RE: When is Bitcoin forking off?

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago (edited)

So if I understand it correctly, we get some amount in bitcoin gold if we hold some Bitcoin. Do we have to download some wallet until a fixed date to get it because there must be a new wallet infrastructure or did I get this wrong?

Sort:  

If you own some bitcoins and you would like to get for every bitcoin a bitcoin gold for free then you need a privat wallet installed on your PC (like Electrum). Such private wallet can grant you the private keys which you need in order to generate bitcoin gold for every bitcoin.

Attention! It is very important not to send or withdraw bitcoins on the day where the hard fork starts. In this case it is the 25 October. Otherwise a person can lose his / her bitcoins.
