Well Throughout the years there have been many developers such as Mike Hearn with Bitcoin XT,  projects like Bitcoin Cash which was  associated w Roger Ver or Litecoin created by Charlie Lee who  tried to recreate or should I say improve upon Bitcoin..... Perhaps many of these developers who were trying to clone Bitcoin do not fully understand Bitcoin's values, because they often see slow transactions, block size and so many more as something that needs to be fixed but then, all those are what make Bitcoin's features unique......

​That said to me forks and altcoins are not a complete failure. Basically, they help us realize something if Bitcoin was the only cryptocurrency, we wouldn't have realized it. They are more like a test or an experiment for the real gold mine, which is Bitcoin and because they are just tests, each failure makes Bitcoin more valuable and serves as proof that Bitcoin can't do everything perfectly, because if it could then maybe those forks wouldn't have been failed projects. It's all just simple logic......

​Overall, Bitcoin's achievements throughout history and Satoshi Nakamoto's disappearance are all what make Bitcoin unique, and as time goes on, its value and adoption will keep rising as it continues to serve its purpose as a true decentralized digital gold. That's all....

I do agree that many forks abd altcoins have shown that changing one part of Bitcoin often comes with another trade off. Things that do looks like improvements on paper don’t always make a better form of money.

Personally I will say Bitcoin stands on  self merits. Predictable supply’s, security and decentralization all this are what makes it unique. This failed experiment makes strength easy to appreciate abd not a reason why Bitcoin dey valuable.
