the total hash is already too high for a decent profit? Network Hashrate 93.57 MSol/s now
where are all these SOLs comming from ? no other equihash coin has dropped hash rate to correspond with the BTG fork i dont get it

Yup, I just got off BTG. The first hour or 2 was really good profit, everything beyond that is just waste. Go back to your default coin. For example, in the first hour of BTG mining, I was getting like 7$ for a single 1060 I left on NH for equihash. People just went crazy on renting hash power for BTG.

So is suprnova safe? I see the non official claim that everything is good but I have no idea who to believe at this point. How hard is it to get an official confirmation? What pools are the ones that are screwed and which pools are okay? Seems silly to keep mining at this point but I going to keep going down the toilet bowl and hope all my suprnova earnings won’t dissapear.
On the BTG slack channel, they seem to be recommending http://btgpool.pro/ Anyone tried this?
yes, so far it is the only pool that paid to me (at least if the block explorer does not lie). btgmine.org is a mystery: they accept workers, but they did not pay anything so far and did not update their site, so either the still use testnet or scam miners.
Yes, what a mess indeed. I rather suspect that everything I've mined up to now will come to nothing.

Trying to download their app tells me their app is still in development.
Have 2 NVidia 1060 GPUS tho the Nvidia miner that the pools all link to says that it can't find any devices to use.
Gave up trying to tweak things so staying with Mining ETH for now !
what a mess...
some pools are down, some empty, some work but provide no feedback

Anyone able to give us a guide to solo mining this shit?
So Coinomi still showing that BTG blockchain not launched and pool.gold look incompetent at best (scam at worst). Any recommendations on a trustworthy wallet and pool that does work for BTG?
My share count on pool.gold flucuates between 15 shares and 400 shares on every refresh. Not holding my breath here.
yup, something weird ongoing.
we are stopping all our mining on BTG, until the mess is cleared up
I have almost 4k valid shares in my miner, but my suprnova balance: Confirmed: 0.0145 BTG

Update on Coinomi:

Update: $BTG is still syncing, 60K blocks to go, in the meantime you can send your coins to Coinomi, you will have full access to them once the blockchain is fully synced. #BitcoinGold #BTG

Suprnova just came back online go check it out here is what they said
Suprnova's BTGCoin (BitcoinGold) Pool // Algo: equihash // Payout Scheme: PPLNS // LIVE !
Pool is now up and running fine, some minor corrections (Stats/Hashrate/Slow frontend) will be done when dust settles, it's all good.
Be aware that there's currently a chain-split happening and suprnova's chain could be "declared" as the wrong chain by the dev-team. However, it's the longest chain so usually it should be okay, it's advisable to not invest in mining until the devs give out an official statement. (Watch Twitter)
UPDATE: It seems our chain is correct.
Stratum-PORT IS: stratum+tcp://btg.suprnova.cc:8816 Nicehash: 8862

This is a real mess. Suprnova is the longest chain, but it has 100% of hashrate for it's chain. I.e. it's not syncing to any other nodes (from their own stats).
I think I'll not mine at all until we have clarity on where to mine, actually. Even solo mining on any chain now is a risk because you never know which will be declared official.
I've been mining on the official pool, but it has not released any payments and my shares have not been increasing for a few hours now.
I suggest everybody plays it safe at this point.

Well actually the real messed up ones are Bitcoin Gold developers.
I am not sure, seems like coinomi is messed up also look what they said on twitter:
"coinomi @CoinomiWallet 8h8 hours ago
The Bitcoin Gold team is currently having difficulties bootstrapping the $BTG blockchain. Once these issues are resolved, #BitcoinGold will become available to all #Coinomi users who will then be able to store, send, receive and trade their BTG without any further action."

i have been solo mining like mad since the 'launder' I mean launch, 12 hours ago,
Great to hear that everyone is going down the wrong path, I rolled by own block-chain, and I know its correct and my miner's are cracking out shares on the proxies at 1ms, unlike the 500ms on btg.suprnova.cc
The other pool.gold is seriously fucked and that btgpool.pro, they don't even know what block's they're on,
I tried them all, and I'm sticking with solo, until its completely worthless.
What R they going to do unwind shit back to the 'fork' or post pre-mine?
The problem is the DEV's never worked with anybody, they kept it all a secret, how to mine, how to do solo, how to proxy,
The worst is "HOW TO DOWNLOAD the fucking block-chain, fuck a book could be written on the arcane magic tricks required'
The solo mining I got all mine working two weeks ago, sure glad I did I didn't have to fuck with any of the proxy's or miners, they were all tested, the only problem was getting a good block chain 100% finished so I could 'getblocktemplate' and start up my proxy's and miners.
Can you shed some light as to how you are solo mining?
Also what wallet are you currently using?
Regards
I created my wallet at https://btgwallet.online
Is it possible this is invalid? Looking at https://btgexp.com/search
It says it's not a valid address...
hmm?

That’s what worried me
The explorer has never worked in the past 3 weeks, pool.gold was never validating addresses, should be interesting to go back to btg.suprnova.cc and enter a shit address and see if they take it,If you look at btgpool.pro you will see guys mining at 200k sols with addresses like 'GX', these fools don't have a clue that all thier hash is going to the house, a good pool would kill the cmd-line, but not these assholes running BTG infrastructure they're counting on idiots, easy money ...
Just wait until people start transferring money, if no address validation, it means the newbies don't even get their hands held.
Easy come easy go.
I bitched like hell 4 weeks ago at github.com/btcgpu about the lack of verification,they told me to fuck off, they didn't care then, and they don't care now. These aren't normal people running this shit, these are criminals.

Let me tell U all a little secret, if the website say's BTG*.* its all part of the scam, the only honest ppl at this party is btg.suprnova.cc
What creeps me out about these online walllets is they offer the 'brain-wallet', GREAT I love that shit, soon as my solo-mining is no longer worth my while I'm pulling out my brainflayer, I have already written a BTG block-parser, so it will take about 5 minutes of python to get all the G addresses with value, I build my chain with tx so I got all the balances on everybody, then off to my brain flayer and my 200gb rain-bow table and going to be mining me some g-address,
Just got to love all this easy money
