Hi guys,
I do HODL my BTC in cold storage while I'd like to transfer them on my brand new hardware wallet.
I was thinking to swipe the keys with MyCelium.
What is the safest way to do it?
I heard is not safe to make more than one transaction with coins swiped out from cold storage.
So would you advise me to send just a few satoshi to my hardware wallet to test or can I send ALL of them, after triple check of the address?
Thanx for any other suggestion

If I were you, I would have used https://coinb.in for this purpose. That's one of the easiest way to securely sweep a private key IMHO.
