How ever people feel about another Bitcoin fork we do need another GPU coin for mining to spread hashrate around,as it stands earnings are dropping with so many miners competing with few successful projects,ether going POS soon and all that hardware will be looking for a new coin also, If mining is going to be as profitable as beginning of year new POW coins are needed.

so we can´t create a BTCG wallet at moment or?


thx


at this moment there is only https://glatinum.info wallet but it's not trusted.
better to wait till 1st Nov to see more trusted wallets.

The only way we can tell if it is indeed safe is for some guy here posting that he claim Bitcoingold using Glatinum, until no one testify that it is a safe wallet I will not going to use it now and will wait for the right time to use it or find a better and a safer wallet.

And if the one that posts that info is actually a scammer running a wallet with glatinum?
My god are you so easy to trick.

The BTG price has been keeping dropping.
It is possible that it will be worth only 0.01btc when the wallet is ready.
The luckiest are those who kept btc at exhanges and sold it the earliest.

You realize that the price went down this much with only the coins that were in the exchanges.
A lot of users have their btc stash safe so their bitcoin gold coins can't reach any exchange right now.
This is actually the reason for the price difference:
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin-gold/#markets

Where there were more coins available the price went down further.
Since you can't actually transfer them withdraw there is also no arbitrage happening.
I imagine a far lower price than 0.01 that's still almost 60 dollars to much for it.

Don't import keys from an address that has btc in it.
Send the btc to a new address first.
Then import the old keys into a btg wallet.
This relies on replay protection of course; but if there is no replay protection, why are you trying to split coins?
There is a way to split coins from a fork that has no replay protection, but it's way too complicated for me.
So:  wait.

if i send bitcoin to another address and wait for 30 confirmations, i need to worry about no replay protection? i don't think so because those bitcoin are now associated with another privatekey right?

A transaction can be replayed years down the line 1000s of blocks in the past

I don't know how much you know about replay attacks but its mainly all about nothing if you are smart enough

A replay attack is when you send a transaction one one chain that yes once verified is safe but on the other chain a payment was not made but the signed transaction you send will also be valid on the other chain and can be replayed by someone sending your coins on the other chain.

They cannot modify the transaction though and can only send it the same address so if you are sending to yourself then a replayed transaction would just go to you too.

You are best off just sending all coins on both chains to different addresses that you own at the same time that way you can guarantee nothing can be replayed

for example

                             ----->----- NEW ADDRESS1
OLD ADDRESS -->--
                             ----->----- NEW ADDRESS2

Then OLD ADDRESS would be empty on both chains and all funds would be in different addresses so nothing to replay



what you said only work if i don't move my coin before i dumptheprivate key to claim my coin on the other chain, if i move my coin first, it doesn't matter if there is replay protection or not, because my coin are not in that wallet(privatekey) anymore, this how i have understood it, where is this thing about 1000 block in the past? source please

There is no wallet yet ready .

When are wallets to be expected? I mean binaries for Windows, Mac, Linux?

Probably early november there will be the full node wallet from the day the network goes live and other supporting wallets like coinomi should also be available from day 1 or possibly a few days later

Don't fall for this scam, just because it's called Bitcoin it's just a shit coin the dev are already pre mining it for a week and from.what I found they have tried to make an ico before

https://web.archive.org/web/20170831032225/http://btcgpu.org/

Basically they will have 200 000 btg to dump and people will lose their money.

Things have changed there WILL NOT be 200k coins pre-mined read the code its 8000 blocks (100k) and this is not being released straight away it's being timelocked on the blockchain and released at 20k a year so if this coin does not survive the devs get very little and most will die still locked in the chain untouchable

I understand but why did they are already mining it ?
https://bitnodes.21.co/nodes/?q=Bitcoin+Gold

Basically they are setting difficulty low and mining all the coins during a whole week before release ? To me it's the same.


Them nodes are nothing to do with them just people that have built from source and if you look at the block height they are all at or below the fork block so no there have not been new blocks mined

The premine will most likely happen local and probably in a day the difficulty is being set at 1 to block times would be seconds apart for this

Is anybody know Electrum wallet is supporting BTG or not?

Obviously no since they only develop bitcoin wallet, but since the code is open source, maybe someone will use it to make BTG wallet Roll Eyes
I mean holders of btc coins in Electrum wallet will be able to recieve BTG? or only holders of Coinomi, Guarda and Freewallet?

correct, I think that's no problem if electrum does not support bitcoingold because you can import your address into another wallet. usually coinomi is always open to other wallets in claiming hardfork coin from bitcoin.
