RE: Some advice - A set and forget BTC wallet for my kids

in #bitcoin7 years ago

Hey @rival - I have an advice for you. Before you print paperwalltes, try the "Opendime". Its like a piggy bank only for BTC. I bought one for my brother and put some BTC on it.

You can read about it here in my post: http://steem.link/46c8B

It's really easy to set up and it looks nice. And you've got something in your hand ;)

Thank you.. i Will have a detailed look at it.. did not know About the paper wallet either. Just need an adres were i Can send small amounts of btc in the next years. I put the wallet in a safe with a backup somewhere else. Dont want to touch it for a long time..

You bought Some btc for your brother. He must be happy with it. I hope to reach 1 btc but that would be almost impossible if btc keeps rising.

Btw, here you go: https://bitcoinpaperwallet.com/

Click on generate key, move your mouse, save the pair of Keys (or better: print them)

Make a transaction to the Public key.

For a simple address just search in Google for "bitcoin paper wallet generator" - there you get your private and public key - the public key is the address you send the Bitcoins to. With The private key you can access everything related to your public key and make transactions. Both Keys printed on paper are called Paper Wallet.

Thx for the info.. check it out.. but when fees to move small are expensive i have to see if this works out..
