Title: New to armory Post by: ryerkes on March 04, 2014, 07:22:40 PM Considering using armory for long term storage. Why does it not ask for a password when sending bitcoins or on launch? If I have armory setup on my computer someone uses my computer they can launch it and send bitcoins.
Maybe I missed it but shouldn't the launch or the send of bitcoin trigger a security event?

I guess the most secure method is with a hot wallet, watch only wallet and an offline wallet with no internet access.

Encrypted (Both online & offline):- Requires a password to sign transactions, image at bottom of thread of example. No encryption:- Requires no password to sign transactions. Image of three wallets:- https://i.imgur.com/buy2q5N.png Example password box:- https://i.imgur.com/3b2fEmC.png Offline wallet is just a interface over the other two, so, if the offline computer has an encrypted wallet, you'll still need to enter the password there before you can sign it. |
