Does this mean that Core Bitcoins are and will always be the most valuable one? We have Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Gold and on November, Segwit2x, all forked from Core Bitcoin.
stop giving weird names to bitcoin!it is not core bitcoin, it is not bitcoin core, or anything else it is simply bitcoin it doesn't have any trailing names to it!
Sorry, I am just giving a distinction for this thread. I know there is only one Bitcoin, relax.

bitcoin has been forked at least 600 times and that many altcoins have been spawned from it. some of which did airdrops to bitcoin holders. it doesn't make bitcoin more or less valuable than it is. the value of bitcoin comes from its usage and adoption. mostly from being a currency.
But Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Gold and Segwit2x/btc1 are different. They are a direct split from the Bitcoin blockchain. It is not comparable to the forked code 600 times.
BCC, BTG and B2X can be attained if you have the private keys before the forks. The older your coins are in storage the more access to forked coins you have.

It also makes me believe that the older your coins are in your storage, the more valuable they are because they are entitled for all the Bitcoin forks.
some of these forks last for a short time though!for example BitCore (if i am not mistaken) airdrop will end by the end of this month and they distribute the remainder of the airdrop somehow among the existing users.
Is this a split from the Bitcoin blockchain or a fork in the code? There is a difference. The first one splits the community, the second one can be a scam.
Yes, this could use some clarification...as far as I know that only fork from the original bitcoin where we can actually claim the forked coins if we have our private key is Bitcoin Cash (BCH). But if there are other forked coins that are still valid, please let us know.
