Really there are these much bitcoin forks? Why are there forks anyway? Isnt one bitcoin enough?

And the true bitcoin is bitcoin cash. This is the truth because it follows satoshi nakamoto's plan to scale is just to increase the MB block.

But due to crypto politics that was not followed.

Bitcoin is becoming nothing but a "meme" for some developers, especially the less skilled ones. If they really did care about the network or the protocol, wouldn't they develop something that would make Bitcoin more useful?


Are you saying that you support Bitcoin Cash? Your post in confusing.

Accidental forks happen all the time, but assuming you're talking about deliberate ones, I think that all of the publicised forks after BCH have basically been an attempt at a money grab.

Basically, they thought that if they come up with a fairly basic concept (that has actually been done before), and then make it a fork and tell Bitcoin news sites about it, newbies will take enough of an interest to pressure exchanges to list their unnecessary new fork.

Once it gathers enough momentum (sometimes artificial), exchanges feel pressured to list the fork and then, since everyone already has some, they start trading it, which makes everyone wrongly believe that it's valuable.

Fortunately, recent forks have failed to keep that cycle going because their game has become far too transparent at this point.  It doesn't matter how many new forks there are at this point if none of them get on exchanges.

the difference between a fork and a crapcoin is this:
crapcoins made by copy/pasting bitcoin code without any innovation restart at block 0. retaining no transactional data.
however a fork retains historic transaction/block data upto a certain date before they go in their separate direction

all you can say is that forks can create crap coins but not all crapcoins are forks
otherwise there are a lot of exceptions to your forkcoin examples. there are forks such as "bitcoin new year" that didn't even survive long enough for people to know them. they are in fact crapcoins.

and about your last line i have to say a fork doesn't have to necessarily go in their "separate" direction. SegWit was a fork, so was P2SH fork in 2016 IIRC, and more. they didn't go their "separate" directions, they improved bitcoin by adding a new feature to it.

It would be interesting to put what they claim to be different from Bitcoin. Bitcoin Cash has larger blocks. BTG a different mining system.

BTCP claims it's anonymous, but I do not think it's a fork of Bitcoin, but from Zcash.

Because it has the power of money behind. The support comes from the ones who aim to earn much more money. The manipulated miners, traders etc. They are pushing Bitcoin Cash is the real Bitcoin which is not being accepted by wide range of crypto users...

This forks are made to solve some of the bitcoin issues but it seems in the end they just become useless and as you can see only few of them are of value and can be traded. Its just noticeably wondering why bitcoin cash has that greater value compared to other forked bitcoins.
