Can someone explain all these Bitcoin forks to me? What is a fork and is it needed? - findingnature - Dec 4, 2017

Can someone explain to me what a fork exactly is? Is it useful or harmful to the market?

Started off as trying to fix the blockchain and make it faster.

But in general it should flow more money into bitcoin.
