soon or later, when you want to send your BTC from your paperwallet you will need to "import" your address to a wallet
Thanks,
I meant same process, If I could directly transfer the BTC back to Kraken without any other online wallet, just import my paper wallet address from Kraken.
you have to understand the different between
sending/transfer
BTC and
importing an address.
kraken provides you a deposit address, you have to send
BTC to that address (can't simply import)
if you have
BTC on paperwallet, you need to import to a wallet that support importing address (most does)
then you can use the wallet (as a tool) for sending the
BTC to your deposit address on kraken
does kraken charge fee on deposit?
I do not know if it is possible to import your own private key to kraken. Probably not, but there are some exchanges that allow that.
Easiest solution is to install eg. copay to your mobile phone and scan your private key with that, and then send the BTC to wherever you want without any fees except miners fee ofcourse...
there is NO exchange allows you to import address!
and using copay, are you sure it's
importing and not
sweepingif it's sweeping... you will have to pay twice, one tx fee for the sweeping and another tx fee for the sending to kraken
