Title: Multibit private key export
Post by: bitcoinrocks on April 27, 2015, 08:15:01 PM
How can I find out if the private key I exported from Multibit a while back is password protected?  Can I tell just by looking at the file contents?

Yes.

No password:

Code:
# KEEP YOUR PRIVATE KEYS SAFE !
# Anyone who can read this file can spend your bitcoin.
#
# Format:
#   <Base58 encoded private key>[<whitespace>[<key createdAt>]]
#
#   The Base58 encoded private keys are the same format as
#   produced by the Satoshi client/ sipa dumpprivkey utility.
#
#   Key createdAt is in UTC format as specified by ISO 8601
#   e.g: 2011-12-31T16:42:00Z . The century, 'T' and 'Z' are mandatory
