As for this time, there is still no updates if there is a network available for the bitcoin gold like mentioned above. And if the developers of BTG have updates for the wallets, etc and there's a go button, then you can export the private keys of your blockchain wallet using the 12-word seed. And you can follow this
tutorial so you can get the private keys and export it to the compatible wallet for BTG.
Make sure that you sweep the funds of your blockchain wallet to another wallet that you hold the private keys before you export your private key on BTG's compatible wallet.
If you're talking about the wallets, they already have a few listed although most of them are for android and you can also run its full node. Updates are also listed on their site here
http://bitcoingold.org. They're doing great so far so the coin should be launched by Nov 1st.
The fork just got over, so is there any way to claim Bitcoin-Gold from the split ?
I am using blockchain.info wallet and they did let me to claim BCC from the last fork from their wallet itself.
There's no way to claim BTG at this time because there is no live BTG network. The only thing that happened was the UTXO snapshot that will become the UTXO set if/when the coin is actually launched. As it stands, the developers haven't been able to properly add replay protection, and everyone is waiting around. Once the network is launched, assuming there is replay protection, you can move your BTC to a new address and then import the original BTC address(es) into a BTG wallet.
It's really odd that so many exchanges launched trading for a coin that doesn't even exist yet. What happens if the Bitcoin Gold developers never even launch it? It seems legally precarious to allow people to buy imaginary coins.
Yah, I got confused for a second as why would they be trading it already. I just realized that they are just IOU's probably so withdrawals can't be made until the official release.
I think exchanges are doing this for profits again, letting people ride the hype train again even though theres nothing really. The devs are on
finishing phase so i doubt they'll back out particularly when the snapshot has been secured. I mean we all know they're gonna dump their
private premines lool.
