NOTE: I make no guarantees that this wallet is "safe"... it hasn't been updated in over 2 years! Shocked

Aside whether it's "safe" or not, it;s likely OP will encounter some problem since there are few open issues on github page.

All support BTG. Do some background checks before using any.

And use some kinds sandboxing or isolation such as firejail if you still have some concern.

I saw that electrumG isn't avalible for linux. And I doesn't want to run a full node with BTG core wallet. Is there any other safe wallet for linux?

You should be able to run ElectrumG "from source" in Linux... (tested using Ubuntu 18.04)

Download or clone the github repo: https://github.com/BTCGPU/electrum

Then, in the "base" folder created from that (where "setup.py" is located):

Install the dependencies:

Code:

sudo python3 setup.py install

Compile the icons:

Code:

pyrcc5 icons.qrc -o gui/qt/icons_rc.py

NOTE: if you get an error regarding pyrcc5 not being available... you'll probably need to run: sudo apt install pyqt5-dev-tools

Start ElectrumG:

Code:

./electrumg
