Newbie question:

If I made copies of my wallet.dat, cut/paste into a usb, wrote the pass phrase on a piece of paper, and stored both the paper and usb in a safe box, would that be considered 'cold storage'?

Also is using this method safe when wallet versions are updated in the future as I would merely be copy/pasting the wallet'dat and using the passphrase to open my wallet?

How vulnerable electronically speaking is this, aside from physical vulneralbilities?

It's ok. I'd store the compatible client for that wallet on the USB too, just jin case.

So it should be ok but keep a setup file for that wallet version on the usb just in case...

If it is this simple in making a cold storage, I do not see the elaborate need for paper wallets and other methods. Copy/paste + text with password.

Another question: when updating your wallet verison, you would simply back up your wallet dat by copy/pasting and erasing everything else, installing the new version, than copy/pasting your wallet dat, correct?

USB keys can die. Paper can't.

And yes, correct. You can also import private keys into the new version.

What do you mean usb keys can 'die'? as in, physically malfunction/decay or corrode/erode due to ppor conditons overtime? I do plan on basically drawing it out every 6 months or so and updating wallet version/replacing it with new usb drive.

I dooappreciate you answers but english is not my first language. Thanks again.

Yeah, the fact that there is a possibility for them to malfunction, although it rarely happens, but still...

Online wallets are BAD.



Actually they are great to use them as hot wallets (fast wallets) , and small amounts.
They are much faster. No need to waitvfor sync. Ajd if u do 2fa they are pretty safe to. But ofc always save ur keys.

Electrum doesn't need syncing...
Nor multibit. It's not realistic to expect everyone to download dozens of gigabytes and hundreds of megs every day going forward. The future is light wallets that go through big nodes.

Yes. Especially the people who aren't so good with computers.
We that know more don't mind using bitcoin-qt Cheesy

The brilliant thing about being a government is you get to change the law - don't rely on your "rights" to protect you if it comes to asset seizure.  Ask a Cypriot.

True. But I'm okay for now. I'm hodling. Don't need no fiat.

What a boring week.

when you guys cash out big bucks.. do ye pay the capital gains or what? im wonderin how to get around that lol

I have a bank account that only my bank and me can see. No 3rd parties like the tax people or the government.
You should be able to make that in any bank in the European Union.
What kind of bank account is that?
I am pretty sure in my country, France, there is no such thing.

In Croatia it's called "tekuci devizni racun". No idea what's it called in English.

offshore account

Could be. But I'm from Croatia and this bank is Croatian. Although it's a part of a Swiss bank.


wow, you are so naive to think that your account in Croatia is invisible to the authorities and croatian central bank.


It's in the agreement. The authorities need a warrant to check, and it's pretty hard to get it when you have proper lawyers.

Backups.

Paper wallets are the only way to go.

But where do you keep it?  Your house could burn down and get robbed. 
And of it's at the bank you are trusting bank personnel and authorities.
It's not like safe deposit boxes have never been drilled.

Anything can be done to any of the cold storage. There is no 'perfect' system, just great systems.

Chances of someone hacking a BIP38 key are minimal. So, pretty much perfect Tongue

do you have record of what you paid for your btc? I don't..


It's not the BTC that's the problem. It's the fiat.
1797  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will bitcoin ever reach $1000 dollars again? on: June 05, 2014, 12:20:00 PM
We are still at around 50% off its all time high.

Predicting it to make new high is pre-mature at this point.

We are higher than 50%, the all time high of BitStamp was 1163 according to bitcoinity, btc price is 660$ now.


ATH on Bitstamp was 1200ish.
