Topic: What is BTG (Bitcoin Gold) (Read 1248 times)
The second son of btc, but seems not very excellent, only a token based on air, and no use right now.
you just have to hold bitcoin for a while. because in some market exchanges can not exchange with bitcoin.
maybe it will go down a few 100$-250$ or so, but this is supposed to be very short term.
BTG full name BitcoinGold, also known as BitcoinGPU (graphics mining), originated by a developer organization against segwit2x activities: "NO2X" (the name is very direct).
Did you buy PAX?
BitCoin mining is constantly improving and renewing itself. BTG is the one of them. firstly it must be thoroughly investigated and learned. new features have to be discovered. it will also take place in many exchange sites over time.
Bitcoin Gold is a hard fork of the bitcoin protocol devised by Lightning ASIC which is a Hong Kong based mining firm led by Jack Liao, CEO. To combat the mining centralization problem, the BTG developers are implementing a different mining algorithm altogether that will be resistant to ASIC chips called Equihash. I think you just hold your bitcoin in a while

Bitcoin Gold decentralizes mining by adopting a PoW algorithm, Equihash, which cannot be run faster on the specialty equipment used for Bitcoin mining (ASIC miners.) This gives ordinary users a fair opportunity to mine with ubiquitous GPUs.
Yes, but still we must spread our investments. this is why 50% of my holdings are in altcoins, actually now I am 40% in PAX so if it goes where I think it will I ll be very happy man

Sell your bitcoin gold and never think of it again. Problem solved
Bitcoin Gold is launching as a hard fork of Bitcoin. The goal of BTG is to become a better gold than Bitcoin. The chief way they have decided to do this is trying to solve miner centralization through a proof-of-work change. Changing proof-of-work is generally going to require a hard fork and BTG has decided to go that route. The proof-of-work that they’ve chosen is Equihash, a memory-hard algorithm that used by ZCash. The idea is to give mining back to the users who can start using CPUs and GPUs to mine. Bitcoin Gold will only affect you if you own Bitcoin when they pick the hard fork block. You will receive the exact amount of Bitcoin Gold as Bitcoin you hold at that block.
Bitcoin Gold is a fork of the Bitcoin blockchain. Bitcoin Gold miners began creating blocks with a new proof-of-work algorithm, and this will cause a branching out of the Bitcoin blockchain. The original Bitcoin blockchain will continue on unaltered, but a new branch of the blockchain will split off from the original chain. The new branch is a distinct blockchain with the same transaction history as Bitcoin up until the fork, but then diverges from it. As a result of this process, a new cryptocurrency is born.
Bitcoin Gold is a community-activated hard fork of Bitcoin to make mining decentralized again.
The Bitcoin Gold project is being driven by some developers, miners, and their head Jack Liao, the CEO of the Hong Kong-based mining equipment manufacturing company, LightningAsic.
Features of Bitcoin Gold (BTG)
BTG will be based on Equihash so it will be GPU minable.
BTG will have inbuilt replay protection because it is a direct fork of BTC.
BTG will have a variable difficulty that will change per block. (Good thing for GPU miners.)
And looks like BTG will have a pool of pre-mined coins for 16,000 blocks.
Apart from these, there will be no changes like block size adjustment.
And BTG will be following the suit of the original BTC core developers for the future betterment of their coin because they believe that’s the secure way.

Seem like OP don't really want to know about BTG. He just want to promote PAX ICO project. I seen the same topic he created in Bitcoin Disscussion 
). Maybe he thought that he can cheat people to invest in this project by this way )

To my knowledge, Bitcoin Gold is a branch of Bitcoin, which is separated from the original Bitcoin blocks, or in other words, a product that was born after the hardfork took place, in the same way that Bitcoin Cash was born. Bitcoin Gold developers want to solve the mining problem by changing the proof-of-work algorithm and they have chosen hardfork to solve the problem. If you have Bitcoin in your wallet at the time before the hardfork occurs, you will receive the corresponding Bitcoin Gold number, so keep your Bitcoin very careful, especially your private key

Bitcoin gold is an altcoin which is created after the hard fork of the master of all cryptocurrencies -bitcoin. You will receive as many Bitcoin gold as many Bitcoins you own in your wallet at the time of hard fork on October 25,2017. It is just an altcoin created from Bitcoin but is a little different from its parent. It is based upon equihash algorithm which is ASIC resistant whereas Bitcoin is based upon SHA 256 algorithm.

still didn't get it
Someone's made a cheap slightly different copy of Bitcoin to make themselves some money. You can ignore it, or you can claim it and them sell it to make a little bit of money.
Any clearer?

- Another bitcoin clone- Mineable with GPU not with ASIC
- Premined by developers, one of the lead developer is trying hard to remain anonymous
- If you had bitcoin when snapshot of blockchain was taken around mid day today than you can get bitcoin gold for free, you just need to have private key of your bitcoin addres.
- They are offering nothing new so expect heavy dump in market.
