bitcoin gold sounds like it's basically a generic coin with the bitcoin name on it.

I think bitcoinz is the best option, a true decentralized coin.

Hey guys,

just read a post about the new hardfork. I heard that the mining difficulty for Bitcoin Gold will be again "easy". Is that true? Can I use the cards I use for ethereum mining, for Bitcoin Gold?

Thank you in advance!

I would wait and see the outcome of November.  It can either make or break the coin and there is too much that is unknown right now. Is there a pre-mine, is there going to be a lot of miners, a lot of traders, or nothing at all. They are expecting people to trade a $5500 coin for something that is pretty unknown in value and every other aspect.

Mining should start within 1h allegedly https://bitcoingold.org/day-1-testnet/
There is a 100k premine, and about 200 people mine on testnet at https://btg.suprnova.cc/index.php?page=login

keep calm gyus, main net is not ready, better try to mine something useful right now.
we'll inform everyone on twitter before mainnet launch

today will be second attempt of testnet.

I followed the tutorial on Youtube, am mining with EBWF cuda miner 0.3.4b on pool.mining.sg , I just copied the configuration file example, removed the address there with a real BTC address and the miner started working correctly ? Now is this some sort of scam that I have fallen into or it is real ? Also how will we get paid from this mining pool cause it shows no details ?

Edit: Turned back to Winminer, nothing clear here as of yet for me.

BITCOIN GOLD create another opportunity for miners who has seeing bitcoin mining a very difficult task and unprofitable. I have read many articles on how to mining bitcoin gold in days to come with your graphics processing unit and it seemed easy to me compared  to mining some other coin. We have to take advantage of the opportunity created by this splitting in other to convert our unused tools to bitcoin gold mining.

Its not live yet as far as i know.
Nobody clearly explains anything even in these youtube videos and they never show or demonstrate AMD and NVIDIA mining process as its normally very different.

Dont stress about it.

There are 2 pools which currently offer this coin to be mined BUT its on a test network not live network.

Its just practicing.

For now i am using WinMiner also and having fun in the sun here in Johannesburg.

Until we hear more.

This bitcoin gold fiesco is taking way too long
This lack of information and communication makes me think that Bitcoin gold is gonna fail before it even has a chance
Theres also the pre-mine
Lets see where its ends up , Believe its gonna be released soon
It will be really sad if the b2x releases before this  that might actually be even worse .
Anyways 7400 usd price of bitcoin wew

Exactly what I was thinking.

They added some info today:

Testnet Manual. https://bitcoingold.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/Bitcoin-Gold-Testnet-Participation-Manual.pdf

Explorer. http://btgblocks.com/testnet/

I just follow twitter and slack for info. Looks like there is going to be a testnet reset on Nov 8th with a difficulty bomb, so that means not going live before then.

I doubt that Bitcoin gold would be a very popular. But I will try to get it.

[boo50]

Current rumors says 10-11 nov for mainnet.
warm up your cards before

[murcked]

Oh nice this is going to be a great fork if this is the case. Can't wait to run my GPU to its MAX.

[ben8jam]

Mining on Ubuntu, what will I need to install to get ready for the BCC GPU run?
