Could you paste your pgp signature here at bitcointalk instead? Copy paste it into the opening message for example. It doesn't make much sense get it from the same website which authenticity I am trying to verify, specially over plain http.

Yes, done.

Thank you. sorry I didn't suggest this at first, but in adition to posting the key here (which greatly improves security) you could also upload it to a key server and update the tutorial to retrieve the key from a key server instead of from bitaddress.org.

It is fairly simple to do:
https://www.gnupg.org/gph/en/manual/x457.html

Anyway. Great work, been using it even more frequently as of lately. It is my favourite way of generating addresses as I can manually enter randomness, while many other wallets and address generators rely simply on RNGs which have been attacked repeatedly. All has been great using Bitaddress+mycelium.

I have another feature request if you're up to it:
in the wallet details tab, if the entered private key is bip38 encrypted, you could show the encrypted private key in HEX format too.

Either way, big thanks and keep up.

I like the feature that allows me to enter 99 dice rolls to generate a truly random address, but it is lacking the ability to encrypt the keys with BIP38 and so leaves the paper wallet vulnerable to physical theft.

How hard would it be to allow BIP38 encryption on the 'details' tab?  It seems I currently have to choose between allowing bitaddress to generate the randomness or having my paper wallets unencrypted.  Please let me use true randomness and encryption at the same time.  Smiley

I guess pointbiz will integrate this soon, but in the mean time - it is possible to do it here, this is (sort-of) a fork of bitaddress project with some extra features.

Hope this helps.

If an offline wallet was created in a version previous to v2.9.7 it could be hacked?  Like created on a computer that has never/will never touch the web.

20 btc reward for anyone that can assist me here;

I created an offline BTC wallet using a saved version of bitaddress.org html (version 2.76) on an offline macbook air using google chrome version 32.0.1700.77

I did the randomization it generated a new address I saved the public address and sent some coins to that public address, in the  next minute or so I hit "generate new address" by accident and it created a new wallet. I didn't save the private address but already sent the coins to that wallet. Is there any way to retrieve the previous address data? Is it saved in RAM anywhere or perhaps in the java?

Whoever can assist me in this will have 20 btc shipped to them immediately.

Regards

The very first thing you have to do is save the private key in non-volatile memory. Why would you not do that?

Do you mean you want to do a offline transaction?

If so, there are some alternatives to sign tx offline but they tend to be buggy sometimes. They're more tech oriented features.

I still recomend you use Electrum, import priv key, transfer to new addresses and NEVER reuse a previous address.
