I am pretty sure this just makes cryptocurrencies seem like scams, ponzies, etc. This hard fork festival is clearly getting out of hand, and I am not even sure what users can do about it. It is diluting the market, and in the meantime exchanges are reaping in profits through their exchange fees. At the same time this is also inflating the price of BTC (because people are dumping these coins for BTC). Currently it does not really seems like the market is 'healthy'.
