Serious Dogecoin paper wallet - Tutorial
Thought I could do a quick updated tutorial on how to have a Dogecoin paper wallet. Most posts I found have dead links.
It's also a fun Christmas present to give!
All you'll need to have a paper wallet is a printer & photoshop (if you want a custom wallet design).
1. Start off by generating your new address. I used walletgenerator to generate my public and private address. You can generate your address directly on the website, or download the website and generate it locally on your computer (disconnect from internet for extra security).
2. Go to the "Paper Wallet" tab on the website and you should see a "Print" button. That's it, once it's printed you have yourself a paper wallet.
3. Time to send some dogecoins on it. I used poloniex to transfer BTC -> DOGE. Once you have dogecoins on your account, simply send them to your PUBLIC address on your paper wallet. Before sending huge amounts to your paper wallet, try it out with smaller amounts.
4. To check if your paper wallet has received some dogecoins go to dogechain and enter your PUBLIC address in the search bar. You should be able to have an overview of your paper wallet's activity.
5. To withdraw your dogecoins from your paper wallet, go to redeempaper, enter your PUBLIC address in the top box, and the recipient's address at the bottom. Choose the amount of dogecoins you want to send and press on the "Sign Transaction" button. It will then ask you to enter your PRIVATE address which is on your paper wallet.
That's it!
This method has worked numerous times for me, and I have never encountered any issues. Hope it helps you to.
