Ok something is really weird with Bither,
So I have A private Key - Un-Encrypted - I also have a public Key obviously.
I have 2 phones.
Online = Hot << tried Scanning Watch only address bither Cold, I aimed the the camera on the Public QR code, Nothing happens, So I then thought.. AHHHH! maybe it only recognizes Bither cold wallet addresses, Then When I scan the QR code from the bither in the Hot wallet as a watch only wallet it will work. WELL GUESS WHAT? Check below
Offline = Cold << So I decided to try scan my private QR Code from my offline COLD phone Bither, and again it doesn't scan, I can feel a vibration when it detects the QR Code, but it does absolutely nothing, just stays there like it still wants to scan something, the same thing that it does when I try to scan a watch address in the hot wallet..
-------------------------------
I dont get this, does bither only accept special QR codes or something??? I tried to scan the exact same address in Mycelium, within 2 seconds it scans with no problem at all, it also scans Bip38 and many other encryptions. So far I have not scanned a single address in Hot or cold Bither
For now Bither Hot can only scan and monitor the Bither Cold's watch only QR Codes, not the address QR Code or any kind of private key back up QR Code. Bither Hot needs the public key provided to get all the related transactions from bitcoin networks. Only providing the address is not enough and providing the private key is unsafe. So we use our own QR Code content format and only contain the public key in it to communicate between the hot and the cold. Here is the link to our QR Code content format https://github.com/bither/bither-android/wiki/QR-Codes-content-formatAnd we plan to support importing private keys in BIP38 format in the future This is really confusing. I have a cold storage already made , I do not want to use a new one. Are you saying that I HAVE to create a new one and I cannot import a current cold storage? It has Import Private Key inside Cold wallet, When I show the private key QR code UN-Encrypted it does not detect it. I don't get it. If there is a way I can please tell me the steps I need to do ? If there is no way I can import current Cold storage let me know thanks. I have the Public Key- also known as Address I have the Private Key for this Public Address key I have the Bip38 version of the private key. I have ALL relevant information to access this wallet, how can I use Bither in this circumstance without creating a fresh address.

You can import plain text private keys into Bither Cold (same format as bitcoin-qt dump private key command). Bither does not support BIP38 QR Code right now. And we will support it in the future.

Is it possible to add CoinBase as one of the exchanges?
Thanks for your suggestion, we may add Coinbase in future version. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Why not just a settings menu where you can add any exchange using their API. Just input the buy/sell/withdraw/deposit commands for the exchange you want to use. Maybe we will consider your suggestion in the future version of Bither. Thanks a lot ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Hello, I think I can answer myself. When I wanted to incorporate my purse Bither cold paper was not able to read the QR with the private address. It does nothing, only vibrates. I discovered when entering the private address by hand, which is my private address uncompressed Bither is compressed only able to import private keys. My solution was to import paper purse blockchain.info and generate a cool wallet in the smartphone and import the compressed private key and send the funds from blockchain.info: http://offlinebitcoins.com/ IMPORTANT: Make cold backup in case your smartphone wallet breaks or the data is lost. Special thanks to Varmetric. We will support uncompressed private keys (old version) in the future. Also we will support BIP38 ASAP. Thanks ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

If Xapo goes, your BTC goes. Currently, it is better to use Bither or other wallets which support cold storage . ~~MZ~~

You have access to the BTC , because you have the Privat Keys, you need to ask and you get them (Encrypted)

I missed your questions, and really sorry for that. Currently we are still considering how to provide an easier way for normal users to simply use MultiSig and HD wallet. We will think through these, and try to supports MultiSig and HD wallet. But I cannot give you the exact plan now, sorry. Thanks for your advice, Best Regards, Wen Hao Bither Team
