Someone recently showed me this article:
https://cryptorank.io/news/feed/65b2f-bitcoin-wallets-created-before-2016-may-be-vulnerable-billions-at-risk.htm
I'm sure you're aware of this. I am wondering if you can help me.
In april 2015 I created 10 wallets and split my bitcoin up over them. Generated them offline on an old freshly formatted linux machine. I'm happy with my method of storage and the coins have been safe ever since. I've never been worried...until now.
I really don't want to move the coins to my hardware wallet as I have other crypto stored on there and don't like all my eggs to be in one basket.
How unsafe is an offline generated bitaddress.org wallet from 2015? do I really have to move this btc?
