Here is what I'm trying to do:

I go to: https://iancoleman.github.io/bip39/

Then I put "Supply my own source of entropy"
Mnemonic Length: Use raw entropy 3 words per 32 bits
Entropy: I put my 12 words from multibit seed
Derivation Path: I click on BIP32
BIP32 Derivation Path: m/0'/0 and tried also m/0'/1


Then it provides me with BTC addresses but none of them are mine, checked them all

Is there any other site like this that I could try or did I something wrong?

Thank you for the help.


Don't check "Supply my own source of entropy".

Put your 12 words from multibit seed into the text box marked "BIP39 Mnemonic".

Click the BIP32 Derivation Path tab and try m/0'/0 and also m/0'/1 again.

Now its giving me addresses and after trying for about 1 hour I only recovered $40 with the private key. This will take me years to verify each address as this wallet is SO long , and multibit HD provided me a new address for each new payment.

Is there any way to resolve my client again?


Which are you importing your private keys into?

If you use electrum you can import them all in one go. You don't have to import them separately, you can import a list of them.




Download electrum 2.6.4 portable from here (because the latest 2.7 versions are buggy).

https://download.electrum.org/2.6.4/electrum-2.6.4-portable.exe

Create a new folder and copy electrum-2.6.4-portable.exe into it, then double click it to start the wallet.

An install wizard window should open. At the top of it select the "Restore a wallet or import keys" option, then click the "next" button.

Another window will open with a box in it that you can type your list of private keys into.

After that click the "next" button and another series of windows should open. Leave each window's settings as they are and click the "next" button in each one until the wallet opens.

You can leave the password boxes blank, the electrum wallet can work without a password, and its password is not the same as your multibit wallet's password.

When the wallet opens it should sync within minutes and show your Bitcoins. You can use it to send them wherever you like.
