Is it worth moving 1/2 a Bitcoin for the hard-fork?

[jojo69]

Totally worth it given that Bitcoin gold will have a substantial value after the fork which will most likely be the case.

seriously?

Why would you even bat an eyelash about a few dollars when you have half a Bitcoin? Just go for it lol. We don't know how BTG will turn out, but that's still a virtually zero risk move.

I haven't tried it but if you think that it is safe, well do it at your own risk. No one can predict what will be the result for the upcoming hard fork. So we need to think first before making a decision.

You have no choice, because your current wallet does not support it. Let's say for one moment Bitcoin gold become very popular and the price increase to the same level where BTC are now. <more or less $5500> Your decision to move the 0.5BTC will then gain you about $2700 <minus fees> in the near future or even a lot more, if it goes to $20 000 or $50 000.

There should only be one option, which is to move the coins to a storage option where you can get the free Bitcoin Gold.

The thing is quite clear,if you want to claim BTG after fork you need to move your BTC to wallet where you can control your private keys,and then at any moment you can claim BTG and keep safe your BTC.I think that easiest way is to download Electrum desktop wallet and just send your BTC there.

I doubt that price of BTG can reach big price,just look how is BCH doing now-for me it is the same thing,just another altcoin on market.But it is free money and why not take it.To move BTC to wallet where you can control private keys and pay few $ for fee it is certainly profitable.

Personally I don't think so. I don't think bitcoin gold will have as much value as bitcoin cash. The coin will be lucky to cost $150.. Your coins are with exodus, which is a very expensive coin. But the time you complete that alt to btc transaction, you will already be left with a few less coins.

Exodus, a very expensive coin? Are you drunk or what? Exodus is a wallet provider not a coin. And if you  search exodus coin on google, you will see that the first result is the exodus wallet.
I know exodus coin exist but the OP does not refer to that.

Hi all, confused about the hard fork.

Using Exodus wallet, and supposedly they do not support the Bitcoin Gold fork tokens...

The fees on moving a half a bitcoin with Exodus would be a few dollars I think.

Would having 1/2 a coin be worth moving my funds to a supporting wallet?

Thanks!
