i dont mind creating a new wallet and send everything to that one. just hate to use the old private keys on one of these hard forks, because there are so many hard forks to claim out of which some of them can not be claimed yet. the whole system with claiming with private keys is too fragile in that way.

so, in short, create new wallet, send all btc over there.
on the third of january download ub wallet, use private keys of old wallet and see your UBTC balance... is that correct?

yes. but for me my seed is stored in numerous places and written down manually. redoing all of that is going to be a pain in the ass.

same here. i maintain a whole administration at a certain moment for this. i did also create a new wallet for bcash and for btc gold, just to be on the safe side.
good part of these was that there was only 1 hard fork at the same time. now there are many of them, with some (if not most) of them still waiting for the main network to go live, or waiting for replay protection (and even then i prefer to create a new wallet again to be sure)

i mean, if i use the private keys on the ubtc wallet, i can not be sure that they are not going to try them out on any of the other hard forks to see if something is still in there
