Title: How many wallets am I limited to?
Post by: boconniff40 on March 07, 2012, 03:19:15 AM
I just realized that if someone knew your wallet code, they can figure out what you're doing with your account to some degree, considering that all transactions are public and can be traced throughout the block chain. Therefore my question is should we have multiple wallets?

Yes, you should. And yes, you can.

If you have the RAM for it, http://bitcoinarmory.com/ probably does what you're looking for (plus more), though the dev stresses it's in alpha.

Fwiw, the dev's on vacation, and version 0.5.1 has a bug some (including myself) experience where send transactions are initially declared invalid by Armory. The transactions still go out, and appear in Armory after one confirmation. Just a visual bug, it seems -- just make sure to check something like blockchain.info to be sure, or use an older version of Armory if it bothers you.

I've got to say that is pretty cool. I am going to give it a test run soon.
