I must have ignored forks for a long time and only followed a few closely (bitcoin cash, BCHSV and BCHABC) which makes me think of digging my old private keys in hopes of taking some chump change from all these forks. But anyway though, with all those forks that happened, only the parent survived--or at least is the most active--the picky taste of people when it comes to the coin that they'd like to follow. Also, isn't that a clear statement already? With all these forks of bitcoin that appeared, it didn't appeal much to the public since they know what the real deal is. They can fork off all they like, but the money and eyes would still remain at bitcoin.
