The news comes daily about the hard fork on October 25 about the appearance of Bitcoin Gold, and who doesn't know what a hard fork is a process of splitting any currency's Blockchain. It may be done for several reasons, such as fixing serious security loopholes in a cryptocurrency's source code, implementing new features and reverting transactions (as was the case for Ethereum's hard fork after The DAO was hacked). Hard forking requires a consensus of the majority of the nodes within the network of a cryptocurrency, after which they all switch to the new Blockchain, leaving the older version behind.
The Bitcoin split will take place on Oct. 25 as a result of sigwet 2x and the emergence of the new BTG "Bitcoin Gold", where drilling with GPU and each of its BTC on October 25 will receive the same quantity at BTG.
