Bitcoin Cash & Bitcoin Gold?

[samy_voc]

I thought this forum is a subset which only deals with ALt coins. You might get more information when you post  the same in bitcoin forum .

So other questions to ask would be...

When is the estimated time of the Bitcoin Gold fork? And will electrum support the split like they supported bitcoin cash?

Also is the fork only applicable to bitcoin or also bitcoin cash? Ie if you have 1 btc you will get 1 bitcoin gold, but if you hold 1 bitcoin cash do you also get 1 bitcoin gold or are they now seoerate chains?

Sorry if that sounded confusing lol.

As far as I know the Bitcoin Gold fork is about to happen at october 25th.
In terms of which wallets will support those fork I have no idea so far.
Needs to be seen I'd say. Not that much information available at the moment.
Forks only applicable for Bitcoin!
So you own Bitcoin, you will get Bgold. You own Bcash but not Bitcoin you will not get any Bgold tokens!

October 25 according to their website http://btcgpu.org/

And will electrum support the split like they supported bitcoin cash?

Electrum is an open source project and anyone is welcome to fork it and use it for their altcoin. surely someone will do that if there is enough demand and people were willing to run an Electrum server.
the Electrum developer will not support altcoins in the main Electrum repository as he has never done it so far.

so far your only option is to download the main wallet (bitcoin gold core) which is like bitcoin core a full node. with all the options of latest version.

Also is the fork only applicable to bitcoin or also bitcoin cash? Ie if you have 1 btc you will get 1 bitcoin gold, but if you hold 1 bitcoin cash do you also get 1 bitcoin gold or are they now seoerate chains?

as @Denker said above, it is only bitcoin. the airdrops are always with bitcoin

I don't believe in Bitcoin Gold, especially since it has been only a short period that Bitcoin Cash was created.

You will simply get it depending on the amount of BTC you own, even if that is 1/100 of a Bitcoin.

Hi All,

Does an individual need to hold at least one BTC before they can get the equivalent BITCOIN CASH or BITCOIN GOLD?

I have about 30% of one BTC would I be eligible for some?

If so, I know gold is not out yet but how would I claim bitcoin cash for the amount I have?

Cheers

Its doesn't matter that how much bitcoin yoy have. It contains that, which amount btc you have, you get the same amount of bitcoin gold/bitcoin cash.

thank you for your help - when will the fork be?
At which day do we need the BTC in our Wallet?
