Thanks for answering pawel.

I see that binance is trading BTG. I might move the amount there.

What is the best way to handle that? Withdraw it? and if yes, how?

Yes, withdrawal is your best and only option. The answer to "how?" is in the text you've quoted (4th paragraph).

No idea what the minimum withdrawable amount is (I don't use Bittrex anymore), but I don't think it's OK for them to still require minimum withdrawal amount for delisted coins, especially when you can't even sell them. They should only be charging network fees.

If you can't withdraw due to your balance being less than the minimum required, you could deposit the missing amount and then withdraw (assuming depositing is still allowed).

I got an email from Bittrex:

As a valued Bittrex customer, we wanted to inform you that on November 5, 2018, we are retiring wallets that do not have markets, including Bitshares (BTS), Bitcoin Gold (BTG), and Bitcoin Private (BTCP). Our records indicate that you have a balance for at least one of the wallets being retired.
 
To keep your BTS, BTG or BTCP assets, you must withdraw your balance before Monday, November 5, 2018. After this date, your assets will be unrecoverable.
 
Wallet removals are a routine part of our ongoing platform management for performance and operational efficiency. For additional information read the related support article at: https://support.bittrex.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001391586
 
To withdraw your tokens, please login to https://www.bittrex.com and click Wallets. Next, you will need to search for the impacted token and click the withdrawal icon to open the withdraw dialog. Then, you will be able to withdraw your balance. If you have any issues withdrawing your balance before the November 5, 2018 deadline, immediately file a support ticket at: https://support.bittrex.com.
 
Please note if your balance is below the minimum withdrawal amount for the wallet, you will not be able to withdrawal it.
 
For additional information about this process, review the Bittrex Market and Token Removal Policy support article at: https://support.bittrex.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000474232-Bittrex-Market-Token-Removal-Policy
 
Thank you,

I do have some BTG. Not a serious amount but I see no reason why to gift it to them. What is the best way to handle that? Withdraw it? and if yes, how?

thanks
