It's not safe to ignore your coins for years with the assumption that your recovery mnemonic will work forever. Your old wallet will always be recoverable, but the instructions could become difficult to follow as the old wallet gets older and older. See the Multibit recovery instructions for an example of a not-so-old obsolete wallet https://github.com/Multibit-Legacy/multibit

In either case, don't be stuck with a broken wallet app which has been abandoned by its developer. You will be able to recover your coins, but it could be very complicated. See the Multibit instructions for example of an obsolete wallet which can be recovered, but no so easily https://github.com/Multibit-Legacy/multibit

Go to http://multibit.org/ and follow the recovery instructions

MultiBit - A secure, lightweight, international Bitcoin wallet that supports Windows, MacOS and Linux. The MultiBit Bitcoin client is mainly for non-technical users, and the goal is to allow ordinary users to use Bitcoin faster and more conveniently. The main features are "second synchronization" (fast synchronization), the client can create and manage multiple wallets, and each wallet can create an infinite number of payment addresses. The only bad thing is that there is a transaction fee of 0.001 in the option, and it cannot be cancelled. Does this mean that each payment has to pay at least 0.001 of the handling fee? This is the client I use, and I highly recommend it. Website: https://multibit.org/

Build and run multibit legacy, import the encrypted key file, export to unencrypted key file, sweep the keys in electrum.

Why do you think Electrum can recover an obsolete Multibit wallet using a Multibit seed phrase? https://github.com/Multibit-Legacy/multibit

Instructions here: https://github.com/Multibit-Legacy/multibit

Perhaps this issue can help? https://github.com/Multibit-Legacy/multibit/issues/811 -- Basically decrypt the wallet file using openssl command line. Once you've done that you can import the keys into any wallet, electrum for example.

Download the offline version of the BIP39 tool via https://github.com/iancoleman/bip39/releases/latest. Right click on bip39-standalone.html and save the file.

You could make this with a Raspberry Pi Zero and the stand-alone version of the Coleman Web page+javascript https://github.com/iancoleman/bip39/releases/latest/

Since what I just said may be confusing... here it is in practice with a link so you can try it for yourself using Ian Coleman's Mnemonic Code Converter:

With Christmas coming around and the bull market upon us, I thought it would be a good time to remind everyone one about the art of mnemonic memorization. The idea is you take a BIP39 seed, then make a poem, story, limerick, or song using the words to help you remember. If you gift bitcoin, you can include the writing with the seed-card you provide to help the recipient remember as well. If you want to play along, go to Ian's BIP39 page and generate a valid seed mnemonic then see if you can't create a blurb of text that includes all the words.

You can try Ian Coleman's tool at : https://iancoleman.io/bip39/

13) Go to https://iancoleman.io/bip39/. There you need to change "Coin" value of the dropdown to "ETH – Ethereum". After that you can paste Secret phrase associated with Key 1 to “BIP39 Mnemonic” section

As I learned how to build websites, I wanted to use my new skill to help the crypto community in any way I can. So, I made a wallet generator website. It's like iancoleman BIP39, but with a nicer and more user-friendly design inspired by Tornado Cash, a simple way to make wallets from files/images, and support for Monero!
