Te coins themselves are worth xBTC. Selling them now would only enable you to profit on the premium in BTC which would be greater now than it would be then (after the fork) if the price of BTC were to rise as a result of it.
Personally I don't see the need to. The coins are wallets themselves so post-fork they'd have the value of BitcoinGold added to them which would add to the BTC price if you chose to sell after.
So in short, I'd advise you to keep them and if you want to buy more BTC now then by all means go for it.

I'm wondering the same, FattCatt.

Is this accurate?  Are the BTC coins held on wallets that have not given out the Bitcoin Gold worth a larger sum of money based on how much Bitcoin Gold is going for?  Example being if Bitcoin is $6k and Bitcoin gold is $500, your BTC is now valued at $6500?  Will it reflect that on hardware wallets?   Is that how it worked with Bitcoin Cash?

Yes, that's how it worked with Bitcoin Cash. Anything funded prior to 8/1/2017 has the BCC value as well.

Okay.  Sweet.  I was thinking I'd be missing out if I just held tight in a hardware wallet.  Thanks for confirming that.

I'm interested to see what the new coin ends up going for in exchange rate after about a month. BCC seems to be holding value around $300 but I suppose it's anyone's guess as to where things will be in 30 days.

BTG is new coin so if you want to take risk exchange all your money to it but it will be so risky trick with high income if work



BTC have better future than BTG

Completely depends on how many you have. The process is a pain to redeem/split & it reduces the value of the coin @ the same time. It’s been a nice bonus having BCH on pre-funded collectibles.
