forks get price pump now and then
if you participate in those pumps, you might ended up losing and just help prolonged the life of those forks
yes because a poor like me can benefit all forks because it can provide me some bucks on it
Everybody can fork the chain and go on their own way. Majority decides what is beneficial. Most forks are dumped in exchanges pretty quick anyway. More forks doesn't hurt real Bitcoin. I wouldn't complain about that. When people realize these forks are useless maybe they will stop doing that.
The answer to the OP question is definitely mixed. Some say that fork is useful for us to buy Bitcoin and start Bitcoin investment. But maybe there are some people who think that fork is harmful and they do not want fork anymore. Usually people who have invested into Bitcoin will not want any fork to happen and they just want price increases to happen on Bitcoin. There are also some people who panic when the fork, usually such people are newbie who is still new to the world of cryptocurrency. But for some people who work to get Bitcoin, fork is nothing because the payment is the same.
no i dont need it, what we all need may be air drop BTC please, to some poor guy like me..lol 
, just imagine

do not need it, it's just a popular way of distribution at the moment, but it's bad that they get the capitalization from scratch

Most forks are irrelevant, they add nothing new to bitcoin and are not innovative, so we not only do not need new forks, we do not even need the ones that were created recently but since anyone can copy & paste the code then everyone can create a fork and think of himself as a developer.

I am personally, SO SICK, of all the btc forks. I think each one is a more desperate money grab than the next. And I honestly think they only harm the crypto community.
I personally refuse to support by trading, mining, or dealing with btc hardfork coins ...
Agree. Hopefully people are getting tired of this concept soon.
Maybe the next scam cycle is crypto kitties copies.
Bitcoin doesnt need more forks but that wont stop more forks from happening.
Actually forks can't be stopped because anyone willing to make small changes in bitcoin can fork bitcoin as it is open sourced. We have already seen 100s of forks before and there can be 100s of the them in future too, all the coming forks you have highlighted will not bring any significant improvement in bitcoin so they are just another altcoin which might not hold any value at all.
Just been said above by some people,Me also is already tired of these forks which this just only an alibi to make significant changes on bitcoin but it appears that this is just a scheme on making even more money just like we do saw on past forks which I don't really see any changes on what they are proposing which turns out that those forks are just useless and nothing special at all. Even no matter how many forks would come out then they are just still be an altcoin.
As an ETH fan, I'm happy for all the BS BTC forks. Each one will be less valuable than the one before and eventually the BTC forks will be so watered down that they will be like the ETH airdrops on bitcointalk (which is essentially worthless).
You can already see this from Bitcoin Cash to Bitcoin Gold to Bitcoin Diamond (futures). The more BTC forks, the less attention they will get. Hopefully helping ETH.
