I found out how to claim Bitcoin Diamond and Super Bitcoin today, now that Bitcoin Diamond has a major pump and I was looking for ways to claim both Bitcoin Diamond and Super Bitcoin another time. I only found one safe method. This can also be used for Bitcoin Gold and Bitcoin Cash, if you did not claim those already.
Warning: Send your bitcoin to a new wallet before you proceed!
- Download Bither and BitPie from App Store / Google Play
- Create a wallet and click the cog -> advanced -> HDM account recovery
- Scan qr code or enter the seed of your bitcoin wallet
- Let it sync and your fork balances will show up
- Go to advanced -> get BCD/SBTC/BTG/BCH
- Send your forks to the BitPie wallet
- Send your forks from BitPie wallet to exchange
If step 3 does not work for you, you may scan the private keys manually. App crashed when I tried to scan the seed. Maybe the electrum bitcoin wallet seed is not supported in Bither. So I had to scan each address private key manually. This is how to do that:
- In Bither wallet click the cog -> advanced -> import private key -> text
- Click the camera icon and scan the qr code, or enter private key
- Continue on step 4 above.
I hope this was helpful. If you have any problems, leave a comment.
Apparently these wallets are not new, so seems leggit. I tried with Bitcoin Diamond, it seems to work. I am now looking for an exchange that accept Diamond deposit.

Congratulations about your tesla car!
Olsm, I read your article on how to use Bither and bitpie application to claim bitcoin forks. I did all the process and it show me I have no getable coins....Does that mean i am too late to claim/get coins?
I scanned 19 private keys/BIP32 derived addresses already from https://iancoleman.io/bip39/. Is there a minimum of private keys i need to scan or do i need to scan all - meaning 100's or 1000's of lines ? Could you please advise me?
Thank you.

Claiming Bitcoin Diamond Fork easily with Electrum Wallet!
As you all already know, Electrum released a version 3.1.2 of Electrum Diamond, for the fork on December 2017.
anyway to claim the coins, you can download the electrum wallet choose your OS, once downloaded, open Electrum
do not use existing wallet file, you have to restore the wallet if you not used segwit..
Works perfect on Ledger wallet, Trezor Wallet, Bitcoin Core tested myself.
here is link: http://www.electrumdiamond.org/

Thanks for this. Just one question. Ive swept from exodus to electrum. My balances sho in both wallets though. When you say send BTC out, have I done the right thing by sweeping from exodus to electrum? Or do I have to actually SEND a transaction from exodus to electrum (which already shows my balance)
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

No, you should just import the private key in Bither wallet for whatever address you had balance at the time of the split of the forks.

Thanks for your reply. Im just confused about the first part where you warn us to SEND bitcoin to another wallet before claim. So Ive used a sweep into electrum from exodus instead of send from (to avoid a fee). Is it now safe to follow yr claim process even tho exodus shows a balance?I will be using my exodus pvt keys .
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Ah. You must send from exodus to electrum. This is because of increased risk from importing to another wallet. Create a new wallet in electrum and send from exodus to it. After when your exodus wallet is empty, import the private keys from exodus to bither.

I mean by that, that you have to make sure that all the addresses where you are going provide the private keys to Bither must not contain bitcoins any more. I do not use any hardware wallet, so I cannot help you with that. MEW if for Ethereum only ...
I believe you can use Electrum and create a new wallet connected to you ledger nano ....

yes, BCD in Bitpie and GetBCD in bither. And it works! Thank you!

Hi
I have checked BCD addresses that have a balance, but when I import the BTC key into Bither and check the 'Get Forked Coins' the getable balance is always 0.

Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Bither does not let you send directly to an exchange. It requires you to send to a BitPie address for some stupid reason. So you have to send from Bither to BitPie first and then you can send from BitPie to an exchange or another wallet.

I am aware that this is an old post, but just to post my reflection if somebody get stuck.
I tried using bither but was unable to select currencies, I was only able to select BTC.
So, I attempted with BITPIE and succeeded.
However as of 21st of February 2021, ios app had a bug which crashed the app whenever you tried adding private keys.
So, I have installed emulator for android and downloaded Bitpie there.
From there, after you create wallet, go to "Me" section -> Setting -> Import your asset and you should be able to handle it from there.
Thanks for the great article olsm, three years later this still points people into right direction
