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.
While we do believe Bitcoin Gold is worthless[1], we intend to drain all available chips at Bitcoin Gold blockchain. 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.
This should remove any incentive to abuse and avoid chip depletion.
[1] Bitcoin Gold has premined 200k which at BCH price would result in 20k BTC.
are you saying to prevent abuse, you are going to move around BTC chips so none will have BTG available
or you simply are going to transfer all BTG from eligible chips to another address you own
for e.g. I'm holding a chip (with privkey) before fork and planning to claim BTG,
are you going to transfer BTG from that address before I get the chance to do it?
