Haha that’s a great one, Jimmy — splitting fork coins really was a “weird job” niche after 2017/18. Tons of people didn’t realize their BTC balances also entitled them to BCH, BSV, BTG, XEC and more, or they were too nervous about messing with private keys.
I remember checking some of my own addresses with Bitcoin Fork Recycler
to see if there were still unclaimed fork balances sitting around. Turned out there was value I would have never bothered chasing otherwise. Pretty wild that something as arcane as forks spun off an entire mini-industry of “coin splitters.”
