DEEPONION: How to create a paperwallet with QT wallet : Everything offline TUTORIAL

in #bitcoin7 years ago

So here we go,

As I said earlier, I never trust any online source with my private keys and neither should anyone who deals crypto. So I came up with probably the safest method to secure your wallet by creating your own paper wallet, all offline

  1. For this tutorial, you will need 2 Softwares
    Go to following links and download and install (if installation is needed) both Softwares

Something to encrypt your text in the private key
link to encryption freeware
Something to convert your private and public key into a barcode so that copying becomes easier
link to barcode maker

  1. Now, go to your DeepOnion wallet.

Click on the receive tab. Right click on the address that you want to convert into your own paper wallet. and Copy it
Copy wallet address

  1. Now click on the help menu > Debug window
    click on the menu shown in red
    debug menu

A new window will open

  1. Click on the "Console" tab
    and then in the bar below you can type your commands
    Check available commands by typing "help"
    help

Now enter command

  1. dumpprivkey your DeepOnion address that you copied in first step
    It will show you the private key corresponding to your DeepOnion Address
    Copy this key and paste it in a text file with your DeepOnion address (DeepOnion address is not necessary). To recover your wallet using private key, all you need is the private key
    Dump Private key

Now lets go back to the softwares that you downloaded in the beginning

  1. Go to CTI text encryption 6.0.1
    enter your private key that you copied before and paste it in the main window
    You can add up to 4 different passwords simultaneously to super protect your private key and click on encrypt. I use generally only 2 but its up to you. DONT FORGET THE PASSWORD
    Encrypt private key

Copy the encrypted key and email it to yourself for safety. Its protected by passwords so you can save it whichever way you want.

  1. Now lets create the barcode for your public address. (I recommend not to create a barcode using your private key). Anyone who has any app that can read barcode will be able to use your private key immediately. So DONT. Copy your public key
    Open Zint Barcode Studio
    Select Aztec code as shown below
    Create barcode

Paste your public key here
paste public key

Now go to the Aztec Code tab
And refine your barcode
I like to use compact design but feel free to use anything that you want
Modify barcode

Now time to try it out before saving everything.
Make sure that you can decrypt your private key using your saved encrypted private key and your passwords

To decrypt.
click on Erase All option
Paste the key into the encrypted key window (bottom part)
enter the passwords that you used in their respective places (I dont know if order is necessary but there are password 1 ,2,3,4 fileds, so just use the ones that you used before)
Then click on decrypt
You should see your key in the Normal Text window (Big white window above)

Make sure using your cellphone and a barcode reader application (Any barcode reader will work) you can point it at the screen and see the DeepOnion address on your cellphone.

If everything looks ok, then save the barcode and the encrypted private key on a paper, create a PDF out of it or save it whichever way, this is the safest way to create your own public key barcode nad encrypted private key combo that you can save forever.

This technique works on every single crypto wallet.

STOP USING ONLINE SOURCES TO GET YOUR PRIVATE KEY.
USE LOCAL RESOURCES, AIR GAPPED COMPUTER TO SAVE YOUR PRIVATE KEYS!!

In next 3 years when you are a millionaire, thank me :))
