Walkthrough of Creating a Paper Wallet
How Do I Create a Paper Wallet?
The best practices for creating a paper wallet are as follows:
1) Use a dedicated computer that never connects to the internet.
We want to be sure our wallet generating software is free of spyware, that may capture our Private Key information and transmit it over the internet.
As this may not be a viable option for most people, scan your computer for viruses and spyware and make sure that your computer is disconnected from the internet while creating the paper wallet.
2) Use a wired connection to the printer. Do not use a WiFi connection! This will prevent any wireless attacks from occurring.
3) Only use wallet generating software that has been recommended by the coin's official website.
4) After printing the paper wallet, test the QR codes for the Public and Private keys, to make sure that they scan correctly.
5) Shred any extra copies of the paper wallet, to prevent unauthorized access to the wallet.
6) Clear the buffer of the printer, if it has a re-print capability. This will prevent extra copies being printed after the wallet has been created.
After generating the paper wallet and before depositing any coins to the wallet, check the Public wallet address on a blockchain explorer and confirm that it works, and that it currently has a zero balance.
