Looking ahead, Bitcoin may be due for another one. Come October 25th we may see another hard fork of the Bitcoin code to create Bitcoin Gold (BTG). This new faction basically wants to change the way Bitcoin can be mined, from a predominantly ASIC format over to GPU's instead, in an attempt to keep the control with the masses and not a few massive mining operations. This latest hard fork is a bit mysterious and the information about it is scarce and confusing (here is their website). Will you get free Bitcoin gold if you are holding Bitcoin in a supported location? If they pull it off, yes... but this is a great example of what happens when people stop agreeing on a mutual direction for a project.

What happens when the community all support a change to the code of a cryptocurrency? You get a hard fork that doesn't result in a new currency.

That was NOT the fact for BTG. So what you're nonsensing about?

And BTG is 21st by market cap  Cry

I see Bitcoin Gold is losing its positions. Despite the fact that BTG stopped its fall and started to grow slowly, it is still weak, as many people do not trust this fork of Bitcoin. It is not any kind of scam, but not the alt I would deal with.

I would add on top of that all the shills stationing here with stupid, useless and zero-crypto-knowledge posts, subtracting to BTG any value rather than adding to it.

On October 25th, the Bitcoin blockchain is set to hard fork and create a new cryptocurrency called Bitcoin Gold (BTG).Existing private keys holding a Bitcoin balance at that time will be credited with the same amount of Bitcoin Gold on November 1st, similar to how they received Bitcoin Cash at the beginning of August. A wallet for Bitcoin Gold may not be available in time, however, which could cause a delay of up to a few weeks before holders will be able to use the new coins.
The driving force behind Bitcoin Gold is a team of developers, miners, and other contributors led by Jack Liao, the CEO of Hong Kong mining manufacturer LightningAsic. His financial partner in the endeavor is known simply as Wubi, a Chinese mining tycoon and owner of Chinese Bitcoin news portal Jinse.com. The project’s anonymous lead developer goes by the name H4x3rotab, and several other developers and contributors can be found inside the project’s GitHub project and slack channel.
Deemed a “friendly fork” by the development team, many differences in this copy of Bitcoin make it less like Bitcoin Cash and more like a complimentary accessory to Bitcoin. H4x3rotab explained to Brave New Coin that there are “vested interests who benefit from blocking upcoming upgrades of Bitcoin by making hard forks like C-cash, D-cash, or SegWit4x and SegWit8x.”
His team’s plan to combat this ongoing attack is to have Bitcoin Gold take a similar, supporting role to Bitcoin, much like Litecoin did for the segwit upgrade when it deployed segwit first. However, unlike Litecoin, which has shorter block times and uses a mining algorithm that is different but still allows for ASICs, Bitcoin Gold “is also a real blockchain to pilot Bitcoin upgrades,” H4x3rotab says.

ASIC resistant coin, doesn't suffer from the notorious rivalry and infighting introduced by some other BTC forks, this is a guaranteed buy especially if it dips below 150 USD during this crypto tumble.

My opinion about BTG is quite skeptical. Of course it may not like many, but still I think that all the forks of bitcoin are by and large not needed. They do not do anything new, of course, maybe they were temporarily popular, while they were faster than bitcoin, but now, as everyone knows, bitcoin integrates lightning into the network. And now what? It remains only the mining. But in fact

Forks of bitcoin are money grab, get rich quick schemes by the devs. Especially United Bitcoin which basically stole everyone's coin with their very rigid qualification rules. Most are crap and should go away.

Forks are like that seem only first one was legit I mean on bitcoin cash. Everything else is just for scamming others dont believe that we will see anything else from upcoming fork from bitcoin and some that are announced for ethereum as well. It will be more hit and run for me cuz not many will be on some exchanges.

Then Hardfork in early August 2017 of Bitcoin cash, month / 11/2017 the next brother was born is Bitcoin Gold.
One of the main reasons to mention is the current Bitcoin facility change:

Part 1: Bitcoin Gold wants to change the way we train with Minning by improving training methods as well as helping the grid better. Exactly they want to remove the monopoly price monopoly of the ASIC chip.
Second: By reinventing the system, Bitcoin Gold wants to add more Bitcoin system inputs and make the Bitcoin Network more normal.
Great Bitcoin target of Bitcoin point is better than the high quality, override of a ty ty or organization.

But importantly it was born from Bitcoin, because of features like Bitcoin. Different major to self, philosophy.

So to get your personal Bitcoin Gold is just a kind of Altcoin, nothing special.  Smiley Smiley

FreeBitcoins.com has finished adding Bitcoin Gold to their digger program! (still, have to add a few links here and there on Monday)

You can check addresses to see if they qualify for BTG on their site easily.

FreeBitcoins.com has helped liquidate >210 BTG so far!  

I'm hodling a few of my BTG Cheesy

I am too, it's never a bad idea to have some BTG for a long run and just HODL.  Grin
