Hi,

I found this article that shows how to claim the fork coins using a special script... Anyone can explain (step by step) how and where to edit and run this script on python?? i couldn't locate the following variables in the script file (claimer.py) to change them (<cointype> <source transaction ID> <source private key> <source address> <destination address>)

The link to the articale:

The guide in the link you posted is fairly straightforward and noob-friendly.
I don't think it can be dumbed down more.

If you can't do it yourself, LocyeV has a fork claiming service and will claim all your forked coins for you.

I followed the steps listed in the guide but i got stuck on where to insert my addresses and private keys (which i can not trust wallets, services... for it)
so if have an idea on how to do it please advise if not thanks for your reply

Why don't you try graphical wallets Coinomi and Bither/Bitpie for most of the forks?

I highly recommend taking a look at the output from this script, https://gist.github.com/ottoteixeira/c5ba96ff296ddf95b36e498654faf871. It's a helper script that generates the calls to claimer.py. I have been successful in claiming both Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and Bitcoin Gold (BTG) using both scripts.

DM me if you have questions.
