# Bitcoin Gold
***
I Just recently started to here on a planned hard fork on the Bitcoin network to split for October 25 called Bitcoin Gold (BTG). There seems to be  a lot of controversy surrounding this fork as the BTG team is very unorganized and the project is also tied to those perpetuating the NO2x movement.

# CashGrab
***
According to some reports there will be a pre-mine of 16000 Blocks, This might have already happened yesterday. 
to me it seems as though a phew saw how bitcoin cash came about and want a piece of that action as well.

Reports also state, you will be able to point those old rigs you have that were mining ETH and point them to BitcoinGold.

There’s been a lot pushing, happening in the bitcoin space between Core software supporters and Segwit2x proponents. Because Segwit2x developers and miners plan to raise the block size to 2MB, a group of Core supporters started a movement called “NO2x.”  Do you Remember August 1st Hardfork with Segwit? Same thing happening here but for obvious reasons.

>Anyone can fork Bitcoin at any time for any reason, and the community will ultimately decide whether that fork has any value. Many in the community believe that Bitcoin Cash and 2X are attacks on Bitcoin, while others believe these forks are useful and well-intentioned. We will not make moral judgments of our competitors or pretend to be able to read their minds, but we will criticize their poor engineering decisions and explain why Bitcoin Gold is superior.

The same thing was said about bitcoin cash but this just seems to piggyback from the successful hardfork , which is all it is.

If you do not care than, that is good I guess and if you want a part of the gold just do the same thing you did for bitcoin cash keep some bitcoin in you offline wallets. 

# My point of view (Quote)

>This is a clear fraudulent attempt to piggyback bitcoin cores marketshares. Developers should be transparent about the 1600 pre-mine blocks because it looks like a cash grab. I hope many of the exchanges will ignore this one.

Or it could legit be something of use. 

Just be careful.
