View parent comment

I want to keep holding but I’d rather move it to more modern storage location than the paper wallet

Your paper wallet is just a single address and single private key I assume? And the address is a non-segwit? Moving to a “modern” wallet will give you 2 benefits…

1. segwit address for cheaper fees later down the line

2. the ability to use bip39 seeds with an additional pass phrase

But there’s nothing out of date with your old wallet.
