Bitcoin Gold (BTG)

[EvilDead750]

I'm hoping back down to $120 like it was a few times before. Maybe even lower. Maybe some whales with cold wallets will thaw out and unleash a ton of them.

It may lead the trend of bitcoin fork, but i really dont look forward to this coin, the dev team is not sa strong as BCH or the following fork coins like SBTC

Isn't anyone excited about Bitcoin being decentralized again? Just like Satoshi Nakamoto envisioned. Why aren't Bitcoin purists jumping on board with this project? Taking power away from Bitmain - having lots more small time miners supporting the network all over the world.

Well, I think a lot of people are realizing that miner centralization is not that big of a threat. Between Segwit activation and the $10,000 price, I think it's clear that the miner incentives in Bitcoin are sound. We are also seeing several new mining ventures (Halong, GMO, DMO) expected to come online in the coming months to compete with Bitmain. The market is recognizing that there is demand for non-Bitmain products. And also that with lots of capital, mining is still very profitable.

I get there are other good GPU hashing projects like Monero and Z-Cash. This is the only GPU mining coin with the BITCOIN name. I'm sure people that mine Bitcoin think this is crap but I bet you once this baby is up a running people are going to soak it up all over the world. Especially Japan and Korea.

Am I crazy?

I think there is hype potential, true. Still holding onto my BTG myself. I don't have much faith in the developers. They should really hire some devs and communications people now that they have a top 10 coin (with premine!)....

BTG hacked again? 17 hour age ; Bitcoin Gold GitHub hacked, main windows wallet steals from users.

I warned you about Bitcoin Gold. Be wary of that project, and the people, like Adam Back, who push it in public.

Someone is trying really hard to put BTG down. I wonder who is against decentralization 

This is very obvious at this point, all the FUD attempts, hacker attacks. That's the kind of decentralization you get with BTC

BTG will survive these attacks and we'll see it at #1 spot in coimarketcap by the end of next year.

(re-posted from my own thread)
I wrote a small tool to convert Bitcoin addresses to Bitcoin Gold ones.

Just enter your Bitcoin address to see the corresponding BTG one, along with a block explorer link to quickly check the balance.
It also works vice-versa, you can convert BTG addresses to BTC too!

SegWit and multisig addresses are not yet supported (requires testing).

It's hosted on GitHub Pages here.
Source code: https://github.com/SopaXorzTaker/gold-address
Uses the bs58check library, by bitcoinjs (MIT).

Real value is lower than 5$ that is price of Vertcoin which is much better. BTG copy system of Vertcoin.

We're in buy zone right now, BTC will dump in the next few days and BTG will start another leg up.

I have some btc before the fork happen, so is the way to claim it the same as bch? Import seed to the btg wallet? And i've read that there's malicious file in the wallet before so is it alright now to download it and claim my btg?

Well for me BCH, BTG or even SBTC are all altcoins. I don't see any future in them as none of them can come near to bitcoin volume and usage.  These are just pump dump coins which should be used by us and traders to gain profit and that's it. I don't see any one of them becoming the main crypto currency even if they have technical benefits over original bitcoins.

I read the news about BTG and I think BTG is a good coin to be traded to get profit

to get profit??HOW? BTG price come down every hour / day, what u talk about?

[daberti]

Why do even the few positive posts about BTG have tp be pepperd with little bits of false negative disinformation? ................

Too much weird problems they brought about.
Still unsigned official wallet.
Three pumps a day at about 06:00; 14:00 and 19:00 UTC

BTC had a slower startup because it was the FIRST.
Clearly put: BTG has a huge market cap just because it started from a block height achieved by someone else and still has to pay the due.
Freshly minted BTG coins are nil.

So you mean if BTC price get higher BTG price will be fucked?

just stop FUD. If you started to use cryptocurrencies few days ago, please sell all your's coins and don't use them anymore ever. For those who know HOW it works:
I know you replied posts like this just for fun) but be a bit kindfully to others)

[Hueristic]

Has this shit crashed yet? Anyone got a list of the exchanges with trading pairs? Any word on POLO? Is Bittrex still the largest exchange it's listed on? Is the chain stable enough for Arbitrage yet?

Bittrex and HitBTC are your best bet, assuming you don't want to trade on Bithumb, which has the largest volume. I have no idea why the Koreans like this coin, but their exchange volume is 5 times Bittrex just on Bithumb.

Bitthumb is the biggest musical chairs game iv'e seen it is all P&D they don't care if it has value or not only if it has hype.

HitBTC is scam exchange so beware.

My humble reasoning for BTG being a good long term investment.

I know most people on this thread are hating on BTG and I agree mostly. However.

1) As far as the pre-mine of coins that everyone hates - it's much like an ICO only nobody has to invest/risk any capital. With ICOs the development team can walk away with all your money just like this project. Yes there were a couple of pre-school mishaps like releasing a wallet with a virus on it and having their git-hub page hacked. That's probably the hardest thing for me to accept. Anyways, many successful projects were ridden with skeptics and foolish mistakes. 

a) Nobody came forward as the creator of Bitcoin
b) Many people hated the first Bitcoin Fork
c) Creator of Dash mined a million coins for themselves before letting others mine.
d) Status ICO crashed Ethereum Network and possible raised too much money. I bought during ICO and everyone was so pissed saying worst ICO in history. They have been doing a great job from the start. It's a pretty large complex project.
e) Ethereum has kind of a Steve Jobs vibe. If this genius kid kicks the bucket it could send some shock waves.

PLUS

2) Isn't anyone excited about Bitcoin being decentralized again? Just like Satoshi Nakamoto envisioned. Why aren't Bitcoin purists jumping on board with this project? Taking power away from Bitmain - having lots more small time miners supporting the network all over the world. I get there are other good GPU hashing projects like Monero and Z-Cash.

I'm sure people that mine Bitcoin think this is crap but I bet you once this baby is up a running people are going to soak it up all over the world. Especially Japan and Korea.

Am I crazy?

Well when you have exchanges that hold massive amount of btc funds that they can use for free because they didn't distribute it then that is a market that is ripe for manipulation and Polo has become extremely shady and IMO has been usung customers funds for Arb without their knowledge.
