Paper Wallet Trust issues.
-
We have our Mother in law staying with us. I joked that I could do with a small valuables safe for my newly created wallets . She said “Oh, I’ve got one of those, you can have it.”. It’s only 30 mins fireproof. But It’s free! ;D
*edit* wrong model, it’s only 30 mins.

Sounds perfect :)

You can send all of your private keys to me for safe keeping ;D

You should look into REVLAR waterproof laser paper.

They have it at Amazon. Not cheap, but probably safer than laminating.

ooooooo thanks!

Paper wallets! That’s a good idea I wanted to try when I started mining and I’m postponing ever since!
Never really looked into this so,MrWyrm, mind if I ask you which software you used? The wallet itself?
-
I can also recommend the Piper for creating paper wallets. Again, not cheap, but really easy, and a great solution.

Currently, it doesn’t support FTC, but maybe if some more people from the forum are interested, he will write the code to generate FTC keys. Right now it supports BTC and LTC and does BIP0038 encryption.

I downloaded the Featheraddress package and ran it offline.

I’ve not had chance to test these paper wallets yet though. Having a few problems getting the wallet working on a fresh Xubuntu install.

I’d guess once Muddy’s brilliant FTC ATM is more automated for generating addresses there could be a cashless version for this exact purpose?

Well i did try this once with a Worldcoin address/wallet.
Created an offline address through the worldcoind (daemon), exported the private key and tried to import again into an online client… FAIL…
I’m not sure why it didn’t work but this stopped me from trying again at that time.

I scared myself a little with my test wallet in QT until I read that you have to decrypt your wallet using “walletpassphrase” for X number of seconds before using the “importprivkey” command. *hangs head in shame*
Blockchain.info sweeping process is much easier.

My wallets seem fine. I’ve tested and destroyed. ;D

Thank you buddy! I’ll give it a shot!
I also noticed in UM FTC ATM post that the official FTC client can be used the same way but it is way bigger and needs compiling so I’ll skip this one.
