Title: Super secure paper wallet using Keepass Post by: rumbitla on June 06, 2013, 08:00:13 PM I want to show a way to create a very secure paper wallet using Keepass password manager (http://keepass.info/).
1. Open your Keepass database 2. Add Entry, named "Paper Wallet" or so 3. Generate password - use "generate using pattern" - type h{64} 4. click "collect additional entropy" to enhance randomness 5. generate random password 6. you get 32byte or 256bit hex key, i.e. a0fe89a9dd8501b0e8f8bdf380a9d9acc0162685a73c46e42c898e48501e090e 7. That's it, this password is your Paper Wallet private key. 8. For convenience, turn this private key into base58 format: hex: a0fe89a9dd8501b0e8f8bdf380a9d9acc0162685a73c46e42c898e48501e090e ---> base58: 5K3BxtuHRu9Ka2pyFx9reG2cHnAvyjhQLYwBWhnM2s72pvHFW5v corresponding Bitcoin address: 1GCkJi13Crh3caceTUJisLgt4chQ4DzJwQ 9. Save generated password a.k.a. Bitcoin private key in Keepass Database.

If you have to generate it online, there is a possibility of it getting hacked since you have an internet connection. You can call it super secure if you generate it offline. However, it is less secure if you generate it online.

If you have to generate it online, there is a possibility of it getting hacked since you have an internet connection. You can call it super secure if you generate it offline. However, it is less secure if you generate it online. I believe you can generate it offline with keepass, and keepass is open-source. :) Title: Re: Super secure paper wallet using Keepass Post by: Kprawn on June 17, 2014, 11:28:20 AM Bitaddress.org still easier for me.
Goto site, save as html, unplug internet, run paper wallet, screen capture, print, Done. But it's cool thanks. |
