So far none of the exchanges have come in support of BTG which is totally opposite the BCH fork scenario where some of the major websites have supported BCH lot earlier than the fork date.

I still dont want this shitcoin at cost of my BTC. Always remember if its not transparent enough better don't take the risk!
Some exchanges have but the shitty ones and I am not surprised. Honestly, this coin is going to end up even more shitty that BCC the way it is. Looking at their website, there is just only one single wallet available for it. It is still possible though that after the fork, we will see some wallets or exchange for it but until then, fingers are crossed.

It's not just crappy exchanges like Yobit now. Bittrex has now announced support for the fork, and they are one of the largest altcoin exchanges on the market. I think they are looking for some hype to pump volumes after the account locking scare recently.

There is/was definitely more support for Bitcoin Cash. This time, Bitcoin miners (and the Unlimited supporters who wanted miners to decide consensus rules) don't have any reason to back the fork. But frankly, this fork hype just makes the Segwit2x fork look more and more silly. I'm beginning to think that's the point here! Maybe the point of Bitcoin Gold all along was to cause fatigue around all these Bitcoin forks.
Where did you see that bittrex has announced the support of Bitcoin Gold ? Any link ?
