Thank you, it worked.
I still don't understand why the other sites didn't work  Huh
There's many possibilities:
1. The other sites already got abandoned from the owner since there's no more update from both of the sites (last updated on 2018 and 2019).
2. They didn't support to encrypt/decrypt with BIP38 more.
3. Under maintenance/bugs/vulnerability etc.

I created this doge wallet in the spring of 2018, but I used it again to create a bitcoin wallet in gen 2019, with the idea of ​​having my ticket to mars to be redeemed in 2029  Grin

Do you think those funds are at risk? It's 0.1 btc, wouldn't they swept it already if it was compromised?
If you create/run it on online, your funds are at high risk since you're trusting "them" about your private keys.

Right now 0.1 BTC worth for $4,900 while hardware wallet (e.g. trezor, ledger) only cost around $50-$150. It's better to move your funds to hardware wallet.
