I see. The paper wallet serves as a way you keep your information away from your PC. However, as soon as you generate your address that is on the paper wallet, it is registered on the blockchain . When you are ready to send bitcoins for any reason, you will have to go online. Those who use hardware wallets like Trezor must also go online to be able to send bitcoins. The paper wallet is not a one time use. You can use it forever. The challenge there is that anyone can monitor your public key, if you keep using the same public key. To prevent that you may decide to use https://blockchain.info/wallet/#/login . On blockchain.info, you can generate a new public key for every new transaction. In addition to exodus wallet, I also use blockchain.info . Personally, I've not had any reason to use paper wallets. I only know they exist and have a good idea on how to use them. I could do a video for you and other interested newbies on how to use blockchain.info . How about that?
thank you. i need to wrap my head around this.
It's my pleasure. Never mind, very soon you'll be able to. Cheers.
