[ANN] Bitcoin Gold : Make Bitcoin Decentralized Again

[jubalix]

Hi I was checking the BTG explorer and some BTC I had on the BTC chain does not show up on the BTG explorer why is this, do we have to add a prefix or something

Bitcoin gold is offically stating that mybtgwallet is scam (https://bitcoingold.org/not-official-websites/)
But on this thread on page 1 there is still a link to it on Wallets (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2284289.0)...
Why are scam sites still linked by bitcoin gold officals?
And why is the price of this shit coin still going up

1. This is not an official Bitcoin Gold thread so it's not up to the Bitcoin Gold team to update it

2. The reason it's probably going up is on the news that Bithumb will be listing this for trade as this has historically made every alt pump

I am assuming, since it is an accouncement, that he is from the bitcoin gold team....

2. All these trading sites are losing a lot of legitimacy by listing this coin. Very sad development for the crypto world...

for me best wallets till now for bitcoin bitcoin gold :

mobile :
https://coinomi.com/

windows :
https://electrongold.org/

both wallets are safe and do the purpose, just move your bitcoins to other wallet before claiming your bitcoin gold.

Stay away from electron gold many reports of keys being stolen and funds wiped out

so what is the best wallet to use for import private key?

I like my Trezor. BTG claimed without compromising my private keys and it is SPV, so no need to download over 100 GB blockchain.

It might be due to FOMO effects. Everyone are worrying that they will miss the train of Bitcoin Gold if they do not buy it as soon as possible. After the effects, diaster will appear. It's only my theory. Let's give the market a couple of days, then results will show up for you.

why bitcoin should be split again into several parts, whether this is due to disagree between developers, I do not really understand

coinomi.com is best because it has instant exchanger inside, you can exchange bitcoin gold into bitcoins using same wallet.
electrongold.org is good for windows users.

in both wallets, move your bitcoins to new wallet before to keep %100 in safe.

it's not available for windows

Did xapo credit users with their bitcoin gold yet ?

Bitcoin is open source and therefore permissionless. Anyone can copy the code, make any changes they care to and create their own fork. Most altcoins are in fact forks of Bitcoin. The only difference with this recent trend is most forks opted to start their blockchains from scratch(at block zero) rather than fork off at a set block number like Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin gold.

why is BTG not listed on the right place at CoinMarketCap.com??

missing supply is known therefore it should be in the top 10 list.

Still preparing coinbase probably http://btgexp.com/info CMC needs information from the API to list correctly not sure why it's taking so long but probably busy indexing everything before the fork

I have noticed that getmoneysupply "http://btgexp.com/ext/getmoneysupply" is now showing the correct value now so might not be much longer

Using the current getmoneysupply this puts the marketcap at $6,724,498,523 so firmly in #5 and closing on ripple for #4 possibly within the next week

Happy to see another bitcoin competitor on the scene. I would like to find some video presentations to learn more about it.

Fork is much easy way to get listed on big exchange and attract the investors just name of innovation. All forked coins has no bright future but who good chance to make some easy through this airdrop. Bitcoin will real on the top because it's original one.

Bittrex has been crediting Bitcoin Gold...

Hopefully more exchange will do so too, any news about Poloniex yet?

They've been whisper quiet about it.

I wouldn't say all forks but most yes I think Bitcoin Gold so far is the only exception and does have a bright future it was launched with a purpose and that was to take away the power from the ASIC manufacturers and give it back to the users it will never rival core that will always be number one but BTG has a good following and starting to build a good reputation after the less than perfect launch

[hush]

After what Bittrex has credited to their customers other exchanges will follow them. They are very slow but there is no escape and blockchain.info will also add willingly or unwillingly to their users accounts balanced based on1:1. I also had some BTC's there and waiting for some announcement.

I cannot give you correct answer, but in my point of view and my knowledge about the crypto market. There are lots of projects simply based on name of Bitcoin, use Bitcoin as their prefixes, tried scamming around. Be careful.

its fine you end up on all forked chains...and is a way of exploring all viable models.

Perhaps a necessary step in Bitcoin inheriting its antifragility.
