The reasons why BCH did, which I already explained here, won't repeat for BTG.
Just as a recall: there are nil chances that another band of NYA failed fork refugees (exchanges and miners) sharing in this case the same algo as BTG will find it an appetible option.
Best option being that it will be a mine and dump coin like PXC and other ones.
Anyway BCH is approaching levels up to mid of closing level of Nov 10th, FYI
doesn't BTG have some advantages over BCH ? like being ASIC resistant and having a more inclusive community, etc. ?
What you mean by inclusive? Just asking.
To kick away any misunderstanding: I was a Day-1 believer in BTG. I WAS.
Anyway, after all of the cock-ups BTG has made -directly AND/OR indirectly- it is no longer a matter of advantages (true or false does not matter here), but it is all about lost trust.
We can keep on talking about anything, but trust had been lost about the BTG development and the way it had been handled. These are the feelings around.
And let me say this once again, I believed in that coin.
Last but not least: the common reasoning about a BTC alternative had always HAD the pivotal point in the Algo or Block Size or Segwit (whichever Segwit it was).
Three of them in a row have been shown to be wrong. One of them having been honourably called-off (before gross-failure), with the full lot of Headquarters acknowledging that they missed to really understand in proper times the point (but I'd like to remember to all of you that they should have seen their own predicament in the very moment they denied any Replay Protection, thus optin' for being a "network starvation attack").
Point is NOT miners, is NOT Algo and NOT even jummy airdrops: point is Consensus. Point are Nodes. The two latest BTC Forks had clearly done their own utmost in order to demonstrate all the possible about aiming to create private playgrounds and nothing more. Nodes numbers clearly show that. Bitcoin Cash at least understood that point and it is currently rewarded for that.
inclusive as in BTG was being promoted as the "friendly fork", no sharp ideological differences, no hostile takeover attempts, just a nice dividend. These forks should better be worth something otherwise BTC is running the risk of becoming saturated, as it had in the beginning of 2017. People were starting to realize it's much more probable for a promising 10mil market cap coin to make 100x, than BTC, who already has 10 billion+ valuation, to go to 1 trillion USD + valuation in the short run...
That's why the forks appeared, and BTG seems to have some innate advantages over BCH, especially in terms of mining (although the pre-mine hurt its reputation a lot I admit), just wondering why it's not enjoying any rally whatsoever...
