Hi,
I have a short question regarding the transfer from paper to other wallets, for example the web wallet. I have the private and the public key, but where is the possibilty to enter both of them to transfer it to my web wallet? Or do I need to use the Qt-wallet? And if so, how do I have to do it? If I want to add a new address it just keeps creating new addresses
Thanks
Hi,
You can only import private keys into the Linx daemon or qt wallets.
I see you found a reddit link that explains how to do it, but if you still have any questions we'll gladly help out.
We decided not to allow the importing of private keys into our web wallet for a very good reason. Web wallets are the least secure of all wallets and we are trying to discourage people from storing large amounts of coins on there. The web wallet really is just a nice quick platform for people to use for small transactions, especially people that are new to crypto currency. We have notices on the wallet website warning people against storing large amounts on there and suggesting that they use the local or paper wallets instead for mass storage.
In addition :
You can also import private keys into the
Coinomi wallet, where LINX will be available from the next software update.
Hope that helps.
