I've never claimed by Bitcoin SV as well but I remember that Ledger has emailed me about this and it has led me to this page: https://support.ledger.com/hc/en-us/articles/360012270054-Bitcoin-SV-BSV-

And that page shows an SV lite wallet, which is electrum SV, not sure if that's what you are looking for and there's a way without downloading an SV wallet but maybe it helps.

I just cracked open an old paper wallet with an old Bitcoin private key from back in 2012. The key was generated using MultiBit Classic, long before it was called "Classic".

I had no problem importing the key into Bitcoin Core and Bitcoin ABC wallets, and was able to move the BTC and BCH into modern wallets.

I am not sure what to do with the Bitcoin SV. Right now it is worth around $190 each so I don't want to just throw them away. I spent about 30 minutes Googling for an online Bitcoin SV wallet that would allow importing the key. Can anybody recommend such an online wallet? If possible, I don't want to install any Bitcoin SV wallet on my computer or phone.
