RE: BravoCoin: Showing The Age Of Abundance By Getting Paid For Reviews
Sure would be nice if they gave us some free coin for being stakeholders already. Seems like Bitcoin is the only coin that actually gives you free coins when it forks.
@sames has said it. bitcoin forks gets to claim "free coin" because it forks from bitcoin blockchain at specific block number so the balances from bitcoin chain carries on to the new chain. However if the fork is starting a brand new chain from bitcoin's code there would be no "free coins"

BEOS is dropping coins on Bitshares holders who stake with them.
Outside of that, there are few DPOS forks that do that.
Those are chain split forks. They fork from the Bitcoin blockchain directly at a specific block number. This gives the holder at the block number claimable coins. "free coins"
Litecoin,Dash and many others are code forks. They fork the codebase of the chain ie Bitcoin.
Chain split forks are either due to politics(Bcash) or a way to airdrop coins in a decentralized way(bootstrapping holders)
