Post by: kik1977 on July 04, 2016, 09:39:08 PM Is there a ready to go linux live disc so I can generate an offline wallet for cold storage? I usually do this: I have a live ubuntu on a usb stick, which also contain the webpage www.bitaddress.org I plug it into a computer and I boot it from the usb stick, keeping the computer OFFLINE. I open the page www.bitaddress.org (still keeping the laptop offline). I generate the paper wallets that I need and I save it to the usb stick. I turn the laptop off. I print the paper wallets using an offline printer that doesn't save anything on ram memory. I wipe the usb stick using the maximum level of security available (takes a few hours).
