Just released official BTG mining guide (with comments from BTG team):
https://howtotoken.com/mine-bitcoin-gold-ultimate-guide/

Will be appreciated for comments.

I have been mining pool and solo mining BTG for weeks, what do you want to know?

Today there is only one pool "POOL.GOLD" and its been running 3 weeks and idiots directing 1000K sols/sec has to it so they can re-direct the hash to a profitable equihash pool ( no working software )

U must have a "G" address in order to mine, but they turned that off, easy to mod the current code to enable 'mainnet' just two lines of C++ in bgoldd-daemon.cpp that need to be commented out.

It take 2-3 days to download the BTG main-net block chain, may want to run prune to speed up the process, but then unless your solo mining, you don't need the full node,

Run the full node for a minute to get your 'G' address via CLI, do it now, don't wait until they release the code on github.com/btcgpu

POOL.GOLD is a scam, find a pool that works ( none right now ) that is paying out,

As of now there is no block-explorer that works, so there is NO way to know that any testnet coins have been paid out

*

Current release date will come&go like they last 4, NO way in hell this bitch will be ready 12nov

They haven't tested the testnet code, its not 100% implemented, most of it doesn't work

They haven't even written most of the new main-net code, where the hell is it going to come from?

Beware that 1000k sols/sec have been directed to pool.gold that be $1000 USD in zencash a day, if 12nov people start mining in MASS, then the re-direction of hash pool.gold to make these people up to $100k/day, if say they get 10M sols/sec hash-rate on pool.gold by IDIOT miners, hoping to get free shit-coin.
