ChipMixer: do you have any special preparation for the Bitcoin Gold fork (October 25)?
At the previous fork (August 1), ChipMixer quickly ran out of chips when many people tried to exchange "new" Bitcoins for "old" Bitcoins that still had Bitcoin Cash in the private keys.
This can happen again, as ChipMixer is the only service I know that just gives away all coins they get from Bitcoin forks.
I believe that it's going to be the same as what happened in the Bitcoin Cash fork, since they would need to manually move all the Bitcoin Gold coins from their chip reserves. I haven't thought about this in the last fork, but using ChipMixer to double the amount of coins in the fork chain is a very profitable idea for who is doing it.

Send 1 BTC -> Withdraw 1 BTC and 1 BCG chip -> Sell 1 BCG -> Send 1 BTC + BCG trade profit -> repeat.
