It seems that price have went through the correction already. Basically I came up with question if anybody here received e-mail from blockchain.info stating you can claim now your BTG ? I have received but there is no other way to confirm except asking or letting other know about this if this is phishing attempt to be careful.

Thanks, I've just tried this but coinomi is saying it "doesn't recognise the private keys format"

Did you do everything as per this description?
https://coinomi.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/29000016813-collecting-your-free-bitcoin-gold-btg-coins-with-coinomi

Thanks for helping out guys

I have now put everything in Electrum
There are now 6 transactions that are 'Not Verified'
Should I wait untill they are verified before I send them to coinomi?
Will I have incurred charges sending from mycelium to electrum
And I think there are 3 BTGs (had 3 BTC at the time of the fork) in there somewhere but presently there are only 0.0003785 bitcoin left on the mycellium.   Is this going to cause a problem?

OK  I've got them at last.  Only 2.6 coins but better than a slap in the face with a wet fish!
I eventually did it by opening a new coinomi walet and restoring the mycelium words.
Thanks all

And what exactly is wrong with me bitching about centralization wherever it rears its ugly head?

::sigh:: nothing.

Though I believe you are confusing the position enjoyed by a superior competitor in the free market with centralization.

A 70% market share in SHA256 ASICS and also have an interest in pools contributing to almost 50% of the hash rate for BTC and 90% for BCH? Oh no, that's not centralized at all.  I suppose by your definition, De Beers was only a "superior competitor" in the free market of diamonds, until recently.

Oh and as a side note: This DragonMint project does look promising. However, if it really appears as though it's going to cut in on Jihan Wu's turf, do you really think that Jihan is just going to sit idly by and let it happen? I'm sure Jihan will make every attempt to get his tentacles wrapped around that project.

jbear hasn't got back to our point yet? it was so good tho

I can't really see what there is to respond to.
- I know nothing about the diamond industry
- You seem to know nothing about the free market
- You seem to engage in conspiratorial flights of fancy
I think we've each made our positions clear. What's left to say?

You keep dancing around the problem of centralization. It seems dishonest. I know I'm but a simple vegetable, but still..

Hello Folks,

As you may have noticed, the source code for the Bitcoin Gold wallet is only available as .zip or .tar.gz file on their Github page.  I don't like that style and I have therefore unpacked all that and put it back onto Github in a more usable format.  You may see it at https://github.com/bostontrader/bitcoin-gold

Does anybody know if there's a publicly visible official edition of this?  Does anybody have any assurance the public binaries have anything to do with the putative source code? 

I also have a collection of several docker files for building a handful of crypto coin wallets, including the above BTG wallet, at https://github.com/bostontrader/crypto-docker.  Using this, you can run the wallet in a docker container and view the output using VNC Viewer.


Please be reminded that there are lots of scammers playing games with these wallets, so please inspect my offering carefully.  I have posted the source code as I found it.  If there is evil lurking within, it didn't come from me.

Enjoy!

And how is this any different from the official source code from gitgub?  https://github.com/BTCGPU/BTCGPU

Ha! My mind must be playing tricks on me again.  The last time I looked at the official repo it only had binaries and zipped source code.  Maybe I was looking in the wrong place?  Anyway... thanks for pointing this out.  I prefer to use the official source code and have updated my dockerfile to do exactly that.

Then you did something wrong.

You could send me the pkey you're trying and I will check it out.  I suggest you continue trying.  No sense trusting me.  Smiley
PM me.

is this checksum secure? 782d0615b309231d9ec243407972b57a978c2640e19673f6a575347d8c69f53d it's from the qt.exe inside the installer not the installer itself

can someone check this please

The correct hash is:
782D0615B309231D9EC243407972B57A978C2640E19673F6A575347D8C69F53D

So, you have the correct bitcoin-qt.exe file.

That said, you should really check the installer file.  Not simply one file within it.

If you still have the installer download, I would check that instead since it is the only known one to be hash checked.

Think I've located the private keys in Mycelium

Where do I put them in the coinomi wallet.    Into BTC or BTG?  

In coinomi, go into the BTG wallet.  Then, on the hamburger, click on SWEEP
Enter the key, but I suggest you scan a QR of the private key.

It will tell you the balance and the fee to sweep.   click ok, and it will pull the funds from your old key into your coinomi wallet.

I've went to mycelium accounts  - Export - pin code -show private - copy clipboard

Then I've tried pasteing in both BTC and BTG but coinomi says "doesn't recognise format"

If somebody would help me it would be a weight of my mind.   I would like to know how to get at my BTGs
At the fork I held BTC in Mycelium.   A few weeks later I moved the BTC to Coinomi.

Where are my freaking BTGs!!

Thanks -  hopefuly.

Your BTG are still in the addresses from the fork.  So, they are in the address(es) that was on your mycelium wallet.
You need to export those private keys and import (actually sweep) into your new coinomi wallet.

You may contact me directly to help you with it, but you should be able to do it yourself easily.

Thanks man

Looking into it now

coinomi.com is best because it has instant exchanger inside, you can exchange bitcoin gold into bitcoins using same wallet.
electrongold.org is good for windows users.

in both wallets, move your bitcoins to new wallet before to keep %100 in safe.

it's not available for windows

Well, not directly.
You can install android apps via Chrome.
I am confirming it works.

Is there a working block explorer out there? The price is holding up pretty nice.

Explorer:
https://btgexp.com/
https://btgblocks.com/

I am confirming it works.I tried my btc addresses in the BTG explorer but the address came up as not there....do we have to add prefix or do a bit shift or something?

Check balance (can use BTC address):

Hi to all! Please, a question: on october 25 my bitcoin were in an electrum wallet. How can I get my bitcoingold now? Thanks in advance for your kindly help

The fork was on October 24th.  So, if your coins existed that morning then you're looking at BTG.

You can use:
https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin%20gold/ - type in your BTC address to see if there is a balance.

As for getting them....
Use electrum to get your private keys.
Then get a coinomi wallet on an android device and at BTG.  Then sweep the addresses from the private keys you exported.

My suggestion is to move your BTC and BCH (if you have any) to another address/wallet first.
Never give your private keys to anyone.  That said, you can give it/them to me and I can claim/sweep and send them to your new BTG wallet address.

I'm looking to hedge BTG. I'd like to short, but there's no exchange that offers margin or futures on btg.

If anyone out there is interested in loaning me 2-3BTC worth of BTG, please contact me. I can post 150-200% collateral (BTC) to a respected escrow of bitcointalk we can agree on.

Just want to be clear on what you're asking (based on current values)....

You're willing to send me (based on your example) a total of 6BTC.
I would loan you 3BTC worth of BTG (which is currently 3*9500/375 = 76).

I am interested in your terms.
