Can anyone verify the above two links (cryptopapers and crytowallets) are safe to use as coin storage? My biggest fear (and no offense to those posters/sites) is that it's just a scam to steal my coins lol. I saw this thread in the newbie forum: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=520767.20 where a post recommends a wallet and people immediately knew that it was a scam. I, on the other hand, would never have known because every suggestion is news to me. So being very new, of course I'm just skittish.

I am just trying to figure out the best way to store bitcoin and a handful of altcoins for the longterm. I am thinking a paper wallet, but am not even sure what that is (is it the same as cold storage?) and am trying to figure out if I need one paper wallet per type of coin, or if there's something that will store all my coins together. Can someone also expand on the comments above regarding a USB stick? You store addresses on there? What do you mean by "addresses"?  Embarrassed Thank you much!!
