8 symbolsUpdated
These days, Bitcoin has more forks in it than a high school canteen. Honestly, it's hard to keep track. Especially with more related products launched now and then, like Bitcoin ETFs.

So to help, let's take a trip down memory lane to cover the most well-known ones for your eyes to feast on. This list is compiled of cryptos that directly hard-forked Bitcoin, not your Litecoin and Peercoins that just copied Satoshi Nakamoto's homework. With this list, you should really look long and hard before you fork over hard-earned cash for anything.
