The Bitcoin Gold Hardfork is What is Happening.
Just like when Bitcoin Cash was created, holders of Bitcoin will automatically get an equivalent amount of Bitcoin Gold for all of the Bitcoin they hold. If you hold the keys to your Bitcoin you will automatically get your Bitcoin Gold in your wallet.
Who will support & match your BTC balance?
Bitfinex
New CFD exchange - Bitstar
Bitexchange
More exchanges supporting the fork are sure to be announced. I capitalized big time on Bitcoin Cash when they showed up in my Bittrex wallet. Hopefully they will support Bitcoin Gold also.

But My Altcoins are Getting Hammered!
Now this event makes for an interesting time in the altcoin markets. People are FOMOing all over the place, selling their alts so that they can prepare for the upcoming fork. I personally did it a few days ago. This weekend the FOMO has kicked in big time. This means that stop orders are causing the alts to tumble. This equals blood in the streets.
What Are Your Options for the Bitcoin Gold Hardfork?
1. Sell Your Altcoins and Move into Bitcoin.
2. Sell Your Altcoins and use Leverage on Exchanges Like Bitmex.
3. Buy More Altcoins and Wait for the Post Bitcoin Gold Hard Fork Profits.
4. Hold Your Altcoins and Not Fall Victim to FOMO because they will be back.
