BTG介绍 BTG is a new digital currency obtained by hard-splitting Bitcoin blockchain. Its main features are:
Similar to Bitcoin Cash, BTG also adds SIGHASH_FORKED, a hard-forked security mechanism.
BTG will be pre-mining. The BTG blockchain will initially mine in a non-public environment, meaning that there will be an initial allocation of early developers and backers.
The BTG will use the Equihash PoW algorithm, which differs from the BTC SHA256 in that hash computational power will be affected by the computing device's memory size. Therefore, ASIC miners will no longer be effective for BTG mining.
BTG current problems are:
BTG currently does not have a fully agreed code, does not have a replay attack protection mechanism, does not conduct adequate code testing and censorship, and has no unnamed code developer.
At the same time, the BTG code base also contains 8,000 (100,000 BTG) private pre-dug blocks. Developers may sell their pre-tapped BTG in the open market.
As of October 21, 2017, the BTG has not applied the SIGHASH_FORKED security mechanism described above and the development related to algorithm changes has not yet been completed. The date of the hard fork and the initial operation of the BTG blockchain have not yet been confirmed, and it is not yet clear whether a new block will be stable afterwards.
