Bitcoin gold electrum wallet.

Excellent information. Thankyou everyone - was just about to post the same question.

[Ichitaka]

What will happen I I decide to buy altcoin with my BTC now?Will I still get the BTG before the fork?

[atecubanoS]

YES... Just read this thread from the beginning... 

[aliman00]

from the looks of it by the time we get our btg it will be worthless .... I guess many other people including me will dump it as soon as i get my hands on it

[qinotorez]

I think its impossible that when arbitrage becomes possible, that there are no group of whales pumping btg somewhere, we can even make a mutual fund to ask the Seoul whales to pump it...

[LeonardoDiCrypto]

It is always a mess to get this fork coins, because the forkers don't usually even care to make the process easy for users. Bitcoin Cash was another mess in this sense.

[naidray]

I kept my btc at electrum. This morning i checked my wallet and there is no btg so i think electrum doesn't support btg Does anyone has certain knowledge about this situation. Will we get btg or not?

Electrum is a stand alone decentralized wallet and that makes you have control of your fund. Like most people have said, all you just need is your private key. However, you should know that private keys are not to be toyed with and you should be careful.

If you are not sure what to do, look for resources online that can guide you on how to effectively get your BTG from your electrum wallet, you will definitely find one later on.

it is btcoin gold wallet ?
https://btcgpu.me/??!!!!!!!!!

[virasog]

If it was there that quick in your hands, then you would be holding something that is way too controlled by someone else, otherwise, the wallet is useless? So, there is no way either way that it would work out for you. Either you are being scammed now or later. So, really, the only way that it works out is if you hit the scams just right.

https :// btcgpu[dot]me/

no it is not, that website is a scam. the project code is not yet finished which means even if you wanted you couldn't have made a wallet and release it! there is no blockchain for bitcoin gold either!

if you download the binary that website offers, it will most probably steal your private keys and both your bitcoin and bitcoin gold from you and before you know it, all your funds will be gone.

always use the official websites to check and see if they mention any wallet:

Here you go for Electrum Gold BTG Wallet: https://www.electrum-gold.org

official btg wallet is not out yet. Stop posting fake sites

[HasHe]

Till now,no wallets have officially announced their support for bitcoin gold.Once offiicial wallet is released,you would have to enter your bitcoin wallet's private key in it to claim free BTG.But entering your private keys is a risky task and you may even lose all of your bitcoins.

So,better check that the wallet you are going to use for claiming free BTG is legit or not.If not,then you would have to lose bitcoins just as a guy lost his 45 BTC while trying to claim free BCC by wrongly downloading wallet from a fake website Electroncash.com.

BTG has no replay protection either. I would treat your first interaction with BTG as risky, when you import your BTC wallet you're taking a risk with the software you're using, when you make a transaction you're taking a risk that it could be "replayed" on the other blockchain.

The advice I have seen, that I would trust, is to move all your BTC to a new wallet before you touch BTG - that way if something goes wrong the more valuable BTC are already elsewhere in a wallet that will never have anything to do with BTG.

a good suggestion but remember that BTG is not released yet so it  doesn't matter if it has or doesn't have a replay protection! for now only those who kept their coins on exchanges have received their tokens and dumped them at a good price. the rest have to wait until it is actually released.

and they are working on a replay protection like bitcoin cash which works fine so by the time it is released it will have that.

Hello everyone.
The following table lists several potential scams that are targeting Bitcoin Gold users, some falsely claiming to be official BTG services.

You must wait for the BTG wallet to come out first. The BTG website is under DDOS attack right now. It was just attacked a few minutes before I types this...

where can i download the wallet ??

On their website.

It started off worth 0.07 which is not bad then people dumped it to 0.02 and last I saw it was as 0.03btc.

[johningreece]

Does electrum support BTG now?

[ebucha]

You can use the Electrum Gold wallet for bitcoin gold https://www.electrum-gold.org

This is a SCAM wallet as indicated here: https://bitcoingold.org/not-official-websites/

[bitcoinfuck]

Electrum doesn't support BTG. But! Here is what you have to do to get your BTG. Export your private keys from electrum, download official BTG wallet and import keys into it.
WARNING! If you import your keys into phishing wallet you will lose all your BTC!!!

give me link for BTG wallet, cause i tired importing it didn't worked

[jlanzago]

Electrum will probably not support Bitcoin Gold. And there are no trusted wallets at the moment that can actually import your private keys which can work in all platforms (for example, I do have a Mac). Therefore you should wait.
