Does anyone else use paper wallets much? I don't really trust/can be bothered with things like trezors etc. So I like to make actual certificates like old style stock certificates and keep them in my safe. Pic related is the style I like to use. It's quite simple but gets the job done.

I have some for long term holding purposes.

I keep them in a "fire proof" safe but I want to get the private keys etched into metal instead for increased fireproofing.

>> No.13262597

you can get fireproofed safes but you could also try etchging the pattern on circuit boards they are fiberglass composite and copper and can be pri ted at home you need some sulphuric acid and an uv lamp if remember correctly and some special film material for keeping the acid away in the pattern you printed with your household printer on a piece of seethrough paper.

but this is not the way to go after all.
simplest solution is to make encrypted paper wallets mutliple copies at different locations. your own trezor and maybe your lawyer or a trezor service or at yout bank maybe you can get a box.

if metal melts in a safebox you got some funny shit going on but you could always use stone or clay. hobby clay easier to work at home also and can whitstand some temperature all you have to do is paint the surface and reveal the qr code

I keep most of my cold storage on a bunch of different flash drives. The addresses themselves are encrypted with pgp. So even if someone were to get a hold of my wallets they'd never be able to get any money off of them unless they could break the encryption. I also have the key and the message printed off and laminated if for some reason my drives were to fail. I hope it never happens because it would be a fucking nightmare to type all of that in.

Op here, on my phone so id might change. I have an old bank safe I picked up at an auction. Single door, about 6 foot tall, two combination locks. It claims to be be "explosion proof" as well as fireproof. Dates from the 40s I would say. I also use it for storing my guns.

this is pretty stupid anyone finds it can take your btc. whereas >>13262648 will keep your btc from being destroyed and also secured by knowledge only you posses you would even upload an encrypted private key to a cloud service...

>> No.13263031

>>13263015
altho i'm not sure bip38 is in itself a suitable solution because the password needs to be strong but nobody can remember strong passwords. so i would use a password safe that runs a few ten million rounds of aes on your mnemonic password and have it secured in cloud storage on your phone and a few other places. this way someone has to physically access your private keys to scan them, find your password safe file crack it or brute force the encryption on the paper wallet. which gonna take a few million years any way he sets at it.
