BTG - BitCoinGOLD - blockchain is Live! * Segwit use unlike BitcoinCash * Decentralizing Bitcoin Again.

What is the purpose of Bitcoin Gold? (DECENTRALIZING MINERS) and Staying on Segwit.

The purpose of Bitcoin Gold is to make Bitcoin mining decentralized again. Satoshi Nakamoto’s idealistic vision of “one CPU one vote” has been superseded by a reality where the manufacture and distribution of mining equipment has become dominated by a very small number of entities, some of which have engaged in abusive practices against individual miners and the Bitcoin network as a whole. By changing Bitcoin’s proof-of-work algorithm from SHA256 to Equihash, all of the specialized SHA256 mining equipment will be obsolete for mining the Bitcoin Gold blockchain. Thus, Bitcoin Gold will provide an opportunity for countless new people around the world to participate in the mining process with widely-available consumer hardware that is manufactured and distributed by reputable mainstream corporations. A more decentralized, democratic mining infrastructure is more resilient and more in line with Satoshi’s original vision.

Is Bitcoin Gold a competitor of Bitcoin?
No. Bitcoin Cash and B2X are hostile forks that use the same PoW algorithm as Bitcoin – SHA256 – which results in a permanent state of conflict over a finite amount of ASIC mining hardware that is required for solving SHA256 proof-of-work. Bitcoin Gold, on the other hand, uses the Equihash PoW algorithm, which cannot be solved using ASICs that have been designed for Bitcoin. This ensures that Bitcoin Gold is not in competition with Bitcoin over limited resources. Instead, Bitcoin Gold will have an entirely different mining infrastructure, consisting of general purpose computer hardware (GPUs).

Salt Lending - SALT https://membership.saltlending.com/register?r=H6Vyv
(Salt Lending will be accepting SALT payments on loans at $25.00 per SALT Token, it is under $5,00 NOW!)
BNB Binance - https://www.binance.com/?ref=10982607 (If you trade on Binance and use BNB to pay for the trade you pay -50% less for the transaction fee. They also pay out dividends annually I believe. Please confirm)
SXS Spectre Public ICO 1 ETH = 2000 SXS https://spectre.ai/?r=gSTIX4 (HUGE)
ADST AdShares ICO 1 ETH = 2500 ADST - https://ico.adshares.net/?pto=0x07FB9DFA9936f674D2Ee8735C94C7ec8e70273C3 (Simular to ADX AdEx) ADX is aprox. $1.00 USD and is way under valued.
