Bitcoin dominance of the cryptocurrency market stands at 49.8%. With the hardfork due on October 25th, will holders temporarily move their funds into Bitcoin to get the free Bitcoin Gold? If they do, expect a dip in altcoin prices and grab your favourites at bargain prices.

So this is the question I have been asking .. You move say $200 into bitcoin right? What amount of Bitcoin Gold will you receive and why is it not better to buy Bitcoin Gold once its forked a day or two thereafter and not but into bitcoin just before? Cheer$;)

If all goes as planned you hold 1 Bitcoin on October 25th you will receive 1 Bitcoin Gold for free.

I wasn't saying it is a bad thing to move into Bitcoin before the fork; I was saying that if a lot do then the price of other coins should reduce making it a potentially good time to invest.

how will you just "receive" 1 free BTC gold? whos gonna give it to u? and will it just appear in your wallet?

Ye ye i hear you mate .. so effectively if you hold 0.0034 bitcoin thats how much bitcoin gold you will receive right? See the thing is lets say I fractionally buy bitcoin now for arguments sake $100... I get 0.0034 bitcoin gold which may equate to only $14 maybe In my mind better to wait till after the fork and get Bitcoin Gold way cheaper is my thinking right here or not? I am not saying I am right I am essentially asking a question?? Cheers brother ;)

@craigcryptoking Yes, if u hold 0.0034 BTC you will also have 0.0034 Bitcoin Gold. I don't see your argument about waiting until after and buying Bitcoin Gold because you will get it for free.

Ye but if you hold no bitcoin you won't and buying bitcoin before the fork may be more expensive than buying bitcoin gold?? Cheer$;)

@nabes Essentially Bitcoin will split into two after the hard fork: Bitcoin and Bitcoin Gold. There will become multiple blockchains, one blockchain following one set of rules, one following another. These two chains share the beginning of their chains, but there is a distinct point in time where they diverge. If the transaction where you received bitcoins happened before that point in time where they diverged, then your coins will be in both chains, so no matter which one is eventually selected, you'll be on the 'winning' side.
