Hello,

Does anybody know which wallets plan to support the Bitcoin Gold (BTG) friendly fork on October 1st? And what, if anything, should be done by the user?

Just check for their ICO or any official website that claims like OP said. If any such coin exists then it will be available on exchanges from where you can buy or sell BTG coins. But no more info from the OP so wait or search yourself on github or google it.

They have a official Github page, where you can follow their progress. Furthermore the fork is happening October 25th, as long as you have your private keys you will get equal amount of BTG.

You can also join their slack channel.

Bitcoin Gold? What the heck is that? I've never heard of it before. Btw, on marketcoincap, BTG is assigned to Bitgem.

Bitcoin Gold is a fork of bitcoin just like Bitcoin Cash. One of the notable changes is that they have changed algorithm to Equihash which makes it asic resistance and its a memory intensive algorithm. The idea is to bring back GPU mining plus some other changes.

They need to check coinsmarketcap, cos BTG (Bitgem) is alive and kicking.
Can't believe such a large organisation would make such a mistake.

I never heard this BTG coin. Can you guys please post an announcement thread so we can check - read their whitepaper and details?
If its equihash then its good for GPU miners. will make some profit but not sure if its listed in any exchange.

I found these two articles:

https://cointelegraph.com/news/suddenly-bitcoin-gpu-hard-fork-could-give-bitcoiners-more-free-money

https://bitcoinexchangeguide.com/bitcoin-gpu/

I believe they currently have Bitcoin Gold on the DEX (Waves Decentralized Exchange). Just like how they have Bitcoin Cash when it first came out.

IT would be good to understand if "Bitcoin Gold" has anything to do with gold or if the word "gold" has just been attached to make it shine...

I was thinking the same thing.  The Bitcoin Cash was somewhat successful in that BCH has some value, but at some point a fork will crash hard and hopefully these will die.  Any fork pulls value from Bitcoin, perhaps not a 1:1 pull but it does pull value away from it.  Furthermore, the only way Bitcoin and other cryptos will grow is by creating more demand but I think all these forks do is confuse newbies to cyrpto and thus lowers overall demand.

At what point does a fork become another alt-coin?  What differentiates an entirely new coin from a Bitcoin fork?

When it will be happen? I just heard about bitcoin gold recently. If the scheme like when bitcoin cash born, I mean fork on November, who is hold bitcoin on their wallet will receive bitcoin gold, this is good chance for buying bitcoin when bitcoin get deep correction.

He is talking about the BTCGPU? That should not be BTG or else it will conflict with bitgem which uses that abbreviation.
This is just a prediction and there is nothing real about it. It was talked about a month ago and should have been forked right after the BCH fork. But I guess it loss its way and made it to somewhere else where there is no human being alive.  Grin

                      I don't think so. It will only affect those who holds bitcoin(BTC), not particular but i have heard that there are certain exchanges or wallets that supports this fork. I am not also so sure to when will it happen, Oct 25 or maybe around November, there are also current updates that it wont happen, but that's I am not really sure of.

as many times as it was also forked in the past. the numbers are countless as a matter of fact. the biggest one to this date was bitcoin cash and it was only big because they made a lot of "noise"

Hopefully not many. Each one could dilute is true value and confuse newbies.

why? Cheesy
each time they fork bitcoin they do 2 things:
1. give free money to bitcoin holders
2. prove what consensus of the majority means when their fork never goes anywhere after a year.
