Title: BTS / BitUSD / BitGOLD paper wallet designs?
Post by: matt608 on December 07, 2014, 07:04:55 pm

Do we have any designs for paper wallets and is there a suggested method to create paper wallets?

I once created a btc paperwallet tool for btc

However it uses LaTeX and might not fit everyones needs .. i'd love to have more time to figure oit howto do it in python

But... I think thos would be an excellent opoerunity for a "plugin" to the bts client ..

There is a linux command line tool in "programs/utils" (linux, compile-your-self) .. that is called bts_create_key

that gives you the private key and a "native" BTS address ..
enough to put it into a paper wallet tool of you choice .. privkeys have the same format as in btc .. just the pubkeys and addresses look different

I would like to see a design for BitGOLD with the old Federal Reserve Notes when the USD was Gold backed.

 +5%  Can anyone do this?  They will be put to good use straight away in a giveaway at a Bitshares meetup in Argentina.

Cass, could you add some priority to this?

We would like to have a simple paper wallet to do the giveaways in Argentina.
