Topic: Bitcoin Gold (BTG) - page 24. (Read 104147 times)

I'm with you mate, but please bear in mind that BTG (unfortunately) lost its reputation after a stream of security problems.
BitFlyer is taking advantage of that.

The only important thing to do is to bind them to this cristalline endorsement from BTG:
https://bitcoingold.org/vulnerable-wallets/

After this we can signal BitFlyer for unfair commercial practice.
Which I've done already.

what is normal BTG transaction time? Confirmations Block 505429 waiting 3 hours...!?

They are just out right stealing BTGs there is no excuse for not crediting people's account.

due to the decrepitude of BTG blockchain, and the lack of security of BTG wallet (malware included apparently in the binaries)

BitFlyer has still not decided to credit BTG to BTC holders...

this whole project sucks

BTG node seems like a joke .I can't even get it to sync despite trying several different ways.

• I've tried copying my BTC  full nodes block/rev files from the blocks dir to the oct24 or whatever date to the btg node block/rev files  (same as I did with BCH) , the  BTG node won't even start then, segfault/coredump. Real nice.
• I've tried to let it sync form scratch with and without bootstrap option
• i've tried bootstap with force connect option to my full btc node, that half works, gets to about may 12 2012 before it hangs and stops.
• I've tried opeing the upload ports for BTG so other nodes can see I'm willing to relay and not just a drain on other nodes. I see the peers come and go in the debug window and like they dn't like me for some reason and after downloading a few blocks I end up with no outbound peers connected over time.

I've plenty of upload and download bandwidth and have several other crypto nodes running and never really  had any issues.

What's it take to get your btg node going? Is this just junk software? Last I check there was only 24 nodes running for BTG.
 I'm start to get the distinct feeling BTG doesn't want the avg. joe to be running a full node.

Anybits has enabled support on Bitcoin Gold. Platform is fully operational.

Bitcoin Gold is a fork of bitcoin just like Bitcoin Cash. One of the notable changes is that they have changed algorithm to Equihash which makes it asic resistance and its a memory intensive algorithm. The idea is to bring back GPU mining plus some other changes.

This is the same for other forks. Bitcoin diamond for example forked 3-4 weeks ago but some exchanges didn't credit it and they won't credit this for sure. Superbitcoin forked as well and we don't have information still.

A bit redundant to say "we have high hopes for the future", of course you have high hopes for anything you have an interest or stake in. And that is the huge difference between all these Bitcoin forks and Bitcoin. Bitcoin will never have someone appearing on Yahoo finance and talking up the network. This is the kind of decentralization Bitcoin Gold is supposedly after? I would think doing road trips to remote corners of the world and promoting the original ideals is what they should be doing, since that is their goal.

Oh wait, maybe they can only go to places where people actually own computers. #NoCPUNoVote?

BTG is just to earn money and its not make for mining users.

If you had BTC in the exchanges the chances are that you will not receive any BTG. Only those exchanges that mentioned they would support it would be able to provide you with BTG.

Its best to store BTC in your own wallet (software or hardware), if you wish to gain from some of the forks.

Some exchanges as Bitstamp did not communicate anything about getting BTG for whose who held BTC at the time BTG was forked. Any ideas what would be in this situation?

The people who deny BTG will thrive are the same ones spreading FUD over other promising coins that are now going 2x 3x...10x

The Bitcoin Gold Community Update

Founder of Bitcoin gold Jack Liao was live on yahoo news https://finance.yahoo.com/news/stocks-push-higher-financial-retail-stocks-leading-163257281.html, we have high hopes for the future of BTG.
As always stay tuned on our social media networks for the lastest updates and annoucements.

True on that saw on marketcap that there are planning several more from diamond to red but this will all shadow then. Not gonna be good at this point and many will think that this is just another big one scam coin or shit coin. Maybe this and many other bitcoin fork coin will come to life after some time like cash was.

Not gonna say this will happen to this one but maybe it will follow same path.

BTH? By the way, according to rumors BTG will be added at Bithumb the largest crypto exchange. But Kim.Jung On plans to launch another missile on Sunday. Will the mighty Koreans pump BTG?

Growing Bitcoin price overshadowed popularity of all its forks. Recently we were amazed by results that show clones of Bitcoins. Now internet mass media isn’t so active in talking about BTG or BTH.

I'm not wasting my time mate, please allow me to explain why as it is in the interest of all of us.

My posts are for people with lesser knowledge to avoid them getting fooled by actual implementation of BTG. I.e.: save your flat for when BTG will be updated (read below).

And my post are for BTG crew as well: they have still time to make BTG a community driven and meaningful crypto.
I'm showing them that the actual route is not appealing to the investors. I warned them about that and other things well in advance of November the 12th on their Slack channel, as a day-1 supporter of this crypto .

Another stream of forks is coming which will compete with BTG: i.e. Bitcoin Silver and Bitcoin Uranium.

More than any other consideration, it is worth noting that in the 24hrs Volume ranking according Coinmarketcap, BTG is 15th at writing time with $212.815.000.
Well behind ZCash ($305.346.000) but also QTum ($362.217.000) Cardano ($401.779.000) Stellar ($426.203.000) and EOS ($753.837.000).
Bithumb holds a 48.41% share with the mere BTG/KRW trading pair.
Message is adamantine: BTG folks did not achieve a great success in spreading the BTG word around the world. Volume Geolocation of BTG is limited.

Mining wise: MonaCoin (Lyra2REv2) for an 1080Ti rig (as mine) gives you noticeable more than BTG. There is also another Equihash crypto and other algos more rewarding.  BTG comes 6th. Besides that, the best Equihash miner is closed source and the other ones are NOT....

Do you have android device and your address does not begin with 3?
Then:
1 - move your coins to another address.
2 - let your blockchain wallet show you qr code of the private key (find guide how to)
3 - use coinomi to scan qr code (sweep that key )
