Bitcoin splits again, creating a new cryptocurrency called bitcoin gold, question that have any future?
I am doubt about the future of bitcoin gold BTG due to there are some question must be answered
1. We don’t know who the developers are
2. We don’t know what the code looks like
3. We don’t know if replay protection has been implemented

So What Should we Do?
Sit and wait. It’s important to realize that the fork hasn’t actually happened yet. All we have had so far is the snapshot of the blockchain which the fork will start from. Added to this will be a private pre-mine of 100,000 BTG (8,000 blocks) for the developers before anyone else actually gets to start playing.

China's cryptocurrency ban may not be short term, says BTCC CEO.
BTCC CEO Bobby Lee recently shared his views regarding China’s ban on trading cryptocurrencies, and it seems that he is more skeptical than most internauts. According to him, we should not expect China to change its mind soon and that the government’s goal was to hit Bitcoin prices.

South Korea’s Central Bank Chief: Bitcoin is a Commodity, Not a Currency.
 Bitcoin will be recognized and regulated as a commodity rather than a currency,
the head of Korea’s central bank told lawmakers at a parliamentary audit.
So be ready for pay the of bitcoin for users come from south Korea.
 https://t.co/ofsj6I3y21

the government always calls bitcoin a commodity instead of a currency for tax purposes, it has something to do with their tax laws which are different from other countries that is why they take a different approach.

you can see US did the same, but Japan called bitcoin a currency, takes taxes from investors and removes taxes from those who use it as a currency.

with more adoption i do believe more  countries will do what Japan and a couple of others did.
Yes just there are two choice for the government of countries related the law of bitcoin and other digital coins,
bitcoin and other digital coins be considered as assets or properties,
 then the government can takes the benefit due to getting taxes from the investors of the digital coins
Or they can consider bitcoin and other digital coins as currency everything depending on the rules of countries.

I agree with the idea to advertise bitcoin on TV but must there are the comercial products in bitcoin's advertise on the TV due to the projects or products muat pay the cost of bitcoin's advertise on the TV, i don't see the chance to advertise bitcoin on TV if there are no products related with bitcoin and unfortunately the mostly projects based on bitcoin are open source projects.

Could be huge guys. Seems the Omisego has been supressed for a long time, but unlike many other they have actual technology, actual backing in the real world, and a customer segment that will actually use it.

Thoughts and future prospects on the coin?

University of Sydney’s Red Belly Blockchain Scales 660,000 Transactions/Sec; 11.5x of Visa, 94,000x of Bitcoin. https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/university-sydneys-red-belly-blockchain-scales-660000-transactionssec/
New trials from the University of Sydney’s Red Belly Blockchain have found that it can process financial transactions 50 times faster than originally thought, making it quicker than Visa for worldwide payments.
The next stage for the Red Belly Blockchain is to make it available to all Internet users and eos may no longer be needed.

Quite cool, but EOS will do 1 million Ts/sec. with 100 CPUs according to Dan:

Quote
Our latest tests showed the Red Belly Blockchain can process more than 660,000 transactions per second on 300 machines in a single data centre. This is a notable improvement from our tests earlier in the year, which showed our blockchain achieved a performance of more than 440,000 transactions per second on 100 machines.

And don't forget that EOS is more than just transactions. It has a virtual machine to run contracts. Just like ethereum's EVM only faster. I don't know if that project from Sydney is about transactions or that it also has a virtual machine in it....

And i don't know are they serious to build the project due to it is still trials and how much their experience in the technology behind of blockchain, if be compared with dan larimer as we know dan is founder of bitshare and steemit,
He has good experience in technology behind of blockchain, his skills doesn't doubt in this technology. I will make updating if i have found something new about the Red Belly blockchain.
The other article related with Red Belly based on https://medium.com/@justindanneman/blockchain-just-became-obsolete-the-future-is-hashgraph-de4948609cbf  There are several things that stand out about this protocol and every other protocol claiming 100K+ TPS: they are all ignoring actual computation time and/or are based on UTXO.  In the case of Swirlds, they are only talking about timestamping transactions, not validating those transactions and while I didn't see explicit mention of UTXO,  it seemed to describe a UTXO based approach which effectively means you could never build a decentralized exchange or steemit on it. Red Belly is UTXO, it is not blockchain
