Tutorial: How To Import And Spend Bitcoin Paper Wallets

[nvK]

Coinkite makes importing paper wallets and private keys incredibly easy.

Just follow this steps:

• Go to Receive Tab > Private Key
• Paste Private Key
• Press “Save”

Done! Now your balance is spendable on Send Tab > Bitcoin

Now you can keep it in Coinkite, send to P2SH, consolidate with a different paper wallet, etc…



Coinkite supports many types of private keys formats:

• WIF format (Wallet Import Format) — recommended.
• Hexadecimal, Base64 or Base6 (dice rolls)  of the secret exponent.
• BIP38 Encrypted private keys. You’ll need to know the passphrase of course.

Join the most powerful bitcoin platform!

No offense but I think bc.i wallet is way better than your service for 2 major reasons.
1. Your service works like exchanges, which your users don't have access to the private keys.
2. With the free starter plan, your users can only get 2 receiving addresses.

Just my humble opinions.

1. Not like an exchange, we are BIP32 HD, meaning each user has a private key assign to them. Funds are never mixed and can be audited by the user at any time. There is a big feature you will like coming soon, stay tuned.
2. We offer a many more features (Onion, Funds forwarding, BIP32 HD, etc...) and quality support. We you are not selling customer's information to advertisers the natural source of revenue is monthly fees.
