What is a good way to create a personal bitcoin wallet?
p.s. I studied computer science, am reasonably fluent in computer security, but not a crypto or bitcoin expert.
- narak 9y agohttps://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet Some self-education links at the bottom as well.
- Keeeeeeeks 9y agoBlockchain.info, but not sure how they intend to handle the fork. May be best to set up a personal wallet using the mentioned link
- Grangar 9y agoBlockchain.info doesn't give you control over your own keys IIRC. Use an actual client, not a website.
- quickthrower 9y agoDepends on your level of paranoia. I use an encrypted file on disk to store a client and keys. I back this up offsite incase I get ransomwared. That's good enough for me. The super paranoid roll dice to generate the private key, use a totally offline computer to convert those dice rolls into an address.
