[ANN] Bitcoin Gold : Make Bitcoin Decentralized Again

[fortunecrypto]

BTG is only an altcoin wit bitcoin into the name...

I agree and all the other coin that will follow that claims to fork Bitcoin they are all the same as the other mineable coin in the market, but who knows this so called fork of Bitcoin might one day become one of the top coin in the market, once Bitcoin issues surface again.

so we can´t create a BTCG wallet at moment or?


thx

at this moment there is only https://glatinum.info wallet but it's not trusted.
better to wait till 1st Nov to see more trusted wallets.

Why the 1st of November? There's a plan for a wallet?

You probably won't see any until the network goes live

Has it been de-centralized again 10 days after announced? Good luck, everyone and happy mining Bitcoin Gold when it start

I'm still bullish on the decentralization thing and will be holding my coins.

As soon as the replay and wallets get sorted I'll be on an exchange buying ultra cheap (hopefully).  This could be the 'real' bitcoin somewhere down the line - though I doubt it with the shaky startup.

Running all 3 bitcoin clients at once is fun, can't wait to run 4

from where you got the wallet of gold? it's not available anywhere

Seems like bitcoin gold will be one of the top crypto coins surpassing others striving to go up.

Unlucky to not have this as of this moment.😏

I believe I have a share of Bitcoingold but I want a safe claim, so I would like to see more people claiming using a good and trusted wallet it's now a battle of two forked Bitcoin between Bitcoincash and Bitcoingold but not with Bitcoin.

Probably built from source that is available on github but not final and not recommended as it will be incompatible with the final version

As I am not a native english speaker, i don't really know if i have undrestood everything. Can you help me ? What is the coin max ? And there will be less coins at the begining, right ? The other coins will be mine years after years, right ? How many coins there will be at the end of the ico ? How many coin there will be after one year for example ? Thank you for your help !

The maximum supply will be the same as Bitcoin, 21 million. Bitcoin Gold is no longer an ICO. The Bitcoin Gold team will instamine 100,000 coins before public release. (8000 blocks) There will be 16,642,587.5 coins distributed to those who also owned Bitcoin at block 491,407, on a one for one basis.Therefore, the initial supply on release will be 16,742,587.5. (Many of those coins will probably end up being ignored. Never making it to market. I doubt Satoshi is going to claim his 1000000 Bitcoin Gold. Also, some exchanges have expressed no interest in redeeming the Bitcoin Gold on behalf of their customers.) After the release, there will be 12.5 coins produced every block. So in a year, there will be about 657,000 new coins mned. The next halving will be at block 630000 just like Bitcoin. After that, there will be halvings every 210,000 blocks, just like Bitcoin.

When will Bitcoin Gold be opened for mining? Thank you all.

the final build have replay protection? because i see that the build from github is without the replay protection

It didn't resist not even little in comparison to BCH but it is too early to reach at the conclusion. Once majority has done with dumping some whales may pump it had. I have my Bitcoins stored in paper wallet that is one of the reason of not claiming BTG at the moment and other of course the drop in its value.

[entropy0]

is it safe to split BTG from BTC?

[coinmediaco]

can you please tell us how you did you get bitcoin gold wallet?

Without it, it's a disaster to happen. Be carefull using it until then.

From the BitcoinGold Developer blog

Replay protection
We have spent several hours on the pull request for replay protection: https://github.com/BTCGPU/BTCGPU/pull/55. This method of replay protection is sufficient to keep all transactions safe from replay attacks, and we are very likely to merge this pull request in the upcoming days. In addition to that pull request, we received another pull request from an anonymous contributor for a different implementation of replay protection: https://github.com/BTCGPU/BTCGPU/pull/83. We will award him or her the bounty because the code meets the requirements originally described in the bounty: https://github.com/BTCGPU/BTCGPU/issues/51.  We are very encouraged with the success our bounty program has already achieved in the very early days of this project.

I read that the BX2 fork could kill BTC if enough miners followed it.   This fork would certainly be a centralizing influence if it succeeds.   Without replay protection BTC could be attacked.

Presumably BTG will get replay protection in place and therefore could serve as the new 'real' bitcoin if BTC was under too much pressure.   And 'core' and the community thought it was needed.

Therefore it would be sensible to hold the BTGs (whether you like the fork or not) as a hedge against this possible attack being successful.


I've got to say that I only half understand what I'm writing about  but that seems to be the gist of the many, many hours of surfing and reading that I'm doing!

1. If B2X got most of the hashing power then yes it could possibly kill off BTC but the chances of this happening are pretty low it may be a short term inconvenience but the miners will follow the most profitable chain and on launch B2X will be running at the FULL bitcoin difficulty so will need to have a pretty large value just to be profitable for the miners

2. Yes BTG will have replay protection and is due to be merged on github within the next 2 or 3 days as for saying that bitoingold could become the new bitcoin this is highly unlikely to happen but should see huge gains for early adopters
