Is there any way of exploring Bitcoin addresses to see if there is any Bitcoin Gold associated with them?
I was moving BTC from various paper wallets around the time of the snapshot to my Ledger but I'm damned if I can find the right address with my Bitcoin Gold.
At the minute it's costing money to sweep wallets into Coinomi to check so was hoping there is another way to see where they are.

Disclaimer: it is understood that you'll be handling privvy keys not holding any BTC amount, as an extra safety measure.
FIRST: Send the whole BTC amount of the wallet holding BTC at fork time (24 of October) to another local wallet of yours on another PC.
Once done that, export the privvy keys from the original wallet. BTC won't be stolen.
If you don't understand what I'm talking about you'd better keep off.
1)Use Bither to import keys. It will tell you if a key holds a BTG amount. For free when I did. I guess it is still so.
2)Then send the amount to Bitpie's BTG address (after having created it).
This needs to be done for every single imported privvy key.
It will be considered as a transaction on BTG's blockchain, thus a fee will have to be paid, obviously enough. One tx for each privvy key. Sent from Bither to Bitpie's BTG address.
3)Finally, choose your exchange supporting BTG and send the BTG total from Bitpie to the BTG wallet of that exchange. Of course if you don't want to hold BTG.
That worked perfectly! Thanks very much.
