Introduction to Bitcoin Gold

Bitcoin Gold (BTG) is a hard fork of Bitcoin that occurred on October 24, 2017 on block 419406. Bitcoin Gold changed proof-of-work algorithm [set of computer instructions] from SHA256 to Equihash rendering specialized (focused on doing one thing very well) mining equipment obsolete [no longer useful/no longer used] in an attempt to democratise [(make something available to, and controlled by, all people)] the Bitcoin mining process. BTG is extended by Lighting Network, which scales to route nearly limitless payments per second. Bitcoin Gold allows you to mine Bitcoin Gold with GPU. BTG implements a new PoW algorithm [set of computer instructions], Equihash, that makes mining decentralized (without having one central area of command) again with ASIC resistant algorithm. ASICs tend to monopolize mining to a few big players, but GPU mining means anyone can mine again restoring decentralization and independence.

What is Bitcoin Gold

Bitcoin is the leading player in the cryptocurrency market. However, it is the first cryptocurrency. Not only that, it is the most traditional one as well. There were many limitations associated with bitcoin. One such limitation is the increased centralization of Mining power in the hands of a few entities.

The best part about this algorithm is that it is crafted to resist ASIC. That means many users can take part in the mining process. They can do so with the use of GPUs or CPUs. The miners try to solve the puzzle. Once they are successfully able to work out the correct answer to the puzzle they add a new block of transactions to the blockchain. A particular amount of BTG coins is the reward that miners receive for their work.
