1.) Gold.Pool the only working mining pool, part of TEAM-BULGARIA/YOBIT.NET
2.) GitHub.Com/BTCGPU home of the BTG source code maintained by the infamous "Gang that Couldn't Code"
[ There's also a non-working block-explorer if you wish to waste additional time finding non-existent testnet blocks ]

Where are people getting their BTG addresses that I see on the pools?
There are only two ways to GEN your own 'G' adddress for BTG.
1.) Fall back to an old rev on github.com/btcgpu, about two weeks ago they put some code in src/bitcoind.cpp that does an abort if your not running '-testnet'
2.) 2nd way is to use the current code as it is on github.com, clone&pull the code, and go into the source and comment out the two lines that call for the exit().
Once U have 1or2 above done, then run the daemon without the -tesnet, then go use 'bgold-cli getnewaddress' and you will get a 'G' Address, make sure to DUMP the priv-key and print all, cuz god only knows what these idiots will do in the future, these people don't know C++, they haven't a clue what they're doing, this is going to become the worst ICO/BITCOIN/FORK-FUCK in history of BTC.
The default way 'THEY' want U to do it is run daemon with -testnet, which will generate a 'mn....' address, that is fine, but the pool.gold only 'pays out to G', get it?? Only insiders who have G get paid, U got to love these people.
Once the bitch goes live the idiots will be mining to these non 'G' addresses an of course all the share/blocks found will go to the pool ( insiders ).
No real point of running the code and feeding it seed's the code is hopelessly fucked up,
Chinese ASIC guy ( reported Triad leader of Asian arm of BTG-INC ), had a blind one handed 'programmer' ( former hw guy ) name 'hx2bot', then they brought in the BULGARIAN team, ran by PROF-Starbuck ( has real PHD )
All these guys take good advice on github.com, and delete it, so U just know they're like the ostriche, if U want to know real about BTG, read the github/btcgpu [ https://github.com/BTCGPU/BTCGPU/issues ], don't read the 'issues' read the 'closed' that's the GOOD STUFF Here's the good news, for past two weeks IDIOTS are mining to the pool.gold ( all owned by same BULGARIAN MOB ), 1000K sols/sec per day of hash, at current ZEN-CASH, that be $1,000 USD/day of real pool hash redirected to however they want to make money. The only pool that works is pool.gold, but "WORKS" means redirecting hash, all the other pools aren't running cuz there is no software that works! Well except for the code pool.gold runs, Lot's of scammers involved in this bitch, dozens if not 100's.
Stealing BTC seems to be the common, wrap your head around that!
100's of Scam sites revolve around BTG where they're faux wallets that you can turn your BTC's into BTG's, heard of turning shit into gold? Now we have turning gold into shit
How many months and/or years will people commit their hash-rates to a pool that doesn't mine? A pool that has ZERO ROI? Because the pool targets a non-existent TESTNET?
