why not a new one?

Didn't we saw that already with "forked" Bitcoins? Solving all of those issues that they don't like about Bitcoin, telling to upgrade it to become better.

What they did ended up?

They ended up being shitcoins of the market and they've never been popular again. Bitcoin is Bitcoin and there's no need for any replacement of it and some developers trying to do the same thing and keep the features that it's got because it will never make it the same as the actual BTC that we've got.

That's true! How many projects have tried their very best to create a much "better" coin than bitcoin? And yet, they are nowhere in the market right now. Those forked bitcoins are just trying to survive. Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Classic are just few examples. Though they are still in the trading market, but the eyes of crypto users are mostly in bitcoin. Hard to hold long-term these forked bitcoins because the risk is quite high on these coins.

Well, if BTC is no doubt the best.

There will be the enthusiasts think that they can create better. Instead of contributing to the development of the actual BTC, they want to prove that they're better than the others and the one existing.

But it's not going to work and no can do with that because whatever the community dictates, it's here to stay and that's the king which is Bitcoin, no other than that, no fork, no altcoin.

Then can I earn in BTC if I contribute enough or anything on this platform or does it just depend on the fact that no one is ready to donate anything. (Q)—> if I want to do some work for someone, can be anything, where can I find myself to be open for work to earn some BTC, you know like saving some BTC for myself.

The idea to create a new project is literally the reason to have thousands of coins in the altcoin world already. It is not really that shocking, and I feel like we could just make it work one way or another. I personally believe that the best thing to do in this situation would be letting people decide what they want to do.

I understand that it is not looking all that complicated, but if you let people create any project they want, while thousands and thousands of them fails, there will be a few that will get the interest. For every ten thousand shit project out there, there is a SOL, or AVAX, or ADA, or MATIC, so forth. This is why I believe that we need to focus on the bright side, we could make it work the way it is and not be worried about it.

Check out the services section, there are people offering service and campaigns are out there for you. You don't earn in Bitcoin but you earn it from someone else in exchange of anything.

There are also websites like --> https://www.reddit.com/r/Jobs4Bitcoins/

You can search for the other marketplaces where clients and workers method of payment is in Bitcoin.

There are plenty of Bitcoin forks and other altcoins that came into existence because someone decided that they can do something better. The thing is, Bitcoin is old (compared to other cryptos), it has a big community around it, as well as a lot of media coverage and attention of big companies. It's hard to beat it with a few tweaks here and there. As we can see, the crypto market is in principle not like the dot com bubble: some of the oldest coins are still around and reputable today, and they're not getting obsolete.

The difference is that Satoshi created Bitcoin because they found the cause to create it. But the people who are trying to clone Bitcoin are doing it to make money. When they say they would make it just like Bitcoin, to me it sounds more like they are talking of profits rather than technology.

Some may want to do it because they think they can make it better. But so far, in the history of all clones, we can see how there’s only one Bitcoin.

Why not a person with the same motivation and the intention to create a new enhanced Bitcoin ( ofc their alternative name ) just with the features and stuff, launch this new coin protocol, and also keep its supply limited just like the Bitcoin? let's say I as a person created the "X" coin with a new consensus mechanism like POP (proof of performance) or PoW itself and an enhanced transaction speed with more no of transactions per block by creating a set of master blocks interconnected with the traditional blocks of the same size 4Mb, with predetermined values already stored inside the master block as a cash-register and once a transaction is initiated a block records on the ledger and the master ledger already initiated the transaction, just waits for the confirmation from the block. I think this will reduce the time per transaction and make the blocks ready in less time for the next transaction initiation, and this can greatly enhance the 7 transactions --> 200+ maybe transactions. I don't know just saying, that even people who are involved with the development of Bitcoin will disagree with me in creating a new cryptocurrency like this.
                                                              

We have more than enough coins on the market already, so there is nothing stopping a developer from releasing their coin if they actually think it is superior to anything that is around at the moment, and if it was truly a superior coin you can be sure that people will flock together and support it, but what are the chances this will happen when we have been told this has been the case thousands of times before and every single time it has been a lie?

The mean reason is greed. Bitcoin is unique because Satoshi completely left his creation to the community, without taking any advantage of his share of bitcoins. All the other Satoshis wannabe and bitcoins wannabe just want to make money out of their idea. Building a community like bitcoin's takes years and years, you really need people who trust in you, it's not something that you can do overnight. So why should I go with another bitcoin whose founder decided to keep a ton of coins for himself and he is just waiting to dump them and make money? It makes no sense.
