Topic: The upcoming fork November 2017 (Bitcoin gold)? (Read 7546 times)

of course you will get BTG from each exchanger that supports BTG.
but I recommend to collect your Bitcoin in one market. to make it easier and I think it looks simple.

The only place where you can trade it is Yobit. The other exchanges are wary because it has no replay protection.

You won't see it anytime soon, as they don't plan to support it atm:

I dont see any BTG on Kraken yet.

Hi mate, can you tell me where you heard this? I cant see it anywhere.

Guys I've been reading all the threads and I am still very much confused...
Some say keep your BTC in Kraken and you will get the same amount in Bitcoin Gold and others say it is risky and that you should get your BTC out of Kraken and into a wallet like Jaxx and still be credited with Bitcoin Gold..? For the last fork I moved my BTC to Jaxx wallet and I never was credited any BCC nor in Kraken or in Jaxx. Please could someone just confirm if it is ok to leave my BTC in Kraken (not that much because I know it is always risky to have BIG amounts of BTC on an exchange) so that i can continue using them to buy other coins? I really don't care much of the Bitcoin Gold but I would like to know that I will not loose my BTC on Kraken after the fork.
Thanks for the help.

It would be great if there were some overview of all exchanges that will credit BTG to BTC holders, as not all of them did after the BCH fork. If there is one already, could someone drop a link?

It seems to me that I understood their motives. Bitcoin can be a distraction to organize a large pump. Throughout September the price was at the bottom. Whales bought coins at a price of about $ 3,000. Now at the expense of those who will be hoping to bitcoin gold, the price of bitcoin will rise sharply. Whales will sell their bitcoins expensive and will pay users free coins which will be worth nothing.

Depends on how you look at it. Naturally speaking like nature, things fork/divide - animals and minds evolve. Everything is temporary, forking enables better advancement of technology and flourish of creativity. The technical details are important to understand why things are happening the way they are. It comes down to the idea of why the blockchain was even needed in the first place.

It is open source technology given to you and me to use for free, for the betterment of people; a lot like how the WWW tech was given to the people. It gives opportunity for people to take control of their content, wealth and reputation without security compromise and corporate monopoly - The future will consists of decentralized exchanges and ultimately, because every individual is more important to the ecosystem than few being able to manipulate their exchange for gains and taking advantage of the people.

In recent bitcoin exchanges and corporate exchanges, this has happened. Even in banking this goes on. What can happen, will happen. Humans are animals, but we are also beautiful hearted minds when we are peace. Aristotle, Pythagoras and important other minds would even go to say, our bodies are complex vessels that hold the spirit or soul. The ol' saying, 'I am thinking, about thinking'.

Overall, I think this is very healthy for the blockchain ecosystem. Things will change and people will continue supporting the blockchain ecosystem. Every bite we we eat is the choice we make.

Hell to the no. People might get excited because they get a free alt airdrop, but hut like this is absolutely runing the trust for the community, from the outside. bitcoin is already nebolous enough, having to explain all these forks is just going to turn lay people of of bitcoin before they get started.

we cant settle every disagreement we have in the ecosystem by making a fork. we are going to have to sit down and have real political consensus, or keep dividing the community needlessly for what boils down to cashgrabs, icos that require mining power rather than eth or btc.

And can we at least make up a novel name? Gold? Really?

Do you think the fork will be a good thing?

I wonder why my reply was deleted.

Just please explain what I did wrong.

Just like the hard fork that happened on August 1 and produced the now useless Bitcoin Cash, The resulting alt coin which will be produced during November will also sink into oblivion. Even bitcoin cash had a lot of hype around it but with bitcoin gold, people don't really seem to care about it at all. I don't know why these miners like splitting the currency so much. There must be something to their motives.

I see!

This looks to me as worthless currency then if I don’t have a way to exchange it. I am not favouring using any exchange... exchanges somehow don’t appear to me as fitting to the principle of freedom.

Exchanges in my opinion should be only for converting crypto <-> Fiat, from and to my bank account.

Maybe the community can come up with something so people can exchange their cryptos, something like localbitcoins, and shapeshift combined.

What you think guys?

Welcome to the world of Crypto. Yes, you will recieve  your coins. Just make sure your coins are not in an exchange. Keep them on theJaxx or any other wallet where you keep your private keys. Then stay put and wait for every thing to pass.

i don't think Shapeshit is going to list it, at least not for many months.
if you want to dump it and get bitcoin you need to use an exchange that will list this coin. so far there is none that i know of which plans on adding it. but you can count on Yobit because they are a terrible exchange which will add any random altcoin they can get their hands on.

Shapeshift perhaps or something similar? Still we have to see which wallet will support it.

Are you sure Kraken will support Bgold?
I haven't found any information announcement about that.Neither from Kraken nor from the Bgold team.

So, we should expect some free coins and a boost in BTC price? Same scenario as Bitcoin Cash?

With a knowledge like that and with a satoshi in wallets that is not even known to everyone, I doubt that you're a 5 weeks old here.
By the way read for instructions for like example Before the BCC fork (electrum) has a guidelines on what to do during and after the fork. And see for yourself if your wallet is capable of replay protection and be sure that you have your own master private key.
REad also the headline news and thread here made by the Global moderators here itself.
Be Updated.
