Are you sure bitcoin gold has no replay protection? I kept hearing from every sources I come across that bgold has replay protection, and that it will be just a normal fork like bcash was. The fork that has no replay protections is the segwit2x fork, but that one will onle happen in November. As usual I will take my time to analyze all these things. Don't know if it is a scam or not. If it gets safe to claim them I will do it, and then I will just sell them if they ever get listed on exchanges, so I'm not really worried about this.

I heard a lot of opinions that bitcoin gold scam. The real hardfork is segwit2x, not bitcoin gold

Hype might take BTG quite high.

Definitely killing off the altcoins at the moment. (Good time to buy)

I also read the reddit article and really had no idea what to make of it, if it turly is a scam how can it have gained so much traction and publiticy in such a short time and why had nobody else from all the hundreds of crypto journalists made a big thing about it already?

I am not really interested in it myself and certainly wouldn't sell any of my recently completed ICO altcoins to jump on bitcoin.

I have a bitcoin core wallet on my own computer and if I suddenly find I have an additional coin I will sell it, that's about as much as the excitement gets on  Bitcoin Gold for me

Having it premined makes it a scam, so I agree, Bitcoin Gold is a scam and deserves to be in the trash can.

It could well be - i mean there are absolutely no guarantees when it comes to altcoins that are posing as bitcoin forks that add no real value to the bitcoin ecosystem whatsoever. They are most likely to be profit making schemes for the founders, if not just an outright scam.

What you said was very interesting. The premine that they attempted was a very large amount.

I'm not sure - i mean, you get free coins. But i wouldn't put any of my own money in.

Yes get the free coins and and dump them or keep them as you wish. But I wouldn't put any money in that.

BTG is the reason most altcoins are losing terrain and BTC is soaring.. and this might continue for the next couple of weeks. There's lots of expectations on this. After the ups and downs of Bitcoin Cash (now getting wrecked), people expect to be able to make good bucks on 25th October expecting exactly what happened with BCC.
But I doubt it. BTG is structurally different from BCC (weaker IMO) and arrives in a moment where BTC is stronger than ever in terms of being the 'one and only'. All in all I would say BTG isn't a scam but perhaps sort of a cash grab.

I don't think they are scam too. I suppose that so huge premine is not healthy for crypto at all. But I would be glad if they are succeed.

Nope I don't think its scam since its free and the people will dictate on this on what would the fate goes for the bitcoin gold and if people selects to hold it then this alt will earn a good future but if people would do a receive dump schemes then this coin will be sorry. But we should be careful since might there are some manipulators that will manipulate it and we will be trap at the peak price if we buy immediately.

At the end of the day it's market who decides what goes up and what goes down. People were saying BCC was a scam but look at it now, it's stable and well above ETH price at the moment.

Everyone says its a scam and it sure as hell is starting to look like one. However, BCH was considered a scam and many people profited big time from that so I'm sure you can still make some money. I just wouldn't hodl.

i've got 2 things to say here:

1. replay protection:
the coin is not yet released that you are talking about it. it is not even close to being released yet. for all you know they will implement a strong replay protection like BCH.

2. premine:
that makes this an altcoin like hundreds of other altcoins. scam? if that is the criteria then ETH is the biggest scam in history of altcoins, it had 72,000,000 coins premined and that was almost all the ETH tokens in existence.
i am not defending BTG though, i am just pointing out that premining is a perfectly common thing among shitcoins like ETH and BTG and all the others like it. and apparently community doesn't consider them as "scams".
