Patrike, Please add BTG in MPH pool list and add it to profitability switching too. Bittrex had just re-openned BTG wallet so auto exchange is back online again. Adding pool manually doesn't add the coin to profitability switching.

Thanks
Best Regards
I'm looking into how to support BTG in the best way. Right now it's a bit messy as it first was considered to be Equihash BTG (based on Equihash 144,5) by most sources. Now it's considered to be ZHash (also Equihash 144,5), but it still requires a personalization string unique to this coin.

MPH still list the coin as Equihash BTG, while WhatToMine and Coincalculators recently moved it to ZHash.

Awesome Miner is currently doing all setup based on which algorithm you are mining, not the coin. It's possible to manually set a personalization string, but there should be some concept in Awesome Miner that makes sense of all this. Setting up mining was difficult enough with the large number of mining software and algorithms, and if each coin also start to have their own parameters, it will get even more complex. The personalization parameter is of course different depending on mining software as well, so setting it once on a pool i just a partial solution.
