Bitaddress.org now also supports base6 dice-generated private keys:

This is nice. The hex format can be confirmed with this I think -

echo 'obase=16; ibase=6; 0123450123450123450123450123450123450123450123450123450123450123450123450123450 12345012345012345012' | bc

A nice way to input dice throws directly into bitaddress and not have to rely on computer rng.


Separate question - can bitcoin-qt import base16 directly?
