I bought some BTC in 2013 and then I used Multibit Classic v 0.5.14. So far I didn't use wallet and didn't make any transactions.
I would like to move my wallet to another PC, and since Multibit is already fading out - what will be my best path to continue?
Should I first install on other PC newer version of Multbit classic - 0.5.19, than copy all data from roaming folder from older PC to the new one? Should I saw then wallet on the new PC and with the new version 0.5.19?
Afterthat, should I move wallet to Electrum wallet, importing private key from Multibit, as it is explained on the KeepKey home page?
Pls advise me?

Cheers&thx

If you can start your Multibit Classic and it is working best way is to export your private keys and then use that keys in Electrum wallet with swap option.Depending on amount in your wallet there is also option to send your coins direct to another wallet/address,but since Multibit Classic have very low max fee it could be a problem.I do not remember what is that fee,but it must be at least 10 000 satoshi or more to use ViaBTC accelerator tool.

Importing PK in Electrum is possible but that keys will not be protected by seed,so best option is to use swap keys(need to pay fee for that),or if you can send BTC from MultiBit to Electrum direct.
