Bitcoin Gold Daily Update – Replay Protection fully implemented
Nov 1, 2017 | Development
In order to ensure the safety of the Bitcoin ecosystem, Bitcoin Gold has implemented full replay protection, an essential feature that protects users’ coins from being spent unintentionally.
Bitcoin Gold has just implemented a solution called SIGHASH_FORK_ID replay protection. It is an effective two-way replay protection mechanism that enforces a new algorithm to calculate the hash of a transaction so that all new Bitcoin transactions will be invalid on Bitcoin Gold blockchain and vice versa. This makes replaying transactions impossible.

I cant claim my btg with https://claim-btcgpu.org/. Anyone else problems with this too?

OK that was fake. 

Just another copycat scammer. Stay away from these!

Anytime something asks for your private key, you should be suspicious.  But the only way to claim Bitcoin Gold is by your Bitcoin private key.  It is highly recommended you move your Bitcoin away from that private key before using it claim BitCoin Gold.  If it is a scam wallet, they will steal both your BTG and your BTC.  Be careful.  

Edit, from the post above, it looks like this might be a Scam wallet.  I'd avoid it until there is a community vetted open source wallet available.

Hello, I can see the BTG is listed on the binance.com, bitfinex and so on, but I do not know if we can withdraw the btg from these exchanges, anyone can tell me?

this is a link to a fraudulent twitter

How long will the testnet run? More like 1-2 hours, 1-2 days or 1-2 weeks?

THIS IS A FRAUD. BEWARE !!!

I have both BTG and BTC. Should I hold both or is exiting from BTG a good idea??? I'm confused.

Is there any local desktop wallet for it?

there is no suspicion, it really works

According to that link there is now a BTG wallet available: http://btgolds.org/

However, it asks for your private key so I'm highly suspicious.

Tell please, when Bittrex is planning to send BTG. They did the snapshot of btc on 24 October, right?

What the hell?

We are on time! Tomorrow will happen the largest worlwide public testnet. And the blockchain will be nearly launched.



i believe when it's running 

Whatever that will happen, I don't see any massive thing different from what we have seen and the amount of exchange that will join have already been listed on their website while the trade is already taking place in majority of the platform what I fear is what the price will say tomorrow if by this time, its already trading at 0.02+btc. The only thing we can all do is just to wait and watch out because of the individuals who will see this an another opportunity to rob people of their coin.

I think it will soon be supported on 1 November
 

no its only the TestNet which is officially launched tomorrow according to the official website

I second this. We'll have to wait and see.

Am sure that by the time BTG is launched officially tomorrow, then we can now see good news about exchangers and other news
