Can someone enlighten me on the upcoming bitcoin fork? and bitcoin gold?
other says that i need to hold my bitcoin and it will be duplicated as bitcoin gold is it true?
In ~ 100 blocks, the Bitcoin Gold developers will take a snapshot of the Bitcoin blockchain. The UTXO set will be copied so any coins you hold on the BTC chain will also be held on the BTG chain. However, it's not a live fork. The developers are apparently pre-mining the chain and publicly launching the chain a week later around November 1st.
The Segwit2x fork is a bit more worrisome. In that case, ~85% of miners are signalling that they will change the consensus rules and mine a different blockchain with bigger block sizes in mid-November. That alone is no big deal, but major services are also signed onto the deal, some of whom have said they will follow the chain with highest difficulty and call that "Bitcoin." That means they'll follow the miners. In that case, there could be a lot of confusion amongst users and investors. It could be chaotic and a lot of people could lose money if there is no replay protection. I could see a lot of lawsuits coming out of it.
