Bitcoin Gold DAG size?

Does anybody know?

It does not have a DAG size, only ethash algorithm mining has a DAG size.

Ok then. But I thought it was similar to Ethash?

No it uses SHA256, which can be mined with ASIC miners.

Bitcoin Gold will use the Equihash algorithm.

I see the thread title now, I was reading bitcoin cash lol

Indeed it will be using equihash, through plenty of people saying its a "scam" .

Which is why I am inclined to rather trade on these instead of mining... buy low, sell once everyone sent the price up, and then dump. Would be interesting to see what selling point it will start at...

So there's still no answer. Does anybody even know? Google doesn't seem to indicate so.

Given the scam signs why bother?

Funny how people always pull the scam card with everything they don't like.

Well their stub of a website suddenly has info now that I check it again. This is apparently their response to the reddit post https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2-g_coTRnPnNlM1R2F3am9CeWc/view

I like the idea of gpu mining, so happy to see how it pans out, but details are still slim.

Yup I'll wait to see how it pans out and what the interest is. If it beats my current R1500/pm Ethereum I'll move over.
