There are 105 Bitcoin forks (hard and soft) in total. Of those, 74 are considered active projects, the remaining 31 are considered historic and are no longer relevant.
I am neither surprised to see the list nor to see a few of them listed on coinmarketcap.com.
This part of OP should be updated. How many of 105 forks have been listed on coinmarketcap.com?
If you are interested, I made a table for you, and please feel free to use it, and edit details for your interests.

There are abundant coins with Bitcoin as prefix or suffix in their coin-names. Here is results from Coinmarketcap's Search tool.
The lack of appearance of those forks on coinmarketcap.com means that there are more risks for new investors to get trapped by those shit forked-coins. They are useless and don't have any upgrades to make them better than the true Bitcoin.

One of main reasons those shit coins have not yet listed on coinmarketcap.com is the main purpose of their teams is to scam and get quick & easy money from stupid and naive investors. Their team don't want and don't have intention to spend any fund to list their coins on coinmarketcap.com.

There are people who send Bitcoin to Bitcoin Cash and vice versa, as well as missend to wrong chains of Bitcoin-prefixed or Bitcoin-suffixed coins among those coins already listed on coinmarketcap.com. For the others, who lose money for unlisted coins (on coinmarketcap.com), I doubt that they even don't know about our forum (what a pity) but it is their mistakes and their responsibilities to upgrade their knowledge.


OP makes an excellent thread, for people who want to learn and improve their knowledge.
Your thread is helpful for mine: Sending BTC to BCH or whatever coins, vice versa. Don't do this, newbies !
