You can not say there are 20 million shares in circulation, then few years later say: now there are 20 million shares A and 20 million shares B , and C and D and so on ....

In a week bitcoin will fork again, and the new spawn will be called bitcoin gold.
Last time bitcoin holders quickly sold the BCH, which made the coin be in more hands than the bitcoin.

SO now they are holding the BCG which means, less offer and same dynamic as bitcoin.
Thus expect the BCG to be more valuable than BCH

Another way might be atomic transfer features in wallets.
