Bitcoin gold is a proposed hard fork on the Bitcoin network that will change the proof of work algorithm to equihash. The main advantage of this is to break the reliance of bitcoin on ASIC mining and switch to GPU based mining. When the fork happens, this will cause a chain split, and all bitcoin wallets that have bitcoin prior to the split have both bitcoin and bitcoin gold (not bitcoin cash)

Sir,
Spot on. You hit the nail squarely on the head.
Unless readers are academics - researching for facts; or reporters that simply rehash events laced with opinions; people always gravitate to, and are captivated by Good Storytelling.
That's where both the writer and the reader make a connection.
Result?
Reciprocal joy.
Imagine that?
Upvoted your comment and following you now.
Namaste,
JaiChai

I have been on Steemit for a little over 2 months, and most of it out of town, but still I am learning much about how it works. The one thing needed, I think, is to make it simple for people to understand so many more will join. Yes, it is good to have super brains running things, but for most who want to connect with others, it is best for them to feel comfortable with knowing all is running smoothly. Perhaps, like investing in a mutual fund, where there is a specialist doing the work for you on the various alternatives available.

I totally empathize.
It is difficult to explain the monetization of social media platforms; much less the cryptocurrency that fuels the whole Steem ecosystem in the background.
In my experience, to attract new Steemians, I simply pose these quick questions:
What do you prefer, giving your time and energy for free to Fakebook, RED-it or Instaflam; where THEY monetize your efforts?
Or would you enjoy getting rewarded - no matter how small the amount, initially - for doing exactly the same thing you're doing now for free?
Anyway, thanks for taking the time to reply.
Namaste (my prefered definition of "Namaste": I recognize the divine in you, my friend),
JaiChai
P.S.
Think "meritocracy" and "complete economy" and you begin to understand the benefit-ratio reward system of the Steemit platform. And BTW, I haven't been a Steemian very long either. I am just a guy who is Fakebook averse and spent a lot of time in the cryptocurrency and disruptive technology space.

Coinbase is not likely to provide the bitcoin gold you are owed until they deem the "blockchain viable." Don't expect to have your bitcoin gold for at least several months after the hardfork with coinbase. For reference, they still have not provided anyones bitcoin cash if I'm not mistaken.

Bitcoin Cash is the real Bitcoin that was forced to fork off since "Bitcoin" has been taken over by Central Bankers via DCG and Blockstream. The only reason the Bitcoin Cash fork survived is because it had WIDE support from the largest holders and earliest adopters to make it happen.
Bitcoin Gold is just some crap thrown together by Blockstream CEO Adam Back to muddy the waters and confuse people.
Bitcoin Cash worked because there were enough miners (the whole reason crypto works) who want to keep the original vision of Bitcoin going, as well as businesses, users/investors, and exchanges. There are no miners mining "Bitcoin Gold" and no real discussion anywhere about it because there is no interest.

Why not take the simpler option. Switch to Dash. Dash has ultra low fees and 1.3 second transactions +PrivateSend. Dash also has a self funded treasury eliminating the possibility of a hostile takeover by the bankers. Dash is already set for 400MB blocks and has a clear roadmap to bring cryptocurrency to the mainstream.

The only selling point of BCH has over Dash is that BCH has the "Bitcoin" brand.

I have Dash too, but that's not what this is about. This is about the fact that the bankers have taken over the /bitcoin code repo, and have added segwit to make it a banker coin. Since early bitcoiners were able to preserve Bitcoin as 'Bitcoin Cash', now there is a paid troll campaign to poison the well with this "Bitcoin Gold" crap.
At this point, I prefer Bitcoin Cash because I don't necessarily trust the Masternode system, and I like that Bitcoin Cash has at least 4 development teams with more coming. I understand Dash's system of Masternodes voting on development, and I think it will be an interesting experiment to see how the two different systems play out.

Totally agree on the first part. For the second part I don't like the fact that BCH has no governance model. Also BCH isn't self funded. Nobody gets paid from the network to work on BCH. Also the nodes are not payed in BCH. The entire block size debate was settled in a very small period of time in Dash. BCH had to go through so much trouble to stay true to Satoshi.

I'm not sure a governance model is a good thing. Bitcoin Cash now has 4 different development teams, making it the most decentralized at the development level.
I like the MasterNode idea of Dash, but I have my doubts about it as well. Seems like you had to be in really early to become one and it was very quickly closed off to all but very rich.

Thanks for the great videos and content Michael! Education on cryptocurrencies will definitely help more of us adopt them and be able to recognize the pattern of markets and how they behave over time. Probably a good time to buy some bitcoins once it goes down in a few days.

Bitcoin Gold is just a poison-the-well tactic being used by Central Bank ran Blockstream.
The REAL Bitcoin had to fork off as 'Bitcoin Cash' since the Bitcoin Github has been taken over by THE Central Banks via DCG, AXA, & Blockstream.

I've always been a big proponent of non-mining cryptocurrencies.
It neutralizes the influence of the current "Mining Mafia" and its inherent HUGE carbon footprint.
But like everything in the space, the alternatives have pluses and minuses.
For example, exploitive premine before ICO, lopsided ratios that just make another form of Cartel in POS schemes, insidious tokens as "gas" (masked fees per transaction), etc.
But I am confident that sooner or later, the "Goldie Locks" coin will emerge - not too hot, not too cold...
Namaste,
JaiChai
P.S.
The things I mentioned above are discussed in more detail - and in a whimsical fashion, in my post "The Cryptocurrency Diaries: A Day in the Life of a Bitcoin". I think you and all the cryptocurrency-inclined Steemians will enjoy it.
