Bitcoin Forum

19th November, BTG is still going down.
I read several complaints about either the btgpool not paying the miners, the founder having a% of every transaction, scam wallet that were proposed on the official website and were removed after they stole millions, and probably more complaints...

Also rumors about having manipulated the price etc...(pump and dump scam )

If I have bought BTG ( so not received for free because I had no BTC and I'm newbee), @ 0.035; 0.034; 0.020 ; 0.019; 0.017 and 0.016 which is between 260-270$  and 130-140$ , (total 8.89 BTG), is it worth it to keep them in the hope of an increasing price, sell partially trying not to lose too much, or try to get rid of them ?

What do you guys think about all this?

Its going to be crap at first half because it is and half to drive the price down as far as possible for accumulation.

Once its cleaned up, and everyone has sold off at low numbers well most likely see a jump in price.

What are you talking about, BTC is above $7,800 and it's not going down. The price is trying to make another jump now, are you sure you're checking the correct price?

This time it will try to make $8,500 as the record price.

BTG


I just bought reading glasses and its been a whole new world. You might consider doing the same.

I don't think most exchanges have enabled deposits or withdraws. That's why the price spread is so out of whack.

I was about to mine BTG but when i join their slacks miners has been asking question why they arent being payed, i think that people are now starting to dump the coin.
I think its not worth to mine BTG since so many problem has been coming out since its has been out.

Just leaving it, try prefer another coins that can indeed really promising to gain many profits and more people are interested in that coins (altcoins). I think it's clear.. it seems that this coin is less popular and less desirable by many people or lack of support.

Btg going up 2018 _ 2019

if we talk about BTG will find it a coin with few number of developers , miners and real project  so if you invest on it will be so risky .

problem about you is you get bought your BTG (if you get it for free can say just keep it ) so if you need to this (390$-520$) try to sell it fast with any lower price other wise just keep it no one know what will happen in future and when you enter ICO you must loss and learn from loss

BTG isn't going to seriously compete with BTC or even BTG. Don't waste your time

I never had any hope from BTG. BCH still can survive longer because it is indeed a better tech than Bitcoin(that don't necessarily guarantees that it will defeat bitcoin. We already have many altcoins better than Bitcoin). BTG is merely a fork done in hassle without any proper prearrangement. They just forked Bitcoin for personal gains. I don't see any long term goal to sustain its value. It merely being used for pump and dump now.

I think it is worth to keep your BTG. It won't disappear like that. But it may be true that the miners are giving some rewards to the BTG founder.  If all the miners decide that it is not worth to mine BTG, it may disappear. But i think there will always be some people trying to mine BTG. Because they hope they will get some profits after.

As I probably told on forums, Bitcoin Gold is even worse than Cash.
It is definitely worth to hold if you have bitcoin and get it for free, it wouldn't make you lose money. But I believe it will not ever be pumped at all and die in a year or two. Mark my words.

Think what you want with it, you are free to think that it still have potential in it. IMO BTG is worse than BCH and it is just normal for it to go down, there ain't much buy demand for it, there are more people that wants to sell it rather than buy it. If I were you I would have not even dare to buy it. Since you have bought it, it is a waste just to sell them with a loss. It is either you sell it with profit or you baghold it forever. Do not sell it now, there is a chance that some would attempt to manipulate it too, like what happened with Bitcoin Cash.

I also heard such complaint from my environment so thats why i dont try to buy Btg.
If such bad news continue i dont think btg can recover.

it's time to get your medicament , dont forget as always you do

I heard the BTG is an ICO coin. The bitcoin cash is not ICO. So the BTG could be dumped.

btg has no great value or commitment in the community or society or else it must have grown to top range by now.. better stay away from the coin buddy... its a low value community approved coin... hope u stay with just btc and earn profit from the king name bitcoin

It was just a fast cash grab. Everyone knew it all the long.

i wish really good coins, were getting the same attention here as this useless BTG, and few more useless coins that getting too much attention..

Bitcoin gold is a scammy coin, a lot of people lost a lot of money because they exported their private key to another wallet provider, and they stoled all their bitcoins using the private key that they put in there.
Almost 7/10 people who claimed bitcoin gold exported their private key to there.
So many people lost their funds because of this, and you have to take in consideration that this makes people lost their faith in those free coins that the new forks were giving.
It would not surprise to see it going below $100 each one.

I only bought by exchanging BTC on HitBtc, indeed, I never received any BTG for free but I think that my average buying price would be more around 145-150 $ because I bought only from 13t to 18th November, so, not 390$-520$..!

I think my entry price is correct...if the value goes up again..
On the contrary if it starts to go under the 100$...but we don't have a crystal ball...

That is why I asked avises from people who knw more than me and have more experience.

Thanks

Ok, I know that, but this has probably (hopefully) nothing to see with bitcoin gold itself...otherwise, it would be like shooting a bullet in their feet if they are linked to tis scam.
Probably it's a lack of professionalism,  or simply having trusted the wrong wallet company without verification..?

Maybe once the rumor is passed, if nothing else bad happens anymore, the coin will go up again?

It's like the jaxx wallet having once been hacked, I think it was probably not the fault of Jaxx and if it was, the exploit has already been corrected.
It does not prevent me to have an up-to-date Jaxx wallet.

I don't understand people supporting BTG from heart. They advocate BTG in every section of the forum, but when we ask the innovation provided by BTG system, they give no answet to us. Don't make yourself weak guys, ask questions to their developers.

Do not forget that most of the people are here to earn money, thus to speculate.
The more forks and new crypto they will be, the less rare will be the big money's like BTC and ETH.
Does it make any sense?

My opinion is that many speculators  think it's too expensive to buy BTC now to speculate and they will rather buy other currencies like the BTG or others.

Just look price now it is going so hard up and could be still going to have pump so just believe in your knowledge and try to get some thoughts after seeing bitcoin price.

Despite all the bitcoingold bs and scam stuff going on, I think it'll still get it's pumps.

Let's just wait a bit more time, it could best reverse indeed...as there are more and more new investors starting now and wanting to take their chance too..

Bitcoin Gold was born scam and it is still scam. mybtgwallet.com; the wallet they officially recommend at their web site turned out to be scam and had stolen people's bitcoin and also bitcoingold. They still do not have a desktop wallet except core wallet. Mining pools are scam. This project is either scam or not fully developed and finished.

In conclusion, bitcoin gold does not offer anything useful. It is just a start for other forks of bitcoin such as; bitcoin silver, bitcoin diamond, bitcoin white, etc.

This is the truth that bitcoin gold really don't have big support by the own owner , which are bitcoin blockchain , Because the technology they can use more better then what we see the attack on the site ( may be fake news , we can consider it as a positive thinking perosn ).
But here we should also see toward the bitcoin gold in our own ways that how the bitcoin cash got famouse with the time and now today what is the price of the bitcoin cash and how the people speedly making investment also , so you should also believe to the bitcoin gold and you should not sell your bitcoin gold and wait until the price get high .

More time is a million year for Bitcoin gold to build up a decent resistance, mate I need the money which I could earn by selling Btg @ highest

Imaginable price, but I have something else, I have conscience, can't just sit idle and watch you whales getting richer by doing nothing but telling

Lies, hate when you lie just to add more zeros to your bank accounts.

What if it keeps going down and doesn't come back up?

Nothing is able to compete with bitcoin in next 10 years if we are talking about price.

same happened to bch. Most of the people who hold btc will just see btg as a free coin and dump it. Over time it might gain its value again, what you've seen with bch aswel

Im not surprise if btg going down. It is 800k premined coin and lot of bug. Some bitcoin early adopter called it scam coin. Its does not have nothing to do with bitcoin. Just forking the code of bitcoin and change it to zcash algorithm. Then doing an airdrop to every bitcoin holder. This coin is not worth anything. Zcash and dash better.

Btg indeed is a risky investment , lot of investors dumping it and even major cryptocurrency exchanges don't trade btg yet due to a lack of faith in this coin.It's up to you now to decide if you can handle that risk in holding that coin.Or try to sell it partially and observe its flow before deciding the next move.

The current price of BTG is definitely in the decline stage, and the previous period has only been rising. The price can't rise in the future, so it depends on whether the team will continue to develop and promote it.

BTG is not worth anything, it's just a fork of BTC. If I suggest selling it as soon as possible, the price of the coin will continue to fall.

BTG is a total messup. ...their official website linked to a wallet that was a scam. ...coins were stolen. also the fork wasn't that clean, wallets were not working well.
funds frozen in exchanges...

Bitcoin Gold is $350 now. I wish I had my BTG but my local exchange scammed everybody, they don't give our BTG's. If I had it I would dump it in market. Bad luck, bad decisions. I don't think it will survive in long term.

I going to think like bears ... hoping for crash ..  :P

I haven't got time yet to fix my GPU rig so I did not mine it yet, not going to claim air drop, not involved in pre mine, etc .. so I just hope the project to crash so I can buy cheap ... ( I like to buy cheap computing cycles )

Highly elevated bitcoin also affects some of the altcos and btg is no exception. I think btg is like bch at first it will be pretty dull but now bch has a good price and hope btg is same bch.

Maybe look at it now, going down? Bitcoin is able to hit 10.000$ on days and it will still be going up so is it going down in your opinion?

Well hehehe I was checking twitter regards bch (and the bcash gag) and I came across to keynesian philosophy from Professor Faustus

"The reason to hold money and invest is not money. It is what you can do with money"

Well Bitcoin Gold is for hodlers I guess

They created billions of value out of nowhere just by basically copy and pasting the btc code and adjusting it slightly. Therefor it's still very high valued currently, in my opinion

I personally never expect something from BTG. It came to me as a free coin and I cashed it out on my exchange account to get valuable bitcoin and USDT so that I can buy something much better than BTG thing.

Yes, now is the time for holding $BCH!!

Cheers

IMHO Bitcoin Gold is a scam coin at best. Its for little kids who think its a junior BTC and can get in and get loaded. Its not BTC, its a scam or shxtcoin. Enjoy, stick to the bigger coins  ;)

We can now see that Bitcoin has risen sharply this week, and Bitcoin is set to see the strongest bid adjustment so far this year, which will give BTG a strong comeback and will soon reach 1000$

I think that every single upcoming Bitcoin based crypto will be worse and worse ... I mined BTG for a couple of days and BTGPool statistics were 10x lower than statistics on whattomine.org I truly dont recomend people going into it.

Honestly, it is nothing surprising.

When people get access to their forked coins they often always just dump it as soon as they get it. Supply and demand, basically. When futures were being traded the price was completely artificial and now it's just returning to where it's supposed to be.

It could even go under 0.02 BTC, that would not surprise me.

Sell BTG
Buy BTC

BTG hardfork doesn't seem to be the hardfork everyone is excited about. Some speculations were said to be about BTG going to have a good shot on the crypto but turned out to be that Bitcoin Gold hardfork has earned negative criticism. Hopefully this will be addressed by next year and prove us why bitcoin gold is really created.

The future bitcoin fork will become the next shitcoin, Because that was issuing by some person. As far as i know just like bitcoin gold. The developers keep a lot of the pre mined token to dump it into the market.
