Title: New Here, Have Armory Questions
Post by: slfmde on December 19, 2013, 03:56:13 PM
Hi there,

I read the forum rules and am creating this post so I can get some questions answered. I have some questions about Armory and cold storage. Mainly once a cold storage wallet is created with Armory can I just send coins to an address within that wallet without going through the signature process each time?

Thanks

If you send from address not in cold storage then yes, your cold storage address can receive coins anytime

Great thanks. Just to make sure I have a good grasp on this. Once BTC's hit my Coinbase account I can send them from there to my cold storage wallet simply by using an address in the cold storage wallet?

Yes.
You will need going through the signature process only when you will want send the Bitcoins from the cold storage.

The cold storage is good but don't forget to secure the rest of your computer slfmde.

I think I have it set up correctly....

1. My cold storage utilizes the 'offline' version Armory on a netbook that does not have access to the Internet.
2. Then I created a watch only wallet in Armory with my 'online' desktop.

Does that sound right?
