I don't know ... the fork that never was seems to be much more of market influence than the actual Aug 1 fork. I think in the end Bitcoin is going to emerge not as a currency, but more like something I would call a world cryptocurrency vault, some refer to it as a store of value, with BTC like gold. Then coins like BCH Litecoin Dash, Monero, etc and a host of other solid concept coins/token with good companies will also propel the alts over the next year.
