Frequently Asked Questions
What is a paper wallet?
A paper wallet is a physical document containing your cryptocurrency private key and public address. It is a form of cold storage that keeps your keys completely offline.
Why should I NOT use this tool for real crypto?
Browser-based key generation is not secure. Malware, browser extensions, or compromised random number generators could expose your private keys. Always use dedicated hardware or air-gapped computers.
What is cold storage?
Cold storage refers to keeping cryptocurrency private keys completely offline, disconnected from the internet. This protects against hacking and online theft.
How should real paper wallets be created?
Use an air-gapped computer (never connected to internet), boot from a clean OS, use verified open-source software, and print on a non-networked printer.
What are better alternatives to paper wallets?
Hardware wallets (Ledger, Trezor) provide better security with easier usability. They keep private keys in secure hardware and never expose them to your computer.
