I hope the opportunity is still there, because of the time to hardfork lived count hours. But if there is chance to get some BTC gold it would be very profitable, because definitely price coins this would be nice

can not be ascertained also about the price is clear about the BTC gold. so for now maybe the right decision is to hold it, until this price becomes good.

It is bad for me that I decided to hold my bitcoin on trezor. Trezor will support BTG next month and I'm that the price will be cheap when the time I get my BTG.

Is it ok now move my bitcoin to other wallets so that I can still claim my BTG?

Is it still possible to get btc gold after hard fork on bittrex? As I know before hardfork you could have that chance.

Now it is not possible to claim the Bitcoin Gold as the hardfork have happened on the said blockchain before the date so now it is useless to transfer for free BTG coin so it is much better to keep the coin in the wallet itself is much better. I think that BTG will be failure and very soon this coin will be dead

Not sure what you mean buddy... but if it's possible to get BTG and then just dump it ... isn't that better then not get it at all??

Not free Bitcoin gold. But you can purchase some from yobit.

We all could know that BTG is a poorly organised project.It was earlier said that the hard fork date would be october 25th.But,coinbase claims that the hard fork has already taken place.But the project's source code is still not available publicly.

Every thing related to BTG remains a mystery.Till now,no wallet has announced that it would support BTG.Bittrex is the only exchange which has officially announced that it would support both hard fork and BTG.Surprisingly,yobit exchange had BTG coins listed even two days before.We know very well that most of the scam coins are listed in yobit.

So,it would be better to move your BTC to bittrex exchange to claim free BTG coins or else just stay away from this chaos by just holding your BTC in your electrum wallet itself.

Official site of bitcoin gold https://btcgpu.org/ But it is down right now.

If you are holding your bitcoin in electrum like wallet than you don't have to worry about anything. Just wait for further instructions or guide on how to claim free bitcoin gold on their bitcoin gold's official site using your private key.

Don't move any of your bitcoin from electrum for next few days (before and after few blocks when fork will occur).

The fork has occured... There is no need to refrain from using your bitcoin wallet wallet... But if want to claim your Bitcoingold, it might be a good idear to split your coins before actively spending BTC (this way it's easyer to track your unspent outputs on both chains).
The fork happened at blockheight 491407,  at the time of writing, we're at blockheight 491488 (bitcoin blockchain), so the fork happened 81 blocks ago

How?
Create a new BITCOIN wallet, empty out your old wallet by creating a transaction using all unspent outputs controlled by your old wallet to fund a deposit address on your new wallet.
AFTER this transaction confirmed on the bitcoin network, export your private keys from electrum and import them into a bitcoingold wallet. If, after a potential rescan (depending on which BCG wallet you use, i don't know which wallets exist), the balance remains 0, it means the transaction on the bitcoin blockchain must have been replayed. you have to start over.
If there is a balance in your BCG wallet, you can deposit these funds to the deposit address of your account on an exchange and exchange your BTC for a non-premined coin Wink.

When?
I wouldn't know. Whenever you think it's the best time to maximise your profit?
