Company / organization behind the wallets
Bither Wallet is owned by Beijing Dejiacai Co.Ltd. and is registered in Beijing. The team behind Bither Wallet has recently developed the BitPie wallet. Since they are very busy promoting their new wallet on the Bither Twitter account, it is difficult to tell whether Bither will be replaced at some point by BitPie or they will continue improving both. Also with changes to the laws in China it's hard to know what the future of Cryptocurrency market there will be.
