Does anybody know if there is a minimum of Bitcoin that need to be deposited into the wallet in order to receive Bitcoin Gold after the fork?

Another fork? Why? Is this just other coins trying to piggyback on bitcoin. I suppose it will still be profitable as people will still trade in it.
It is just another rebellious currency that wants to demonologies mining and even with that it is obvious it won't have any support of the miners apparently.

These are some things we cannot help as it is right now as we will keep seeing some rebellious currency out of bitcoin like this even in future but I see them as another means to just make some profit and even those behind the coin know and wont still give up support for bitcoin. In coming years, they will just be as good as another altcoin in the lower chain.

I found this thread on reddit about bitcoingold, and it wasn't very complementary:

https://www.reddit.com/r/BitcoinMarkets/comments/757l70/here_is_why_bitcoingold_is_shady_and_a_scam_you/

It looks like there is a big premine.

I'd urge everyone to read the thread before getting too committed.

Wallets which let you hold your private key will give you a chance to hold bitcoin gold. After the hardfork, if you are holding your bitcoin in your wallet and you are holding the private key of that wallet, you can collect your bitcoin gold by insert the private key into supporting bitcoin gold wallets. Here are few wallets that you can use to hold your bitcoin : electrum, bitcoin core, multibit
Also, I believe that bittrex will support bitcoin gold and allow users to have their bitcoin gold if they have bitcoin on bittrex wallet

Frankly I don't believe they will be succeed. BCH is alive just because have pretty good support of BTC miners. I think BCH as well as upcoming bitcoin gold will die next 1-2 years.
It might gain more popularity for Bitcoin after this is all finished. There's going to be more airdrops and there will be people wanting more Bitcoins.

If you really believe what you're saying here you're just a fool (sorry for my harsh language). You're basically saying you want more 'bitcoins' aka bitcoin copies to be created out of thin air? This is not sustainable at all.
I also feel like those chains will become irrelvant in the near future. Hopefully 2x is the last hurdle before we can finally work on start working on getting bitcoin mainstream.

I don't have any hopes for this fork. This is just another marketing happening, I'm more likely to invest in altcoins that will have been dumped for this before they go back up.

That's the reason why this may not even get to the value of bitcoin cash IMHO. They are not going to spread/distribute the coins for free and that may prove to be a reason for the lack of support because I haven't seen/heard of any exchanges/wallets to have said anything about supporting/listing bitcoin gold. Just another way to make money by those who were not satisfied with BCH and are interested to board the train this way. They are hyping it hard just to get the attention of the market to spike it up once listed.
If they are not to distribute free coins then they have no chance to support people. Bitcoin cash is kept on the market only because many have the coins and people keep them in the hope that they will ever rise in price. So did the Americans with the dollar after world war II. The consequences we see now. The dollars is at all.

I`m not sure that is the main reason of dollar success(That americans kept them in the hope that they will ever rise in price).  Smiley Wink

Hello,

Does anybody know which wallets plan to support the Bitcoin Gold (BTG) friendly fork on October 1st? And what, if anything, should be done by the user?

Just follow this https://twitter.com/btcgpu you will get your answer. The Fork will be held on 25th October and Bitcoin holder will receive BitcoinGold in first November. Hold BTC on 10.25 get free BTG on 11.1. I am confusing about where can I keep my Bitcoin for the fork?

Well supposedly my bitcoin CASH is still on my orig bitcoin chain (bitcoin core) as I did not go thru the process of moving it off since the snapshot...thus if you leave the wallet alone

(stall) you can probably get by. Myself, I don't want to convert the snapshot on any fork to crypto in that would be, imho, a 'taxable event' for the IRS at the snapshot date. I'm hoping

if I just frigging leave it alone, the IRS will treat it like a stock split you sell it you pay 20% capital gains after a year and a day etc (2013 IRS guidelines on cryptocurrency)

Just because people are forking and tossing supposed $$$ at my blockchain (the bitcoin cash snapshot is 280 bucks I think) does not mean I have to move it yet.

or so I assume....for now


Interesting take on the matter.

So you plan to hold a year and hope you can still sell it then and only have to tax 20%?
How high would be taxes for Americans if you sold right away? Isn't that probably the better choice considering there is a high chance BCash will drop significantly within a year?

As far as I know coins are credited when importing private keys in their wallet, but it is very unreliable to give your keys to an unauthorized application. Some exchanges (for example bitterex) will distribute BTG.
Nice coin

It has a suspicious future in my opinion, I'll also go with popular altcoins.

is there any significance that this fork will help btc original to gain more value? i really wanted to know since i was mistakenly understand how bcc works and i'm now confuse why another btc will live as btc-gold, market and newbies will really confuse about this and for sure it will be hang along road same thing with bch.
