Never talk in absolutes.
Should someone who does not know the risks of paper wallets use them? Probably not.
Should someone who knows how to make them secure, understands the risks & vulnerabilities and such use them if they want to? 100% yes.
I agree. However, which group do you think is bigger? Those who know how to go about using paper wallets or those who could mess it up somehow? You might not even belong to either of those groups, but you just don't want to commit to the task of creating such solutions.
As Andreas says at 0:43, in this video he is talking about a single key paper wallet, which is essentially a piece of paper containing a single private key and single address. I tend to agree with him here; such wallets are outdated...
Exactly! I have to quote myself here:
He is saying that it is not needed to keep track of individual private keys (on paper, steel or otherwise) and their addresses in today's age of recovery phrases. When Bitcoin was still in its beginning, it didn't have 12/24 word recovery phrases. Now it does and we use HD wallets. Why make backups of a single private key when you can take note of the recovery phrase and back up every private key that can be derived from it.
