I imagine Satoshi Nakamoto has much less name recognition than Bitcoin? A simpler theory is that the first popular cryptocurrency became more and more famous due to a snowball effect, and nothing else is able to catch up. Apparently the first popular stablecoin can't be beat either, despite its sketchy origins and a lot of bad press. If beyond a certain point, only fame matters, it's kind of depressing from a technological innovation point of view.
