Cautionary Tale: I messed up. Big time. Please don’t pile on harder as I’m already sick to my stomach.
NEVER EXPOSE YOUR BTC KEYS/Seed to an forked wallet.
Two days ago, I attempted to split my BTC Diamond and BTC Private. I could not get it.
At some point, I exposed my Ledger Nano with my BTC on it, to each of their Electrum Wallets.
Last night, my wallet was emptied of ALL my BTC, 13+ coins.
Here is the transaction.
Transaction Identifier: d96a7dcd9775456e36938ed2cb84e9d0cac46fad14b8c95008ed77d08f9f8de6
Went to: 3LsvHPBGuEVLZZDUiUuNdNi33T7zmTBC7o
Here’s a signed message so you know I HAD controller of the wallet. I’m not scamming, just utterly sick to my stomach for losing 13+ BTC.
-----BEGIN BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE----- @TheShillBilly Twitter

It appears that I have now lost my entire life savings. I’m not begging for a handout but rather attempting to warn anyone new to the space. I’m sick to my stomach with the loss and my only hope is to gain the attention of the culprit.
If you have any space in your heart, please return the BTC. I’d accept a fraction of what was stolen. Please don’t completely bankrupt me.

As an additional warning to those that are new to the space... If the amount of value that you are holding in crypto is such that you would be devastated if you lost it all, then you are holding too much value in crypto. These are experimental, volatile, and risky protocols. Do not risk your mental and emotional well-being.

I guess you know this by now, but for others that read this... You made 2 big mistakes: 1. You kept too much money in one wallet. 2. You tried to get forked coins without moving out your real money away first. I'm really really sorry for your loss ... 13 BTC wow.... Get together and think on the future. With some skill and luck you'll build up another money. You have to.

Thanks. Worst day of my life. No idea what I’m going to do.
I’m praying the culprits have half a heart to return some of it...
Please, I’m begging you, whoever you are.

And people, including me, were repeating it over and over. I think I even saw theymos write it. It's not worth it to risk your BTC to get a couple dollars worth of a forked coin. Especially one of those new forks like diamond, god and so on. You can quite safely get your BCH and BTG, but always think about it. Do you need another 100$ at the cost of 10k? Can you give more details OP? What wallets did you use? Where did you download them from?

I was using the Electrum Wallets from Github. The BPrivate was from Github. I think the BDiamond was too. BTCD might have been from their site though. I’ll verify.

Did you use the 'official' wallets? Or 3rd party wallets ? Would you mind sharing the wallets you were using (link to github) ? I am quite interested in finding out which of these wallets was the malicious one.

I’m so friggin nauseous I can’t see straight.
Why did you keep all your life savings in BTC? I really don't get it. Unfortunately the only thing that you can do now is analyse your actions step by step to find out which software has been compromised. You either have a trojan on your computer or downloaded fake wallets that had a backdoor allowing the hacker to get your keys. The money is gone either way, calm down, have some alcohol or try to get some sleep. The sooner you get over it the better for your health.

Well, I only did lost a lot of bitcoin because of my stupidity (but not claiming fork coins). But I was able to move on and get back on my feet. My point is I know its your entire life savings, but hey you need to get up and think ahead.
I'm sure that this is a very expensive lessons to learn and I hope that those reading the OP's post will take every precautions about claiming those free coins. As for the criminals, I don't know, and I'm sure that they will not return it back to you.

It's quite sad to hear.I have already seen some more people losing their hard earned coins when just trying to get forked coins.Already a person lost his bitcoins when downloading a fake wallet instead of downloading Electrum wallet from the official website www.electrum.org.So nothing could protect any one indulging in cryptos except his self awareness.

It so sad to loss almost all your savings from your hardwork. This could be a lesson to everyone,be careful and always keep your bicoins and other coins secured because in a one flash all what you have ,it might be gone. Digital bank is not secured,a lot of thief and scammers arround.

It is a really unfortunate situation, most probably he tried to extract the fork coins using the private keys keeping the bitcoin in the wallet and that is the biggest mistake he did, we have discussed about extracting the new coins and how to do it safely, the risk of using your private key with the coins in it is the most damaging thing you can do. I am not even sure who is behind BTC Diamond and BTC Private and i have not extracted anything till now, the only coin i moved is BCH and that too first moving my bitcoin to another wallet and that is the safest way.
