So here, that we have right now:- BTG blockchain will start off being around 110GB, on disk
Bitcoin Core currently uses 149 GB on my computer. How are they going to reduce this to 110 GB?
- The guys from Bgold had 16000 blocks premined (and it will be in mainnet)
That's 200,000 Goldcoins premined, if they get away with just 10% of what Bitcoin Cash is worth, they're instant millionaires out of nothing! If they manage to pull this off, I'm afraid we'll see a whole new fork-market emerge, just like the altcoin and ICO market emerged for the exact same reason.
I hope it'll fail, it's annoying to have to keep splitting my coins.
