So basically we will get it but won't be able to trade it, right?
Hopefully we can mine it, before you can trade it
You can already trade IOUs on this at Bluetrade. https://bleutrade.com/exchange/BTG/BTC (But they are a tiny volume exchange.)
Yobit will be adding BTG balances in less than 24 hours. https://twitter.com/YobitExchange/status/922070167294791681 I suspect that they will be allowing the trading of the IOUs as well. (However, they are on the small end of volume as well.)
