Lets see:

Bitcoin Core

Radically altered block structure and incentives with "optional" SegWit, implemented contentiously to the degree of requiring a

Radically altered block size by keeping the once temporary maximum block threshold

Radically altered with Peter Todd's poor implementation of Replace by Fee that makes 0-conf transactions untrustworty

Bitcoin Cash aka ABC/BU/XT :

Rolled back SegWit, corrected malleability problems without big changes to block structure or rewards or mangling the codebase with bloat

Restored the original 32mb upper threshold of Satohi's first client versions

Removed RBF, restoring the user selected security function


Which one is the altcoin wearing a stolen brand again?

Hijackers forced Satoshi's project into being a minority chain.
