Smart Bitcoin (SBC)SBC
An April 2018 fork at block 520,000 that pitched DPoS, 3,000 TPS and atomic swaps with EOS; no source code was found.
The wiki's angle: Smart Bitcoin's site listed the exchanges that had agreed to snapshot balances for it — a distribution announced through exchanges as much as through code.[1]

Pitch
The archived site, captured on 21 May 2018, offers to “Make Bitcoin faster and smarter”[1]. It says “SBC is capable of handling up to 3000 TPS” and that adopting DPoS consensus would cut energy use[1]. It promises “atomic cross-chain trading between EOS, ONE and SBC”[1].
Snapshots
The site says exchanges that “already agreed to take snapshot for SBC are: Huobi, AEX(btc38), Octaex, GBCAX, Bitpie”[1]. Wallet holders were told SBC would be added to their private key and to claim it “under the official guidance”[1].
Record
The 2019 fork list gives “fork at 520000” and “no source code available”[2]. Block 520,000 was mined on 26 April 2018[3]. It should not be confused with Bitcoin Smart (BCS)[2].
