Recover Your Old Multibit Bitcoin Wallet

Yes. Multibit Classic (.wallet files) recovery is one of our specialisms. Despite the software being discontinued in 2017, the wallet files remain fully recoverable when the file is intact. We have developed specific tools for the Multibit Classic encryption format. The main variable is your password — any partial recollection significantly improves success probability.

Yes. Multibit HD uses a different format to Classic — it stores wallet data in a folder structure (.mbhd) and uses a 12-word seed phrase. Password recovery for the HD format and seed phrase reconstruction are both supported. HD recovery is generally faster than Classic recovery due to format differences.

The software discontinuation does not affect the wallet files themselves. Your Bitcoin is secured by the private keys in the wallet file, not by the software. The keys remain valid on the Bitcoin blockchain indefinitely. What discontinuation means practically is that standard recovery tools are not designed for these formats — which is why specialist expertise like ours is needed.

This is a common Multibit issue caused by the software's blockchain synchronisation becoming outdated after discontinuation. The Bitcoin is almost certainly still on the blockchain at the correct address. We can verify the balance on-chain and, once access is recovered, ensure the full balance is transferred to a modern wallet.

Possibly, depending on the wallet type and password complexity. For simple or short passwords, recovery without any hint can still succeed. For very long or complex passwords with no information at all, the probability decreases. We give you an honest assessment before starting — and charge nothing if recovery is not successful.
