About Bitcoin Gold

Overview Image

BTG is a cryptocurrency with Bitcoin fundamentals, mined on common GPUs instead of specialty ASICs. ASICs tend to monopolize mining to a few big players, but GPU mining means anyone can mine again - restoring decentralization and independence. GPU mining rewards go to individuals worldwide, instead of mostly to ASIC warehouse owners, recreating network effects that Bitcoin used to have.

What is Bitcoin Gold?

Bitcoin Gold (BTG) is a cryptocurrency. It is a hard fork of Bitcoin, the open source cryptocurrency. It is an open source, decentralized digital currency without a central bank or intermediary that can be sent from user to user on the peer-to-peer Bitcoin Gold network. The stated purpose of the hard fork is to change the proof of work algorithm so that application specific integrated circuits (ASIC) cannot be used to mine the Bitcoin Gold block chain

Born as a community-driven project, it was initiated by Alejandro Regojo and Hang Ying as top developers. Bitcoin Gold hard forked from the Bitcoin block chain on October 24, 2017, at block height 491407.

Bitcoin Gold (BTG) Hard Fork Implements New Mining Algorithm in July 2018. The actual algorithm that was developed by Zcash (now, Electric Coin Company) was based on parameter set <200, 9>. Bitcoin Gold has modified this algorithm and is now adopting parameter set <144, 5>. This new algorithm is called Equihash-BTG. The new algorithm requires more memory than the one that was originally developed by Zcash. Soon after the launch, the website came under a distributed denial of service attack, and received criticism from Coinbase and Bittrex for being hastily put together, as well as including a developer pre-mine.

In May 2018, Bitcoin Gold was hit by a 51% hashing attack by an unknown actor. This type of attack makes it possible to manipulate the blockchain ledger on which transactions are recorded, and to spend the same digital coins more than once.[7] During the attack, 388,000 BTG (worth approximately $18 million USD) was stolen from several cryptocurrency exchanges. Bitcoin Gold was later delisted from Bittrex, after the team refused to help pay some of the damages.

Bitcoin Gold suffered from 51% attacks again in January 2020.[9] In July 2020 the version 0.17.2 was released as an "emergency update" in order to elude a long attack chain originated a few days before.

XRP News Today: Amid the volatility of the cryptocurrency market, Ripple awaits the SEC's next move.

Important Points:The overall market capitalization of cryptocurrencies drops to $2.041 trillion as XRP loses 3.40% in the midst of a wider sell-off.Talk of an appeal in the SEC v. Ripple case is heating up; this could effect the stability of the price of XRP.The SEC's decision to file an appeal will determine how much XRP will cost; in the upcoming weeks, volatility is predicted.XRP Falls During a Cryptocurrency Sell-OffAfter dropping 2.20% the day before, XRP fell 3.40% on Tuesday, August 27, finishing at $0.5674. XRP tracked the overall decline in the cryptocurrency market, which experienced a 5.30 percent decline in market capitalization to $2.041 trillion.Better than anticipated Investor expectations on repeated 2024 Fed rate cuts were put to the test by US economic data, which sparked a widespread sell-off in cryptocurrencies. On Tuesday, investor sentiment was impacted by US consumer confidence. Investor concerns about a hard US landing and the necessity of swift Fed rate cuts to support the economy were probably allayed by an unanticipated surge in confidence.SEC vs. Ripple: Talk of an appeal heats up ahead of the SEC closed meetingIt has been three weeks since August 7th, when Judge Analisa Torres rendered the final decision in the SEC vs. Ripple case. Regarding whether or not to file an appeal, the SEC has not said anything.Pro-crypto attorney Fred Rispoli reopened the appeals debate on Tuesday by posing the question,"Can any securities lawyers provide me with an answer on the likelihood of an SEC vs. Ripple appeal? If Ripple prevails on all fronts against the SEC, would the SEC be required to pay statutory interest on it as well?"James Farrell, general counsel at AscendEX and a former member of the SEC,“Saying that typically Ripple would post a bond securing the decision and delay payment while an appeal was pending. The cost of the bond would normally be assessed against the SEC in the event of a loss as part of the appeal's costs under FRAP 39 (at the 2d Circuit is discretion, just like any bill of costs).”Farrell continued,“Even more complicated if the Second Circuit remands for a new trial—for instance, if it determines that certain factual concerns should have prevented the award of summary judgment. All of this presupposes a cross-appeal. Because if Ripple does not file a cross-appeal, it is essentially admitting that it owes $125 million and that the appeals court is powerless to address matters that are not before it.”Farrell's remark emphasized the danger the SEC would run if it decides to appeal the Ripple case's decisions. The decision that Ripple sold unregistered XRP in violation of US securities laws may be contested by a cross-appeal filed by Ripple. A cross-appeal might undermine the SEC's regulatory strategy by creating a precedent for XRP sales.A SEC Appeal Could Happen Soon?On Thursday, August 29, the SEC will have a secret meeting where the Ripple matter may come up for discussion. An appeal might compel Ripple to file a cross-appeal and drag out the litigation until 2025.Early October is when the 60-day appeal deadline finishes, therefore the appeals process will go on even after the US presidential election. It might be necessary for the SEC to think about the potential effects of an administration change.The Future of XRP Price Depends on SEC ActionThe SEC's preparations for an appeal will determine price movements. The SEC's appeal might cause XRP to drop below $0.40. On the other hand, if the SEC decides not to appeal the case's decisions, XRP may aim to recover to $1.00. The July 2023 Programmatic Sales of XRP judgment caused XRP to spike from $0.4696 to a high of $0.9327.Investors should be on the lookout because news about appeals will probably affect XRP price movements. Keep yourself informed about XRP and the wider cryptocurrency industry by following our most recent news and analysis.Price Action of XRPEvery Day ScheduleBullish price indications were sent by XRP as it stayed above the 200-day and 50-day moving averages.A bounce back to $0.6000 might be supported by a breakout from the 50-day EMA. Moreover, a bounce back to $0.60 would portend a move up toward the resistance level at $0.6609 and the high of $0.6434 on August 7.Updates pertaining to SEC vs. crypto cases and SEC activity should be taken into account.On the other hand, a decline beneath the 200-day and 50-day EMsA would indicate a positive trend reversal and a potential decline below $0.50.At 46.54 on the 14-day RSI, XRP might drop below $0.50 before going into oversold territory.

Analyst: Spot Ether ETFs Debut Strong, But They Fall Short of Bitcoin ETFs

On July 23, the first trading day, spot Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs) experienced net inflows over $100 million. Though noteworthy, this excellent start pales in comparison to the remarkable launch of Bitcoin ETFs in January. According to analysts, Ether ETFs may encounter greater difficulties in attracting the interest of conventional investors.10% to 20% of the initial inflows for Bitcoin ETFs were realised by Ether ETFs on their first day of operation. Given Bitcoin's higher market capitalisation, this result is expected, but it raises questions about Ether's suitability for conventional investors. An important issuer of both Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs), Adrian Fritz, head of research at 21Shares, stated that "the Bitcoin Spot ETF has set new standards as the most successful ETF launch in financial history."Fritz noted that while Ethereum's value proposition is more complicated and will require more educational efforts to draw investors, Bitcoin's story as an emergent store of wealth is more straightforward and well-known. Fritz is still confident that Ethereum has the ability to attract a sizable amount of institutional interest in spite of these obstacles.The market's early reservations about Ether ETFs were allayed by the robust inflows that followed their introduction. Within 24 hours of the ETFs' listing, the Ethereum Volmex Implied Volatility (EVIV) index, which gauges the 30-day expected volatility of ETH, fell by 4 points to approximately 65, as reported by CoinMarketCap. The market had been pricing in uncertainty prior to the ETF launch, but Volmex Finance founder Cole Kennelly said that the "volatility crush" that followed indicated that ETF flows would stabilise ETH spot prices.According to Fritz, Ethereum's value proposition is more complicated and will require more marketing in order to draw in investors than Bitcoin's narrative of a growing store of value, which is simpler and more well understood. Fritz maintains his optimism over Ethereum's ability to attract substantial institutional investment in spite of these obstacles.The market's concerns about Ether ETFs' introduction were lessened by the funds' robust initial inflows. Within 24 hours of the ETFs' listing, the 30-day expected volatility of Ethereum was measured by the Ethereum Volmex Implied Volatility (EVIV) index, which fell by 4 points to approximately 65, according to CoinMarketCap. The "volatility crush" that followed the ETF introduction, according to Cole Kennelly, creator of Volmex Finance, indicates that ETF flows may stabilise ETH spot markets. Prior to the ETF debut, the market had been pricing in uncertainty.

This allows ordinary people with a regular computer to mine Bitcoin Gold, and also mine bitcoin just the way it was used to be during its early years. There are currently 17 million bitcoin gold in circulation and it is said to be supported by the miners who want to go back to the standard mining of bitcoins.

Bitcoin Gold was formed as a result of hard fork on Bitcoin in October, 2017 the purpose of scaling of the bitcoins. The main purpose of Gold coin was to improve the mining process in bitcoin, this is the process through which new bitcoins come into circulation. Bitcoin mining is a very lucrative exercise and most often requires a lot of resources both monetary and human resources. Often the most successful and profitable mining are amalgamation of many rigs with advanced systems.

Bitcoin- SV occupies 17th position currently in terms of capitalization of the market, which is an indicator of how far it has come since 2018 and in 2020 it has grown exponentially..

In 2018 Bitcoin Cash was divided into: Bitcoin Cash ABC and Bitcoin Cash SV (Satoshi Vision) after a hard fork which is said to be done to bring Bitcoin back to its original form. It is led by Craig Wright who had often claimed him to be Satoshi Nakamoto (founder of Bitcoin). The major difference between and Bitcoin SV is the block size used for the processing of the transactions. Bitcoin SV uses a 128 times higher than the BTC’s network.

Bitcoin Cash (BTC) was introduced as it was faster, cheaper and more scalable than bitcoins. In 2018 the bitcoin was further split into two parts: Bitcoin Cash ABC (adjustable blocksize cap)and Bitcoin Cash SV (Satoshi Vision). Fundamentally, both Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin cash SV use the same consensus . Bitcoin Cash ABC follows the full node implementation of bitcoin cash, thus has more support of investor, thus it is called Bitcoin Cash. What Bitcoin Cash does is fastens the process of transactions by increasing the size of the block which is on average 8MB to 32MB which was 1MB in Bitcoin, hence enabling the processing of even more transactions per block.

To address this among with few other challenges, Bitcoin Cash was introduced. So Bitcoin cash is an extended version of Bitcoin only, bitcoin cash block is eight times bigger than blockchain thus making the exchange and transfers quickly and effectively. The transfer fees of Bitcoin cash is also lower than compared to bitcoins.

Blockchain technology is a new-age system of record keeping which is based on decentralized technology to secure data and promote transparency. It is distinguished from the conventional methods on fundamental bases- it stores the information in forms of block, and each block is connected to the subsequent block. On the ledger of blockchain technology any kind of information can be stored but most prominently it has been used to store financial transactions. For example, bitcoin uses blockchain to store all the data through which all transactions can be tracked easily and no central authority has control of the currency but it is divided in the decentralized way.Another important part of blockchain ledger is that once the information is stored it can’t be reversed and hence the data can’t be forged in any way and makes the system very secure.Blockchain has been widely used nowadays in many systems such as delivery tracking systems, administration systems, storing confidential information of scientific labs and paths, financial ledger systems and much more. Businesses are adopting it to bring transparency into their system and create an effective system for working.

Cryptocurrency is a new type of currency which is in digital form which is used as a medium of exchange.

Most of the time, cryptocurrency is electronic-only and isn’t traded in physical form.Cryptographic money appeals to many individuals in view of its capacity to exist without a national bank and along these lines concerns secrecy and subterfuge. It appeals because of its capacity to hold esteem and not be inflated away by national banks that need to print cash.

In a distributed ledger, the currency’s movement is processed by computers in a decentralized network, to ensure the integrity of the financial data and ownership of the cryptocurrency. Think of it like a giant never-ending receipt of all the system’s transactions that is being constantly verified by everyone who can see the receipt.Crypto-currency is said to be people’s currency which has set to become an alternative for businesses to conduct and expand business worldwide with more ease.

Every payment is then recorded on the blockchain ledger which is an open source network and hence all the activities can be tracked. Which makes it possible to go back on the ledger and track the fraudulent activities such as using bitcoins you don’t own, undoing transaction history or copying a bitcoin. Cryptocurrency is often considered unsafe but if you are aware of the system , nobody can fool you.There are 3 ways in which you can get Bitcoins:You purchase them using your country's currency.You receive them by selling products or services.You mint them by solving the Advance mathematical problems, through which you can create new Bitcoins, but this could take many years.
