Bitcoin Forum

What do you guys think the price will be? Its name suggests that it will be expensive, yet its mining is GPU, so I expect it to be way cheaper than BTC itself.
I am not sure if it will be around the ETH price though. Some suggest that it will start off around 50 USD due to people selling as soon as they get it, but I am not sure.
Opinions, please?

This is strictly impossible to predict. And we won't know until D-Day... This will depend on how well it is received by investors. Many believe that this is an unsuccessful project and there is a risk of massive sales during the following hours. Also see how the BCC will behave, this can be interesting to follow

Absolutely agreed. BCC came at around 10% of bitcoin at that time. All of this depends on how investors perceive it. Problem with btg is that almost all major exchanges are not supporting btg trade so dont expect it to have a great potential future.

I believe that after fork when people have their bitcoin gold they will sell their btc gold immediately and its gonna be dumbed. Its destiny will be the same as bitcoin cash.

I have a feeling that due to the fact that the people behind it aren't as strong as Jihan, as in someone to dedicate resources to the network, it's gonna flop bigly. Plus another cat out of the bag is the fact that these douchebags have ALREADY forked at some point. Who the hell would trust these scammers? We saw a massive surge in Vertcoin, which is probably owed to those that realize bitcoin gold does not solve any problem, it creates even more.

You can't say what will be the price of something that doesnt exist still! Well, it could start as BCH started and then decrease, because people will start dumping it as soon as possible! Unless the price is already pumped up and starts ahead of $1000 then users might think of holding it and using it with trading profit!

We can only assume what the price will be but that is not the point of bitcoin gold, his creator has stated that he wants to give power back to home users as anyone with a good graphic card or good processor can mine the equihash algorithm where bitcoin gold is based. The creator of bitcoin gold thinks that this is needed in order to achieve greater decentralization because the bitcoin is being monopolized by Chinese ASIC farms.

The name says nothing, it could be Bitcoin Diamond and the price be $1... I don't expect too much from this new currency, I think it can compete with Bitcoin Cash to see what is the best between them. As on the last hard fork I expect to see a initial bump, giving a chance to sell fast and right after a dump until the price stabilizes. Anyway, it's just a personal opinion and I will follow this trying to sell Bitcoin Gold faster as possible.

Will be around ETH's price? I don't think so, we just have to wait on that day before speculating because we don't have an idea on how much bitcoin gold is right now.

Just like bitcoin cash I'm expecting that it's just a trash after the hard fork but look on how enormous the trades are and later on the price was quite stable after a month.

And this can be possible with bitcoin gold, just wait for it, we are near on that day so let's be patient and see it personally.

Bitcoin gold's price willl be higher than bitcoin cash's price. I am somehow sure about that but you cannot know it. Some says it is going to be dumped hard.

While nobody can be sure, I have a feeling that most people will just end up dumping their Bitcoin Gold, and then it’ll end up at about 3/5 of the price of Bitcoin Cash.

1k in the first week and 200$ in december

I do not think it will be as profitable as Bitcoin cash. I do not expect big values, but we will see soon :)

It can rise with the hype in first days after the fork, but high prices won't last for long. I believe the price will pump and dump just like BCH but will trade for less than BCH and will not pump to 1200 like BCH did.
My prediction is $200 to $500 in the first week.

Btw, anybody knows will poloniex credit BTG like bittrex will, or?

~$100 tops. No one cares for it, no one asked for it. Plus the implementation is the worst.

Ethereum price is at the level it is, because of the difficulty also. I think the same thing will happen with bitcoin gold. The price will adjust depending on how many miners will adapt it. 

Impossible to know but speculating that it will be inbetween the $75-150 range to start off. Dont know where it will go from there though

of course, nobody knows how much will it be worth since we dont have any guide or something that can tell us the price that it will have, the same happened with bitcoincash, nobody knew that the price was going to be more than $400 after it got listed. but it depends, btg will probably be worth less than $250 each one, i dont think that it will be much more than that, since we all know that this is just a forked coin, and it is not a profitable thing.

It is insane to speculate about the price of it because we dont know anything about this coin,  but we know that it is going to be listed on Poloniex and Bittrex, and a lot of people will be using them for trading and for speculating purposes just like it happened with bch, a lot of people were buying only to sell when the price reached x2 since it was listed. But not more than $150, and this is expensive enough, nobody would believe in another coin borned from a fork.

Even the fact bitcoin cash doesn't keep some coins to the developer like what already did by bitcoin gold. 1 bitcoin equal with 11 btg and the price will be 11x lower than bitcoin cash and that will touch only double digit.

the rise of bitcoin is the only reason, BTC gold. changed to BTC investors, a large part of assets. price yet unknown. BTC will be in cash. a few days in high volumes fluctuates.  :o :o

At least $100, that would put it at 1/60th the price of Bitcoin, and honestly I don't see Bitcoin Gold going anywhere. Unlike Bitcoin Cash it seems like everyone universally sees Bitcoin Gold as something to throw away as soon as they get it. This also means that it won't hold value for long so it's probably good to cash out ASAP once airdropped.

i say it wont be more than 100$ :D 
I think that people/exchanges are getting tired of these fork coins, each claiming to be the real Bitcoin or better Bitcoin
I dont even know whats "better" anymore, im just sticking with the main chain :D

everyone here just has different assumptions, but is it wrong? it is not wrong because after all no one is able to do the speculation themselves.
see what happened to the BCC only a temporary increase and now the price is stable after a hard fork and bitcoin gold will experience the same thing.

I am optimistic the price will reach $100, all depends on the degree of stability algorithm on bitcoingold, not possible equal to BCH because it is second generation. Price shrinkage is very fair but they will stay on the top 10 crypto list. We should wait for them because it will appear in 2 days.

I am looking forward for this one to be traded,
I ll have some and I am curios to know its price.

I predict of about 10% of BTC
Lets trade it

Did you read about the latest announcement from bittrex regarding the bitcoin gold. And it seems the bitcoin gold has so many problems need to be resolved asap. The price will below $100.
Remember bitcoin cash 1:1 with the bitcoin and you will get more bitcoin gold for each bitcoin rather than bitcoin gold itself. that means the total supply will be around 21 million.

The only way to really find out is to wait and see what happens! And we will see the first exchange Yobit exchange Bitcoin Gold today, according to the Twitter account's announcement. What I like is that miners from Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash cannot just move over to BCG because it is a GPU mining coin. So we won't see the wild move up and down of hashpower and difficulty.

MY own guess is that it will cost more than BCC eventually, but in the beginning, will be very high as demand rises, and lay off after a month.

Whats the consensus as to the best wallet to have your BTC in during the snapshot?

guys, there is a question: will you get same quantity of BTG and will the quantity of BTC change after hard fork if you have bitcoins in your cold wallet?

I don't think so it'll be more than $200, let see how it goes.

#1: People will dump BTG right after fork to get more BTC
#2: People will wait for Segwit2X to get more free coins
#3: People will dump Segwit2X coins for BTC again
#4: GPU Miners will start mining BTG (provided the cost holds better than ETH)
#5: Price hike in BTG
#6: People will start buying BTG expecting hike in price
#7: BTG Price hikes

;)

Yes.
It is very possible.

BTG offers a possiblity for most people to mine.
It ll be a very interesting value for this one.
I ll watch this coins and HODL

So, this could be throw away as soon as you get it, and then regret it later :)

Impossible to know, right.
But i don't think so. Bitcoin gold price won't reach cash's price. We will see 100-150 dollars :)

that’s also interesting. for example, BTG will costs 500$, but BTC after fork could easily be adjusted to 5000$, it means -1000$. so the choice is yours: is it profitable to get BTC for the sake of BTG

Its difficult for me to explain how much it will be.
But i got some info from my friend it could be around 10% price of btc.
Its just opinion so nothing sure. We have to wait the time coming.

I think this will be the same as the cryptocurrincie's big game, coin +new fork +new coin and so.. a hug people get some free coins while all other manufacturers and providers, pools, Devs etc collect the rest
Nothing new, just play with others and keep watching
Just keep your btc right now in private wallet and get your new gold!
ENJOY  :)

I am expecting the btc gold price higher than btc cash.
Good to invest now..  8)

I would have said BTG won't be worth anything, but I thought that about Bitcoin Cash and was epically wrong. Who knows anymore? Only way to find out is to wait and see.

If it ends up being worth more than eth, I might switch my rigs to start mining it ... I won't be the only one.

Well, there is no way it will replace ETH, because everyone uses ether to for the ICOs and such. Thats the sole reason China is banning ICOs, they dont want regular people mining currency such as ETH. So you can bet they will be against btc gold as well.

No man they are just trying to protect their people and get in on the action as well. China will come out with regulations for ICOs and exchanges. Everything will be back to normal in a year or however long it takes them..

I didn't say it will replace Eth ... I said I would start mining it instead of ETH if it is more profitable.

I will agree that China wants to keep the power of having the majority of mining farms -- which will limit support for BTG. But them banning ICOs is, in my opinion, unrelated. ICOs need regulation. Regulation isn't necessarily a bad thing & neither is having less ICOs in general. I'd say the majority of long term crypto traders have been scammed (or at least slightly abused) by an ICO or two.

Am thinking a little lower than $50, GPU mining is quite expensive and elaborate.

we will be known about this after the Hard fork. my prediction is "it may be come out with 200+ usd"

It will see some high values tommorow, I am very sure that there will be a big hype and the people starting to buy this fork up!  8)

There will be a big hype happen at first that bitcoin gold price will rise like bitcoin cash. But I think it will suddenly dump because people will sell their bitcoin gold. And I think, it is the same will happen of bitcoincash.

I think Bitcoin Gold have the same price with Bitcoin cash at the hard fork moment. It means about %500.

Its already 400 USD and Kraken decided not to give me my dollars. I knew I should have transferred my btc gold to other exchanges.

We have no basis to comment regarding with the price of bitcoin gold in the market, definitely we have less knowledge with regards to this coin, also what their strategy during launching of this project. However I try to have some idea to this altcoins because if I see that this coins have a good potential I just invest to this coins because I want to know how long it will runs in good price.

Kraken never supported BTG out of some major exchanged only yobit and hitbtc were supporting btg trade. Bittrex only promised to give you but balance did not allowed trade.

Like virtualminer says, Kraken never announced a statement that they would support bitcoin gold.

Regarding the price, I think it will be the same as it was with bitcoin cash: first price will increase and increase, at the moment when everybody can exchange their btc gold, the dump will happen.

its only 110 on bitfinex right now

I think the bitcoin gold price will be equivalent to bitcoin cash.
bitcoin prices will not be exceeded by the new coin although it is coin bitcoin gold is very interesting.
but that is just my speculation.

I think it will be similar to bitcoin cash, a useless new currency, I'm not interested in it. New coins are constantly useless while Bitcoin Core does everything well.

Ha, it's already started plummeting as everyone knew it would and it hasn't even hit most exchanges yet. It's already down to the low 100s and will only go lower. I hope all those who are still holding and missing out on all the alt coin gains realize that these forks aren't worth the small amount they will get from the forked coins from btc.

Zoom out on the daily charts and this little altcoin rise is just a small blip. Most alts need 400-800% just to get back to where they were in the late spring.

This would really be destined just like on Bitcoin cash and you are right same as yours im not really interested on this fork coins that are resembling on bitcoin itself but yet this is just an another altcoin in the market and people wont really put too much interest just like on what they have putted on bitcoin itself. For now price is playing on $500. I dont have any updates if it already dumped or not.

Well, I know CEX.IO supported it. They are expensive and everything but thats what I started with at the beginning.

I know a lot of people that didn't even know how to claim Bitcoin Gold. So circulating supply is much less than expected. Bitcoin Gold price can go anywhere whales want. I think it's too hard to guess the price movement.

Very lucky for traders who get it first time in yobit, the price is still good diangka 0.09 and have a good volume, I get BTG on hitbtc and it turns out the market price is in the range of 0.04. Currently the price is shrinking.

My question is whether BTG prices can go back up? As we know that the first period of BCH is the level of market panic that sells so much uncontrollably, I'm not sure BTG will have a price above the BCH.

Bitcoin gold seems will drop first
But it would rise bigger later.
At the beginning it may be of about 10% of BTC.

BTG has a chance to be distributed better than BTC

"You can't say what will be the price of something that doesnt exist still!"
Incorrect. Multiple reasons invalidate this statement. One of which is the fact that I can say it, but it just has a low probability of being true.
And if I were to make a coin that is directly connected to USD, as you can turn 1 of this coin into 300 USD always, its price will always stay $300 and although it doesn't even exist yet, its price is predictable: $300.

"Well, it could start as BCH started and then decrease, because people will start dumping it as soon as possible!"

Most likely not true. For Bitcoin Cash, there was way more support, thus upping the price. For Bitcoin Gold, the support is REALLY close to zero.
Many exchanges have also made it clear that they will not support BTG, thus it's not strange to expect a lower starting price for BTG.

I agree that people will probably start dumping it as soon as possible. I will hold it, just like I did with Bitcoin Cash at the time, in the hopes of it growing large and me getting a nice profit, but I fear the same: It will drop very hard, even harder than Bitcoin Cash, simply because of its lower support.
I really hope that people will just hold it and people really want to buy it so we can earn some extra profit on it though... But probably not.

"Unless the price is already pumped up and start ahead of $1000 then users might think of holding it and using it with trading profit!"

Yeah, we can fantasize, but that's just a waste of time in my opinion. It won't be starting ahead of $1000 and if it will, people will definitely be selling all they got of it and it would drop REALLY hard.
I feel like it would making people sell it, not hold it. If you can claim an extra $1000/coin, why would you risk holding something that has low support anyways?

By the way... Do you always end your sentences with exclamation marks?
I don't find it very annoying or harmful, but it's just weird...  Maybe try learning how to use punctuation properly...

That's quite a speculation.

Today, Bitcoin gold price has fallen down from $479 to $136. It's really a dumping. If anyone trusts in Bitcoin gold, this is a good time to buy. Hope that its price will recover soon.  ::)

We can not predict the price before BITCOIN GOLD trade on market,just patience and wait before or after 1 November, I think It's actually premined and not have Reply protection,So I don't like this coin trade on market

Pump to 0.15 at least, then a slow downtrend. I would assume the graph will look similar to Bitcoin Cash. These forks are just confusing regular people and making them avoid cryptocurrencies in general.


That is an IOU token, I wouldn't pay attention to any price listed until Nov 1st.

price now about 100$ any may be need 1 Year to increase to 1000$

It is dropping hard but this is expected from a coin like Bitcoin gold which was created out of thin year. This may rise a bit and dump further. I think the exact same thing might happen with the upcoming B2X fork. Currently it is trading well over $1000 in bitfinix.

Did they solve the spending problem for Bitcoin Gold yet? I don't remember the name for the problem.

It apparently cannot go anywhere whale wants as i doubt if whales will ever want to support a shitcoin. presently it is trading around $124 after dropping so bad from about $400, whereas most people have not even gotten ways to get theirs and dump it yet. It is already dead and on coinmarket cap, it is 945th rank. How worst can it get for this coin?

I don't know where you live, but you should go out from this cave! There is no problem, and never was.

BTG has not been doing great :'(

Any idea when we can start mining this (hopefully get profits too after)

This simple won't happen, it will go down almost instantly because of lack of support. I'm not convinced any if you have serious plans for keeping this coin in wallet for a years..
Probably when they releases wallet. Do not expect too much from this one. Everything is up to whales, but i doubt that will have same support like BCH had. Maybe we can see usual pump and dump, but in a volume like BCH had.

This is from Bittrex Statement on Bitcoin Gold

Did they fixed this?

Really disappointing from a coin that has a great name.

 definition of overhyped shitcoin:BTG..
 do you expected more?really¿? it has no future.. you will be a bagholder of nothing but dust in some time.
and for them talking about mining BTG?¿ did you know it was premined?

Name is actually part of marketing try for better coverage.
If you don't buy this you will not be affected at all. Those airdrops happening everyday and you won't lose nothing if you miss this one.

This is just waste of time and till November this won't have no value, just watch how YoBit gets profit from this dust.

It is already back up to 151 USD. So, I am thinking it won't be lost in the dark soon :)

Update on bitcoin Gold to answer your question (though I do not support bitcoin gold in any way):

"Bitcoin Gold has implemented a solution called SIGHASH_FORK_ID reply protection. It is an effective 2-way protection mechanism that enforces a new algorith to calculate the hash of a transaction so that all new btc transactions will be invalid on the BTG blockchain and vice cersa. This makes replaying transactions impossible".

I'm actually surprised that despite founder pre-mine, lack of development this is still trading above $100.

The price goes down more and more, no one trusts Bitcoin Gold. I think your price will drop by 50 dolars. Probably the price will never increase exactly. It's a waste of time.

Happy to see my prediction turned to be true so far.. would we overtake bitcoin cash (bcash :P) ? Let me make a prediction again.. how about: Aug / Sep - 2018 ?

How do you know my friend, no one  knows that. Only the time will show the best between bitcoin cash and bitcoin gold.
