Frankly I don't believe they will be succeed. BCH is alive just because have pretty good support of BTC miners. I think BCH as well as upcoming bitcoin gold will die next 1-2 years.

LOL, 1-2 years is a very long time to stay alive. most altcoins don't even last a couple of months before they get dumped hard, and then their blockchain dies and eventually they disappear.
i'd say if it stays around for 1-2 years, it will be doing fine.

despite what you said i have a different speculation about BTG, i believe that because it is GPU mineable and also because the fact that it nearly coincides with the death of ETH mining, there will be a decent support for it which can keep the coin going.

As far as i know you can get free Bitcoin gold if you have bitcoin
on the Exodus Wallet  before october 25.
In my opinion it is another fork like bitcoin cash and everyone will earn some free money nothing more than that.

Will be no fork on the 1st October. It's going to be on 25th October or 15th November. I don't know the list of wallets which are going to support new coin, but I suppose it's gonna be the same which supported Bitcoin Cash on the 1st August.

Is this supposed fork going to have a 'snapshot' on Oct 25th? or is the previous post above true and  it has to sit in a 'wallet' quote a few messages up correct....

If it is a 'snapshot' I will still think bitcoin gold is silly as f*ck... but I'll get more than dust out of it in paper worth...so meh.....whatever....

Another fork? Why? Is this just other coins trying to piggyback on bitcoin. I suppose it will still be profitable as people will still trade in it.
But what will be happening if there will be no miner will try to mine it and run the network, that forked coin should be worthless in my opinion, as you can see the bitcoin cash needs reduce its difficulty to give a profitability to the miners or incentives. And what about the next forked coin of bitcoin?

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.



Sorry, I'd like to know, have this fork taken place or it's planning to, cause I have not heard anything of such fork coming up, except now and in this thread.

We think the success of Bitcoin Gold depends on the leadership. We guess that it is an interesting idea.

Is there a way to mine BTG ? Is there a special wallet on Windows?

No, you are guaranteed to be able to claim your BitCoin Gold by holding it on any wallet where you can access your private keys.  Exodus is just one example of the type of wallet you can use.  This probably won't be much different than the BCH fork, where you could either hold it in your own wallet, or find an exchange that claims they will hold it for you, and distribute your Bitcoin Gold to you after the fork.

From what I've read, they are going to change the Algo to Equihash, which is supposedly friendly to GPU and even CPU mining.  But you won't be able to mine it until after the fork.

Does anyone know how will be a fork in the road? We will get again after the junction free coins or not? I'm not sure that on these coins you will earn money quickly. I like the ability to have hope for earnings in the future. Agree that life with hope is always more colorful than pragmatic existence.

Even the advertising strategy of Bitcoingold is not good. Bitcoincash didn't asked anything from the user and just presented their principle and roadmap to implement. But on the other hand Bitcoingold is advertising as if they are the next big thing.

Anyone trading in their alts temporarily to get the most BTG out of it? Or will rising BTC prices around that time (and corresponding dropping alt prices) make the added BTG not worth it?
