so far, its not really safe (nor possible untill november since the network is still not functional) to claim BTG unless you have your BTCs on an exchange. BTG still does not implemet rellay protection, which means you can lose your btc trying to claim btg. forget the shitty fork

Hi guys I knew you will just have to keep ur bitcoin inside a wallet that u holds the private key until the snapshot happens , now the snapshot is over , how do I claim my bitcoin gold? Everyone just say u will be getting it as long as you has the private key , but the problem is what should I do with my private key in order to get my bitcoin gold?
I've been struggling to find the answer , can any pros here mind to enlighten me?
Wait until November to get your Bitcoin Gold. There should be enough wallets out there that allow you to import your private key then.

In this way, you can also use some big trading platforms like bittrex or poloniex, they will give you official announcements about accepting bitcoin gold, so please wait. However, using a hardware wallet is always the safest option.

Yes there are several wallets that will give you bitcoin gold, but it is going to happen once that November starts, i mean, on november the 1st.
But it is risky mate, there are a lot of pishing sites who only wants your private key for free. how much bitcoin do you have in your main wallet? Bitcoin gold is below $100 right now, if you have one bitcoin, you will only receive $100.
If you have 0.10 bitcoins, you will receive ten dollars.. is it worth the risk?

For now you don't have to do anything until November 1 and be observant thereafter always check the official website or watch out for posts of only trusted members of the forum because instructions on how to go about it will be posted on the forum or their website. Also, Coinomi is another trusted multi currency wallet provider. You can google about them and the way to claim you BTG is already made available by them.

Go to their website first off. Once there, you need to use a wallet and upload your BTC private keys to access the corresponding Bitcoin Gold. You can then send it to any exchange to trade.

I think that the Bitcoin gold network will go public in November and only then you can claim your Bitcoin gold. You would simply need the private keys to the wallet in which you were holding Bitcoin at the time of the hard fork on 25th October. You can claim your Bitcoin gold by importing your Bitcoins with help of your private keys in various wallets which support Bitcoin gold like Freewallet, Coinomi etc. Your Bitcoin gold will automatically be credited in your wallet after the network goes public on November 1.
For any further information, refer to the official Bitcoin gold website https://bitcoingold.org/.

if your bitcoins are stored on exchange site they should give you bitcoin gold credited to your account.
if still on some wallet i advice you to wait till 1st Nov.

i findtill now i find only this wallet for bitcoin gold :
https://glatinum.info/
but i don't advice you to use it, as long as it's not safe to use wallet not officially supported.

Good luck!

Since November 1 those who have on wallet BTC can get BTG. This will give you the possibility of having a private key or a phrase for recovery — a seed. Such a phrase usually consists of 12 words in a certain order. Just check your BTC wallet!:)
