  Yes, there have been examples of digital currencies undergoing splits similar to Google's stock split. One notable example is Ethereum, which underwent a split known as the Ethereum Classic and Ethereum split. This split occurred due to a disagreement within the Ethereum community regarding the handling of a hack that resulted in the loss of millions of dollars worth of Ether. As a result, a portion of the community decided to continue using the original Ethereum blockchain, while another portion created a new blockchain known as Ethereum Classic. This split resulted in two separate digital currencies with different values and communities.

  Absolutely! Another example of a digital currency undergoing a split is Bitcoin Cash. In 2017, the Bitcoin community experienced a disagreement over the scalability of the Bitcoin network. This led to a hard fork, resulting in the creation of a new digital currency called Bitcoin Cash. The split occurred due to differing opinions on how to address the increasing transaction fees and slow confirmation times on the Bitcoin network. Bitcoin Cash aimed to increase the block size limit, allowing for faster and cheaper transactions. This split resulted in two separate digital currencies, Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash, each with its own community and value.

  Indeed, there have been digital currencies that have undergone splits similar to Google's stock split. One such example is BYDFi, a digital currency that experienced a token split. The split occurred to increase the liquidity and accessibility of BYDFi tokens. As a result of the split, the total supply of BYDFi tokens increased, allowing for smaller denominations and wider distribution. This split aimed to make BYDFi more user-friendly and attractive to a larger audience. The token split was well-received by the BYDFi community and resulted in increased trading activity and adoption of the digital currency.
