Is BCG = Bitcoin Gold?
Only time can tell if they will add support for a new Bitcoin fork. Maybe if they have a market in the future, just like BCH, which is the cryptocurrency ranked 4 at Coinmarketcap, and the reason why it was added in Exodus.

wallet recommendation?
The best ones are for sure Electrum for PC and Mycelium for Android/IOS; Pool or not to pool?
You need to mine in a pool if you want to make money. It's simple just impossible to mine a block solo without a HUGE amount of hash power, like 150 PH/s which is totally not feasible for a regular user. You would be wasting your eletricity for nothing.

Thank you for that! I'm going to test my Time-Locked Address with the BCH chain in 5 days and post here if I managed to redeem my coins.

It's a good software for communication between teams and support between the devs and the users. People should be aware that they shouldn't click anything they receive, not only on Slack, but also in every other website/software - like Reddit, where there is also tons of phising attempts. Ok I am new but I'd say that 75% (Or more) of any messages coming from Slack are a scam.
Not true. When I used Slack in my daily basis, I joined more than 15 slack servers and I never received more than 3 fake messages from someone claiming to be a dev or a update bot sending malwares.

Didn't you setup any OTP 2FA while creating your wallet?
Do you still have your seed? If so, just go create a new wallet -> Standard wallet -> I already have a seed -> Put your seed and Electrum will automatically identify that this is a 2FA wallet. You now will be able to send your coins to a new wallet.
Or choose Wallet with two-factor authentication -> I already have a seed -> do the same as above.

This article is just dumb. It just keep using the same "advantages" to explain why X wallet is number Y, while almost every other wallet can do the same. - Jaxx number 3? Let's see what they say about them and why it was choosen for this list: "Anonymity is achieved by not asking users for any personal information while signing up for the Jaxx wallet."; Electrum, Mycelium, Armory, Core, Copay, none of those ask for any personal information. Plus, Jaxx is the most insecure between all of those I just quoted.
- Bitlox: "Users can generate dozens of wallet addresses for bitcoin transactions, which solves the address reuse problem."; The same as above. Almost every wallet does that.
- The only wallet I agree that can be put in that list is Samourai. But do they tell us why? No. "Samourai Wallet is a rather unique bitcoin wallet projects, as it is designed to keep transactions private and one’s identity masked."; I wonder which wallet does the opposite;

How did you know that their wallet are supporting segwitx2?
Check the website linked above. They publicly support the S2X fork, so the chances that they will follow the new chain is pretty high - or at lest for now, since they haven't released any statement. Honestly I heard some issue that is why i'm now processing my vault from coinbase to with my bitcoin and it takes 2 days before i transferred my bitcoin to primary account before i can send my bitcoin to other wallet.. Hoping that bitcoin will be withdraw after this issue soon.
Isn't this how the vault is supposed to work? Delays and a lot of extra verification to asure that you are the one withdrawing the coins from the Vault?

About HD Wallets I meant a case, when one generates a mnemonic seed and stores it as a key on a sheet of paper. The public address being shown is 44'/0'/0'/0/0 path address according to BIP.
The purpose of this: after sending funds from 0th address you don't need to regenerate your paper wallet - mnemonic seed stays the same, but next address will be deterministically known.
Furthermore, only an entropy generated after mnemonic seed could be stored. And as for MyEtherWallet, this seed could be AES encrypted, so the QR-code could be easily shown to someone who don't know your password, if you want an additional level of freedom.
In this case you can just generate a normal HD wallet and print/write down your seed. It will have the same security as an offline paper wallet but with multiple addresses instead of just one. You can use encrypt your seed with a password - search about BIP38; Whole this question appeared from the need of hodling good enough bunch of Bitcoins, Ethers, Moneros and LTCs. I need one sheet of paper for all of them, one interface to use them once, an ability to put keys not only onto the paper, but ask someone who I don't trust, to put them onto metal plates or whatever, because I'm paranoic.
That's an option where no third party will need to know your seed: https://cryptosteel.com/

i can see another mixer but problem is that i can see many mixer already ruining before you and more reputed .. Also i can see there not good review for any reputed or higher rank user for your mixer . I can see some review in your Website but that can fake .
Also can't see signature camping for your mining service ..
SO you need to get some good review form higher rank user in this forum so every one can believe on mixer because its not like small amount if someone mixing they will mix good amount of there coin ..
Hope you come up with this thing in future ..
I actually did a quick research and found every review in their prospective websites. Just look at each username and search them with Ctrl + F; You will see that the review is the same.
A signature campaign isn't mandatory, even WeiMixer started a signature campaign that runned for only 1 week and scammed a lot of users that thought they were legit. Maybe setup an escrow while you have no trust?

So, does that mean that we can't recover our BCH from time-locked addresses funded before the fork? I got one that will be available next saturday and I woudn't mind a few extra Bitcoins. Is there is any ETA?

A paper wallet generator just needs to work and be safe. People tend to use BitAddress because is the most known and reliable paper wallet that is around for over 2 years. If you want to generate a Segwit address ofline, you can use this website[1] which is also open source; [1] https://coinables.github.io/segwit/

coin hive takes 30% cut. as far as I read, they only take 1% here
Oh I didn't know coinhive takes 30% . So definitely this site is a good option. I will tryout your site. But I am not good in coding. Can anybody here help me to implement this in my site for a small price? If anybody can do this please pm me the details. You don't need to pay anybody to do something that easy. 1. Go to the website and put your Monero address to go to your dashboard. 2. Copy the whole iframe html code at "Distributed Miner" and put on your website.
The only 1% cut is a good advantage. The only problem is like I said before, the lack of an API and library. With CoinHive, I can for example, pay users to let the miner running, while this miner won't let me track who is mining for me. Plus, I tested both miners and I'm getting more ~10 H/s at CoinHive. If you want to just run the miner instead of using ads to pay your servers = Minero If you want to pay/reward users for their support, or track the miner proccess = CoinHive

Well if someone invests in 25 different coins. Are they really going to download all these wallets on their computer? If you use btc, eth and ltc, i understand you getting a wallet. But this would seem ridiculous if you download so many wallets on your computer for a coin that say is 10 cents? But do even coins that are 10 cents have their own wallet? However the other thing is how do you know those wallets are secure etc?
I had thought the benefit of bittrex was you didnt need to download any wallets anymore?
No. The "benefit" of Bittex or any exchange is trading your coins for others. If you want to use an exchange as your wallet, you are just dumb. Research what happened with MtGox or Bitfinex last year. Tip: a lot of people lost money. Here is a quick link for you: http://cryptorials.io/5-biggest-bitcoin-exchange-hacks/

What are the advantages of using your service instead of using CoinHive? The minimum amount for payment is 0.5 XMR, which is the same as CoinHive. While they also have an working HTTP API and a better JS library.
My suggestion would be to lower the minimum amount, so low-end users could at least try to get paid once in their life.

FYI regulation would be them simply saying, exchanges can stay open as long as they follow KYC rules.
Maybe if you are in the US or EU. China is a totally different government, and they want to have full control over all crypto transactions, not only avoid some money laundering. But I wouldn't even be surprised if they ban all the exchanges and only allow one controlled by them to operate. How can ? does not china have banned and will never be caught again? I am more confused at the policy of china. What really happened
China never banned Bitcoin. They only asked all the China exchanges to stop all the CNY tradings. They are planning to regulate those exchanges, or maybe even close them while they create one fully controlled by the government.

Nah I don't want to use Jaxx, have heard about it before no point of switching to a wallet already with a history of hacks. Would check out exodus. Thanks.
Don't.Exodus is equally prone to all those vulnerable hacks and certainly doesn't belong in the category of 'Safe Wallets'. Why? AFAIK Jaxx only major issue was the possibility of extraction of the seed that was stored decrypted. But keep in mind that even if that's a major issue, this can only be explored if someone got access to your phone and can break through your lock screen. While Coinomi will transmit all your Bitcoin addresses - not private keys or any critical information that may expose your coins to hackers - without any SSL. While Exodus is still kinda safe. Any wallet may be an "unsafe" if you're not careful with your OS. Even while using Electrum, you may lose your coins if you have a malware on your computer.

I copied and pasted the address EXACTLY as it shows up for my bitcoin wallet on a web based system however its setup for bitcoin not bitcoin cash.
Does that mean that the website who has my wallet, also have the money but has not given it to me because it was the wrong currency type or does each currency have an identical wallet address?
Thanks.
Are you saying that you sent Bitcoin Cash to a service that only supports Bitcoin deposits? All Bitcoins address are also valid for Bitcoin Cash. This means that if you send BTC/BCH to any BTC/BCH address, the owner of the address will be able to see and spend both coins. Just contact the service support if that's the issue. Some of them will help you, while others won't even bother recovering your coins.

The currencies involved were Bitcoin and Bitcoin cash. I think they have the same keys?
They do because they share the same address/private key space. An address and its private key are the same in both chains - even if the balances will be different. Is there anyway to tell if some person/organization has claimed the coins or if they are sitting unclaimed?
Yes. You can search the address in a BTC explorer to see if the address still has BTC and in a BCH explorer to see if they still have the BCH. Bitcoin Explorer: https://blockchain.info/Bitcoin Cash Explorer: http://blockdozer.com/insight/Would some of the wallets/websites involved have the private keys if they could agree to help?
Maybe. I have seen a lot of services not wanting to help a user recover its BCH sent to a BTC address. Others, will help you if you provide enought information through their support. So, you need to ask them if they are willing to help you.

Sooo can you please explain me how does this work? I give my BTC to bot, and he lends to people or osmeone else, and after certain amount of time i get it back with interest? Who pays loan back? People that i have gave btc or is bot just "buying low sell high" and after my numbers are adding up on settings that i have put up, he will pull back money and i will have it back on my wallet? This looks really good, i am just skeptical since i am not 100% familiar with it from this topic
No. You configure your account with your exchange API Key, deposit or buy some coins and store them in the exchange. The bot will automatically lend those coins for a rate. The bot is just a way to automate the proccess of lending coins at Bittrex/Poloniex/Quoine, which would need to be done manually and from time to time. This is a good way of earning a few extra bucks if you plan to hold for the long term and can/want to risk storing your coins in an exchange.
