Hi,

First post. There's only so much you can google on this stuff!



 I've managed to figure out that there's this thing called a wallet generator like the one at bitaddress.org where you can go and create an off line wallet using ubuntu. There seems to be something similar for litecoin at litecoin.org


So generating just an address and a key on paper will be enough for someone to go to an exchange and start to trade in those two currencies right ? No large "chain" needs to be downloaded, correct me if i'm wrong.

What i'd like to know is - can i also just generate an address and key for other crypto currencies in the same manner without any dowloading of anything else. If so, where do you go to generate an address and key for them ?
