Most miners and Bitcoin economy including exchanges are behind SegWit2x, effectively enought to call this version Bitcoin. But it is likely there going to be 3rd version of Bitcoin in November, because there might be enought support for a new version of Bitcoin not honouring SegWit2x, thus exchanges might list this new coin as well.

with that definition there are at least 200 bitcoin because about 200 (give or take) altcoins have forked from bitcoin. a lot of them have actually given airdrops like BCC to the users and hodlers of bitcoin.

a correct definition however is, bitcoin is what the consensus says it is. and you already know what the consensus rules say bitcoin is.

Couldn't have said it better. There is only Bitcoin and there are alternatives, regardless of whether or not they were forked off the legacy chain. And if consensus lies in a future fork, then that "technical" alt will be Bitcoin.

P.S. I knew there were a lot, but 200?

I would not mind if for every fork I would be receiving some free coins into my account in the exchange that can be supporting the new altcoin. However, I think this whole thing has to stop because it will make Bitcoin look like a joker. Anyway, I am sure it would not really happen that way. One split I think is enough. Not unless we want to make this whole thing a big comedy then we can have a good laugh.

But is it necessary to get a free coins? and that we know that this kind of coins are just a waste of time from the start, I really think that it became a real shitcoin that are only good to dump, well let's just wait for more years to come if this kind of coin can have a real value. and I really think that the split should be enough and regardless of a notable free coins it is still suck to expect anything from the start.

haha, i am with you on that. the free money is always welcome.

but at the same time this can be a good thing too. for example when things like bitcoin cash fail eventually it proves that when you make a contentious hard fork it is bound to be doomed. and will prevent any similar actions in the future.

Agree ...
however, others will be referred as altcoins

but these ones are still regarded as "bitcoin".  I would say the untapped market is still way too big for all the three to grow Smiley

Clean Code and Scale
If core still ignores miners and NYA  when building 'consensus' code ... there will be more shit happening - YES.
