Yep this is legitimate like what happened in the last fork in august i think or September can't remember. You will be given the same amount of the bitcoin you hold to the new token that is fork in this case bitcoinGold. You just have import your encryption keys to a wallet that supports it or exchanges. This new coin might be a pump and dump just like BCC. But who knows maybe it is back up by some corporate entities.

Excuse my question, but how much BTC you need to have, to receive BTC Gold? Huh
And also, will I be able to mine BTC GOLD with my rigs?

Is Bitcoin Gold "segwit2x"?
No, "bitcoin gold" is what formerly called itself bitcoinGPU.

Notice the funny little "ICO" part?

ah! thank you very much for the information. I thought it was fake news as there seems to be little or no news about bitcoin gold.

Does anybody know if Coinbase will support this? Last time they did not and hence we lost our BCH Sad

I'm curious to see how many "Bitcoins" will we have in like 10 years. 20? Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Dark, Bitcoin Gold, Bitcoin Dark Cash, Bitcoin Dark Gold, Bitcoin Dark Gold Cash ... I'm just still missing other cool coins, like "The Real Bitcoin", "Bitcoin Classic" etc.
Anyways, only Bitcoin will survive in the long run.

This is true, just like what happened in august with bitcoin cash. Though probably not all wallets would support this free coin/airdrop. But a lot of exchanges would surely credit this airdrop like bittrex.

Any information to verify this statement.   

" Those holding BTC during the fork (from Oct 25th to Nov 1st) will be eligible for free BitcoinGold."

Thanks 

Yes this is true. A fork by definition means you will get the same balance of bitcoin gold in your existing bitcoin addresses.
This is true? BCH and bitcoin gold? May be we have more than one coin from BTC

Thanks.  Could you suggest the best place to hold at the time, if a fork were to occur or do we need to wait until confirmation and announcements upon who will adopt.   
you have two choices each with risk and benefits:
1. hold bitcoin in a wallet that you are the only one having the private key. for example a paper wallet, hardware wallet, desktop wallets like core or electrum,...

the risk is that you will have to download the other coin (BTG wallet) which may be malicious, with bugs or lots of other issues and also risk waiting a long time for confirmations, and wait a long time for exchanges to list the coin and enable deposits before you can transfer the coins there and dump.

benefit is that you will be holding your "bitcoin"s safe. and you will be in full control of bitcoin and any airdrop that comes to you.

2. send your bitcoin to an exchange that promised to credit you your airdrops.
it is like BCH. bittrex promised to credit and they did it on time and well enough.

the risk is that you will be keeping your coin on an exchange. and they will control the airdrop, they may change their mind even.

benefit is that you will be the first one dumping before the price tanks. you can even enjoy all the swings in the early days (buy in the dip and dump in dead cat bounce).

If this Fork was to be confirmed.  Would you agree in saying that, plenty of people will buy bitcoin and be holding BTC leading up to the Fork just to get the equivalent in BitcoinGold.   ?   
that is a possibility, yes.
although i don't think it will have big effects on bitcoin price though.

How true is this bitconGold, I don't see it making waves like BCH. There is not much news about it. More like a rumor.

Do you remember the previous fork this year when bitcoin split into two and that is BTC and BCH. Those who have a btc on the exchanges have received an equivalent amount of BCH on their balance after the fork. The same thing will happen to the fork , after the fork those who have balance on the exchanges will also receive the same amount of coins in the form of BTC Gold.
If that's the case then I guess time to party as the fork is near and we are ready to get the free BTC gold in our wallets.
I prefer to keep my BTC on Bittrex as I did the last time when BTC was forked and I got BCH in my bittrex wallet.
The advantage of keeping BTC on exchanges is that when we get free BCH or BTG its quite easy to trade it quickly on the exchange.

Now it's the BTC forking sound. This could be true. Some people are beginning to do the movements. Everyone pays attention.

Sweet. Do you just have to have a balance in a wallet that isn't on a trading site and we get another Bitcoin offshoot free money drop?

 Cool Cool Cool

Yes you just need a balance in a wallet from which you own the privatekey, so no exchange wallet for example.
