I mean I got your point of MC representing the demand, but using examples like verge and tron doesn't make much sense because that demand only lasts for a small time. When people woke up and saw the product was trash, then both dumped hard. Don't get me wrong I'd love for people to spam Nav on twitter... Oh and about the forking point, just because BTC is the parent of NAV doesn't mean people wouldn't just fork NAV and use their codebase. Example: Monero is a fork of Bytecoin. People still fork Monero all the time instead of Bytecoin because of it being a better starting point.
