Why would you ever use an online wallet such as this :/

it is a scam

first and most important reason is that bitcoin gold is not even ready yet. the specification that a wallet needs to use to sign a transaction is not yet set (i am talking about replay protection and the sighash they should use like bitcoin cash). so a wallet can not release something already but you can find a .exe on their website!

secondly, it is closed source! it has no source code, no github repository, nothing! it is just a binary on a random website that anyone can create as cheap as possible. and it is poorly designed which means the scammer wanted to not even waste time!

if you download this it will most probably broadcast your private keys easily to the scammer or maybe even spends your bitcoin and bitcoin gold both by sending all you have to the scammer's wallet.

Please do not. There will be a lot of scam wallets that will come up and be sure to check the website http://btcgpu.org to see if the wallet is listed or not. Do not just paste your private key in any wallet because you want to get you BTG, you will end up losing all your funds straight up.

From what I can see, this is not even listed on their website, so stay away and make use of the ones listed from the website I dropped.
