Hodl? Ha ha.
Seriously, I heard you can't really transfer it until Nov 1 and the value is sort undetermined?
Can I trade mine for some other alt-coins?

In my opinion and in my vision there are several ways of what you can do with Bitcoin Gold (BTG).
1. You can just hold it and wait for the best moment to sell. (if you already have it/or buy it while it is cheap). But there is a chance that you will wait too much or something else.. And then sell for a cheap. But I don't know what will be with the price of BTG in long time period.
2. Trade! But I think now is maybe a bit late. Before hard fork it was the best thing to move from altcoins to buy BTC and get free BTG and sell it. And after that immediately buy altcoins again while they are cheap.

I'm looking to invest my BTG's in ICO's.  It's basically playing with house money, might as well try going for the moon. 

Probably do the same once the hard fork hits!  My goal is to triple my gains by end of year ;)

If anyone has suggestions, let me know!

I do not know how much it will be worth when trading starts but my plan is to hold. I have bitcoin and eight ether tokens. Looking to hold a variety of cryptos to keep a diversified portfolio.

I dont think it will be worthier than bitcoin cash and the price may drop after November 1 as most of the holders will dump it for Bitcoin or altcoins.

Sold my btc before i even got it. didn't think it would be worth anything

...BTG?  Should've sold it to me!  ;D

Sell it whilst it's worth something and then just forget about it because in a few weeks everyone else would of forgot about it and it will plummet.

I'm just going to hold onto it for a while just as I with with the previous fork.
It's going to be pretty interesting seeing at how much the price will be settling to, I think it's going to be less than with BCH.

Can't really hurt to wait a bit if you're making a profit regardless :)

I sold mine right after i got them on my wallet, they are useless, tell me, what can you do with bitcoin gold? anything, the only thing that you can do is just selling them for bitcoins, and then withdraw that money or use it to invest in other altcoins or just keep it on bitcoins.
You can not even send bitcoin gold to another wallet, it is useless, you cant do a shit with it, bitcoin cash was pretty the same, but you can transfer it and it has been quiet.
Bitcoin gold is only going down.. less than $115 at the moment.

My bad, placed my btc on exchange, didn't get it yet. But i'll sell it immediately for btc, not worth for hodling

Have you already claimed your Bitcoin Golds? If so, how did you accomplish that?

I have all my Bitcoins on my Trezor Hardware Wallet. And is there any exchange available which has deposits already enabled for BTG?

Dumping it the second i get it , i really dislike the whole concept.

I had some BTC on Bitfinex so I just dumped the gold once I got it..  :P

if i have much bitcoin gold, iam sell all my balance
bitcoin gold not potential incraese, but always down price

Just keep them all until you re able to send your bitcoin gold to the exchange site, i just suggest people to keep their bitcoin in the exchange site that already supported the bitcoin cash trade. And you can dump them all anytime if you want. In another side about the fact bitcoin gold is a bit scammy coin with premined shit for the developer.
The developer just a fuckin scammer. you can see all of the proof.

You can doing anything with bitcoin gold neither bitcoin cash also even bitcoin.They are just trade coins they has got no main purpose because for example btc;its trading purose is so big,it hasnt got a another purpose for buying

Going to let it go and utilize the cash for other good altcoin opportunities.

I truly wonder if this is a hold, a hodl or a sell.

To each his own.

For me i choose to sell it once i got my btg, i do not want to hold because i feel this would be like what happen on bch a week after hard fork the value was continuous decreasing until it would be worthless. But it depends on the owner of btg if they b3lieved that this altcoin has a brighter future go just hold it for long period of time.

All the smart people dumped the coin when it was at $500 and rebought it if they wanted it, but other than that some are holding, hoping that it can reach the highs bitcoin cash reached.

Most of the people I know who received Bitcoin Gold from the fork sold all of their free coins because they mostly said it would be another pump and dump altcoin. I sold mine as well when I got it through Hitbtc.

Should we just expect a massive sell off of Bitcoin Gold?

I'd love to know how much money was made by the folks who made the fork happen!

There are so many suspicious things about this BTG, I can't even understand of they can pretend to be a fork of BTC.
Everybody will sell as soon as they release the wallet, if they ever do...

I keep my BTC at blockchain.info. I am not sure whether they will give out BTG

As soon as I get my bitcoin gold I will be dumping it for as much as I can get which I suspect won't be much at all, I see no future for it and would be happy if I can get even 0.01 BTC.

Holding of course but not much, bitcoin gold price is really low right now luckly i'm directly sell it before it fall. Actually you still can transfer your coins right now.


Blockchain.info is supporting this bitcoin gold fork, i think you will see your bitcoin gold balance soon.

I've not been able to get my bitcoingold from my private key yet. The rest I got from exchanges are already traded for bitcoins and some low values are ignored.

I will sell it, the price is not fascinating at all and keep on dropping every day, not single people interested in this coin, all of the cover was negative news and people just dump it to get free money, not long the coin will lost its value

The value is seriously down now, so am thinking of selling the small quantity off and buy an altcoin that seems promising.

you always have to plan ahead for these things.  do a risk assessment and see if the reward is enough to even bother thinking about different methods of claiming these airdrops.

for example so far i have only participated in a handful of airdrops so far simply because the rest of them are too time consuming and i prefer using my time more constructively.

as for bitcoin gold the way to claim it was to deposit your coins on exchanges. i used Yobit for that matter. the risks were obvious for me so i did it with a small amount of my stash, you know because it was Yobit and they are shady as hell. but the reward was good since the price of BTG went to the moon in the first couple of hours but i had to keep my bitcoins there for a couple of days since they disabled their withdrawals.

now you will have to wait until the release. good news is that by that time the price may have another pump which may even be as big as the first one (0.19BTC)

I don't think bitcoin gold will ever be taken seriously. The choices really are either sell immediately, or else wait for a pump. I assume it will attract a major pump at some point just because of the publicity around it.

Yeah it seemed pretty disorganised at launch. Not a great start.

I don't know, but there will certainly be a dump in the beginning when everybody wants to cash out. Then will start the usual pump & dump game and it´s up to the miners to follow this chain; we will see.

Coin seems useless, bad team and unclear roadmap. As soon as they will be able to mine one block and Ledger will made the BTG available I will send them to an exchange and sell it.

Hopefully the team will release soon some updates and maybe it will keep the 0.02/0.03 BTC value

I was thinking the same, to invest my bitcoingold into ICO's, I haven't gotten my bitcoingold still but I am waiting on it, Bittrex is doubting about the damn coin, if I get it  I just invest it in some good ICO's, my goal is to at least double my money by end of the year, I am happy with that, trippeling my money happens in 2018, I hope the good altcoins will be on fire and giving us those nice chunks of bitcoin.

I am waiting for the price of bitcoin gold BTG on exchangers, if the price has potential for more growth up i will hold it, but if the price will goes down i will sell all of them, every my desicions must be based on the analysis technical unfortunately for right now i don't have any data related with price of bitcoin gold and i don't want make speculation about the bitcoin gold now, the chance of mistake is more big without any data.

Smart people are dumping like crazy lol. And i am one of them. There is no future for bitcoingold and i am happy that i dumped them all.
I suggest all of you to do same.

I have not done anything with mine. I am SO glad I did not sell my huge bags of alts just to get BTC for the free coins. I would never have got them transferred in time to exchanges, by the time I did, I would have sold for perhaps 4% of BTC price at best? On the other hands, my alts have recovered more than that value, and I did not have to face the hassle.

I still have about 100,000 BTG waiting to be moved. That is something like 3xxx satoshi now,,,

If everyone is dumping it, I for sure don't want to do what everyone else is doing. It's usally best to do the opposite of the crowd.

I see that Bitcoin gold has been traded in some exchange such as HitBTC, Bifinex, Binance,...here link: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin-gold/#markets. If you don't want to hold Bitcoin gold, you can trade it now.

Maybe still some of the traders in this industry, will continually buy the bitcoin Gold as well. For sure it will pump at once after a weeks so many will invest unto it just like what happened to bitcoin cash a months ago.

I'm hoping that companies running ICO's will take notice of this and...maybe take BTG directly.  Wouldn't that be nice...  :)

All people are just selling once they get these coins. And the price is the vivid example of it

I have a few Bitcoin Gold, I should get more Bitcoin Gold when the distribution round begins. I am just keeping the coins stored till it costs more Bitcoin for them.

I cannot send my golds yet, this is a scam! They were supposed to realase the blockchain on the 1st november, yet there is no news. This is worse than a shitcoin it cannot be withdrawn or send or anything it just has  bitcoin name in it which should be unacceptable, why this was created in the first place? they have just printed money from them selves and stupid people but those alt bitcoin I am so sick of it thats why I am angry

If I were holding BitcoinGold I have to observe the market first before selling or let it stay on wallets for about a week or a month because it is just new and hope that it's price will go up high the next days and months. But it actually depends on you because it's yours and let me ask you since BitcoinGold is a newly born alt of Bitcoin, isn't it vulnerable to replay attack? I recommend you have to wait until everything is okay before making decissions. I don't actually have those coins but if will do the same as what I've said above just to be safe. For me the best way is to hold it because it is just a free coin it doesn't matter if it's price will go down just think of it as risky investment just wait for a timing and if you find out that you already have profit then that's the time to decide whether you are going to sell it or still hold  your free BitcoinGold. But yeah it's all up to you.

Judging by the fact that bitcoin gold fell so sharply in price, most of its holders, having received it free of charge after the last fork, sold it quite actively. In principle, this is still the right decision, since this coin has many unresolved vulnerabilities. Only protection from repeated transactions was introduced, as promised by the developers. In general bitcoin gold has not yet shown itself.

I am planning to hold my Bitcoin gold and i think that Bitcoin gold can show good growth in the coming months. You can expect it's price to be around 300-400$ by end of this year. But i may dump it if the project does not show any development within an year or so.

it is useless, you cant do a shit with it, bitcoin cash was pretty the same ;D ;D ;D ;D

Everyone dump their garbage token with 200k pre mined token. So there is no reason to hold it rather than dump all of your bitcoin because that was a free money for you from the bitcoin gold developers.
We are having bitcoin cash and are we need bitcoin gold? and the answer must not.

still no blockchain online? and still value this high? what a crazy thing

I will be holdi g my bitcoin gold. I wont be selling it straight away.
Look what happened with bitcoin cash this wee, up over $500 and.
I thought it was heading way down.

I think there are benefits to what the developers are doing with gold,
I want to hold and see what happens.

I am hodling, just wait until all the forks are settled a bit and winner of the bitcoin, segwit2x, bcash and btg is chosen by the market. Just don't want to make any miscalculated move that leads to a massive loss.

I don't expect a bright future for this coin. Besides, there may happen more bitcoin forks. So better wait for the best price and sell it immediately.

i think holding bitcoin gold coins is the best decision at this very moment it think it may settle on good price in the up coming days and sounds a good idea to invest it in some icos. good luck with that. 

Just like the other free coin, they might be selling their bitcoin gold because it has a value and it is up to the if they will hold it or not because in my opinion it is better to just sell their bitcoin gold and use the converted bitcoin gold to bitcoin as a capital in investing in other way or possible source of income and that will fasten their progress for sure rather than trusting a free or forked coin.
