having bitcoin in a portfolio does not automatically guarantee you bitcoin gold
Some exchanges do not give you the new coin, just like with Bitcoin cash
So make sure you have your BTC on an exchange that does give them or store them on a proper wallet
and another way to go might be to buy altcoins that drop in the rise of bitcoin
Will bittrex provide bitcoin gold?
The bigger exchanges will and if you have your private keys and you're on an external wallet, then you will also be fine.
Obviously just DYOR wherever you have your Bitcoin.
@lalitkarnani, Bittrex will be fine.
