All paid signature campaigns should be banned.

From what I understand Bitcoin Gold has implemented full replay protection, equivalent to Bitcoin Cash.

The wallet I use, Trezor, posted they would not support Bitcoin Gold until they implemented replay protection. Since they did implement it to the satisfaction of Trezor they have now posted they will soon support it. As soon as they push out a new version of the firmware for the Trezor wallet with Bitcoin Gold support I expect to claim my Bitcoin Gold as easily as I claimed my Bitcoin Cash and then I will have to decide what to do with it: sell or hold. It is JAAC (Just Another Alt Coin) so I may sell it all. On the other hand I may buy some for my IRA as a long term hold just for the heck of it.

Didn't you hear? B2X was cancelled.

But canceled for now, not permanently.

Anyway that's not important, we were talking about replay protection for BTG.

I wanted to ask if you need special tricks for it to work , or you can just send the coins like they are separate blockchains? ( not affecting each other )

Is there a safe guide out there on how to claim Bitcoin Gold now that the replay protection was put in place?

If anyone can share the guide, please do and you will be greatly appreciated.

Does the replay protection require that you send a minimum amount to a known "special" address? (the B2X replay protection also will require this kind of trick: B2X Opt-in Replay Protection https://bitcointechtalk.com/how-segwit2x-replay-protection-works-1a5e41767103 )

Or is it a "built-in" protection, i.e. like with Bitcoin Cash, you just send your coins without worrying because the blockchain is not linked to BTC

I think Bittrex works,i am also waiting for the announcement.

Regretfully BTG is not as pretty as BCH, it seems to be a junk and worthless coin.
I see B2x will be superior. we wait for 2018 whether BTG really exist and valuable.

Claiming Bitcoin Gold from BTC stored in Hardware wallet ?

KeepKey / Trezor / Ledger

If we held BTC in hardware wallets - through Oct 25 : How do we get our BTG Huh

With BCC Ledger added support the their wallets - I hope it's the same this time around.

Hi everyone,

I'm a bit confused about BTG claiming.

I've stored my BTC in some Paper Wallet; now... I know I've to move them before claiming (like I did with BCH), but where / how I can extract out the BTG coins from the Paper Wallet?
At now I've seen no official wallet.

Also, why in CoinMarketCap are they still classified as "Futures"? Aren't they Live?

Thx

You can use the Electrum Gold wallet for bitcoin gold https://www.electrum-gold.org

This website has been debunked several times that its a scam website to steal your coins. The point it anyone who is interested in claiming his bitcoin from any source whatsoever, be sure the link is from the official bitcoin gold website that you get the link or else, you are at the risk of losing your bitcoin and the same time your bitcoin gold. There are several scam sites on the internet looking for who to devour of his resources.

It's turtles all the way down!

Gdax just sent me an email a few days ago explaining that they will give out the equivalent bitcoin in bitcoingold, so if anyone trusts them, that's a good place to do it. I know that I'm going to be getting my bitcoingold from them, since they haven't done me wrong in the past and I have faith in their business.

Will those who had BTC on October 25th be able to claim their BTG later even if they sold their BTC today?
Will the procedure of installing a BTG node and then copy your old BTC wallet work?

Yes, I got my BTG without any problems! Everyone swears, but I did it. 0.4 BTG. Trifle but nice!
I got here www.btgolds.org others constantly DDOS

This one looks really really like a scam ! The official domain is https://bitcoingold.org/. btgolds.org was created 6 days ago.
The form asks for your Bitcoin Private key, don't disclose it.

It´s just like people keeping informing their private keys to and fro at every scam that appears out there. is called PRIVATE for a reason. Is mine and screw everybody else. Private keys are used to unlock the information in the wallet and to make transfers of value. People fail to understand that the private key is like the password of their bank card. If anybody did not understand this, please send me their bank card along with its password, please. I put my mailing address here.
Everyone will ask me: Are you crazy? I am not giving you my bank card with its password.
But, whenever they have the chance, they´re giving away their private keys. This is the virtual world but governed by the same rules, don´t do here what you wouldn´t do in the real world.
