What to consider when buying Bitcoin Gold
Buying cryptocurrency can be a risky endeavor, but there are precautions you can take to help mitigate risk:
- Don't FOMO buy coins: Spend time researching a coin before you decide to invest, particularly if the coin's price is spiking for seemingly no reason.
- Stick with well known exchanges: Unless you're an experienced cryptocurrency trader, stick to more well known crypto exchanges to help avoid the possibility of losing your money in a scam. When possible, store your crypto on a hardware wallet instead of on an exchange.
- Look into the coin's founders and developers: Anonymous teams are often a red flag, so if you can't find details on the creator of the coin you may want to consider investing in a different cryptocurrency.

Where can I buy Bitcoin Gold? I dont have any other cryptocurrency to buy BTG with, only cash. For the love of god I cant find anywhere that will allow me to buy BTG with cash and then simply transfer the BTG into a wallet. Please help!
Hi Ross,
Thank you for your inquiry.
It may still be too soon after the fork for cash to be supported by any exchanges It may be challenging to find out who offers cash purchases that also supports BTG.
I hope this information has helped.
Cheers,
Harold
