Yobit and Binance are supposed to support it

Please feel free to add more info about other exchanges
I heard bitfinex will also credit bitcoin gold to it's users.
Hitbtc will be credited and trading also will be allowed for it's users.
For bittrex it will only credit it's users and it will not enable trading for it's user's.
Coinbase as far now, is not supporting bitcoin gold, the bitcoin gold dev team have left a message for them on their site, so coinbase might change it's plans, otherwise no.

Bittrex has decided to support bitcoin gold:

https://support.bittrex.com/hc/en-us/articles/115002320451-Statement-on-Bitcoin-Gold-BTG-

Quote
If you have a Bitcoin (BTC) balance on Bittrex during the BTG snapshot block 491,407 occurring approximately on October 24, 3am PT (10am UTC), you will be additionally credited the equivalent amount of Bitcoin Gold (BTG) on a 1:1 basis. i.e. 1 BTC on Bittrex held during the on-exchange snapshot will get you 1 BTG.  BTC held on orders will also be credited.  Only the BTC held on your account is eligible for BTG.

Bittrex will close deposits and withdrawals of Bitcoin (including 2nd layer protocol XCP/OMNI and associated assets) 24 hours prior to the BTG snapshot block 491,407 occurring approximately on October 24, 3am PT (10am UTC). The wallet will remain closed until the on-exchange snapshot is complete. Trading will remain active during this time.

Bittrex will make all reasonable attempts to credit our users BTG but until we have a fully supported wallet, we can neither guarantee tokens or consider creating a market. We will continue to monitor the state of the codebase and network. We'd also like to encourage the BTG development team to reach out to us.

Binance will also support Bitcoin Gold, but you should double check with them first.

"Before the potential fork, Binance may suspend momentarily Bitcoin deposits and withdrawals.
If the hardfork happens, Binance would like to support any meaningful forks. We will decide the coin listing depending on the situation, our priority is to protect our customers funds.
If you are unsure on how to deal with the technical issues regarding the bitcoin forking, feel free to deposit your Bitcoins on Binance exchange in advance and we will handle it for you and ensure you will have all possible assets after the fork.
Thank you for your support!"

Here you see the statement of hitbtc about BTC Gold, they will credit and list it:
https://blog.hitbtc.com/hitbtc-announcement-on-bitcoingold-and-segwit2x/

And for german/european customers, here is statement from bitcoin.de in german:
https://www.coinforum.de/topic/7412-statement-von-bitcoinde-zu-bitcoin-gold-btg/
They will decide later if they list it, but for sure they will credit the customers their BTC Gold, but with a delay (may be in late november)

Thanks for sharing this, I was looking for an exchange during the hard fork period.

Bittrex has now announced supporting BTG as well, so I would stick with bittrex. (Source: https://support.bittrex.com/hc/en-us/articles/115002320451-Statement-on-Bitcoin-Gold-BTG-)

I didn't expect that bittrex would support bitcoin gold, I have a small balance on there, so nice news. Still waiting on news of kraken.com, normally they are quite quick at announcing such news (like they did with bitcoin cash), nevertheless I don't think they will support it


Yes would be good to hear from Kraken... .

Also cex.io is supporting and listing BTG:
https://blog.cex.io/news/segwit2x-bitcoin-gold-16616

As stated in the coinbase news BTG code is not open source..., I think it is not unlikely that BTG is one big scam. Just imagine most exchanges are adding it and there might be some code that allows the creators of BTG to hack into those exchanges..
Of course this is only speculation, but I think it would possible.

Can anyone explain this sentence "BTC deposits / withdrawals will be disabled in 67 hrs (24 oct)"?
I see it as that yobit will not accept the deposit and withdraw bitcoin in that time? it should be possible because the explanation will surely have a major impact on the state of the current bitcoin. I am so surprised if what I think is the true intent of the statement given by yobit.


i think is difference bitcoin cash release
all exchanger announcement can get bitcoin cash 1:1 holder bitcoin, if now only yobit can give statement, but nothing explain about give bitcoin gold to bitcoin holder

Coinbase has decided NOT to support bitcoingold:

Is Coinbase going to support Bitcoin Gold?

We operate by the principle that our customers should benefit to the greatest extent possible from hard forks or other unexpected events. However, safety and security are also important considerations for any asset supported by Coinbase.

At this time, Coinbase cannot support Bitcoin Gold because its developers have not made the code available to the public for review. This is a major security risk.

Coinbase's current priority is to add support for Segwit2x, followed by Bitcoin Cash. We will continue to monitor the development of Bitcoin Gold, and if its network proves to be both secure and valuable, Coinbase may decide to support it at a later date.

Coinbase/GDAX will not sell or keep Bitcoin Gold associated with customer Bitcoin for itself. Any Bitcoin Gold will remain securely stored on Coinbase. If Coinbase were to enable support for Bitcoin Gold at a future date, customers would be able to withdraw Bitcoin Gold associated with their Coinbase/GDAX Bitcoin balances at the time of the Bitcoin Gold fork.

They might be disabling bitcoin deposit and withdrawal because they will add bitcoin gold to their users according to total bitcoin they have at their account but snapshot of bitcoin gold will be taken only at 25 oct and yobit will move all bitcoin from user's bitcoin addresses to their cold wallet so that they can get real bitcoin gold at the time of snapshot.

Their bitcoin  deposit/withdrawal might open only after snapshot of bitcoin blockchain willl be taken on 25th oct.

i think they are afraid that bitcoin gold fork may cause some trouble for bitcoin blockchain also. things such as replay attacks come to mind since so far as i know bitcoin gold does NOT have replay protection YET. they have claimed to be working on implementing the same protection as bitcoin gold has but it still has not happened.

that may be the reason why they are going to disable things 24 hours before the fork!
it is an over kill if you ask me though.

Yobit is a small exchange - it won't have a major impact on the state of bitcoin.

Most of the big exchanges arn't bothering with gold because of the lack of replay protection.

I'm not even surprised. Yobit did the same with a bunch of ICOs I was looking for way before they were even released. They only care about the fees that they will earn from those IOU markets.

About other exchanges: A few big Brazillian exchanges released their statements or posted about how they will handle the BCG fork. Here is the TLDR for each of them:

- Braziliex will distribute the relative amount of BCG for each BTC that their users have at the moment of the fork.
- Foxbit won't support BCG because of the lack of replay protection. They will also release an official statement soon.
- Mercado Bitcoin and Walltime will release an official statement soon.

Why posting this in speculation mate? move it to service discussion, Bitcoin gold were supposed to fork in 10/25 or they are going to launch sooner?

They own the whole fork, not surprised if they say that Bitcoin gold launched a month ago. Yoshit will list anything, just pay for it and they will list it.
