"A bit hidden"??

You're dealing with very technical people on these forums..
Programmers, web designers, system admins, etc..

If it's hidden take a screenshot and show it to everyone..

Ever heard of "PIC, OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN!"? This is exactly what I'm talking about.

Stop trying to sound smarter than everyone here..

lol ok n00b. Thanks for your valuable input. Your intellect is on par with your # of posts.

In my opinion, everything is possible in our semi-virtual world. Otherwise, how to explain even before the hard fork and the appearance of a coin bitcoin gold officially as a result of a split with an orogenic bitcoin, its trade on the Yobit exchange at a price of 460 dollars? After all, bitcoin gold still does not exist?

I think the main issue here is I'm unclear, and not using the correct terminology. Apologies... I'm trying to sort this out, and am still confused, obviously.

Ok, so I use blockchain to store my wallet.

I notice that I'm able to access a hidden away part of my profile on the website to access Bitcoin gold, and I notice my balance of BTC has remained in tact..

It appears that I now own both BTC and bitcoin gold?

This makes sense, because my wallet would contain the same data on both blockchains. Therefore, I'd be able to access the wallet on both blockchains and send or receive from each while not affecting the other.

Am I missing something here? I've been reading about some people saying that blockchain.info will be converting everthing to bitcoin cash, which of course I don't.

Sorry, but it seems to me that you have misunderstood something. Or you just didn't explain it well?
How can you see Bitcoin Gold in the blockchain.info wallet when it doesn't exist yet? Maybe you mean Bitcoin Cash (BCH)?
And why would blockchain.info hide that from you?

The truth is that blockchain.info has enabled its users to withdraw or exchange the BCH that they got after the last fork. As far as Bitcoin gold is concerned, we still have to wait for it. They will probably allow us to withdraw that in a similar way.

If you are in a hurry, you can always export your private keys and import them into the Bitcoin gold wallet when it's available.

Wasn't trying to be dramatic. it is a bit hidden, though.

So, with 6 hours to go, is there anywhere I can look to track what percentage of the network is implementing the 2X?

Piecing together various threads, it's still not clear to me how this is all shaking out.

Why don't you just go by the easy way ?
Download electrum and send your bitcoins to that wallet because you must have access to the private keys of your address that has bitcoins in order to be part of the snapshot.

This sounds a bit dramatic that it's a hidden part. If they haven't announced it officially, it doesn't exist.

Bitcoingold clearly stated the following on their website:

Any secure Bitcoin wallet that gives the user exclusive control of the cryptographic private keys is a suitable location to store your coins prior to the October 25 fork. Some wallets may offer you direct access to your BTG, while others may require you to take additional technical steps. Verified wallets that support BTC and BTG side-by-side will be listed on the Bitcoin Gold home page. We will publish guides for retrieving BTG from the most popular wallets, including Bitcoin Core, Electrum, Mycelium, hardware wallets, paper wallets, and more.
