Apologies for starting a new topic, but I'd appreciate your thoughts/advice on the best and safest way to withdraw from paper wallet. Is Electrum wallet the way to go?
Electrum is decent choice and it's been around for more than a decade. If you use the desktop version, you may need to enter the private key using keyboard unless your device also have camera/webcam to scan the QR code on the paper wallet. And aside from what other member said, make sure the device you use to install Electrum is clean (not hacked/infected with malware).
Even though many consider the paper wallet as one of the most secured way of storing bitcoins, there are quite lots of precautionary measures to be taken to secure our bitcoins in paper wallets. I don't think this paper wallet is ideal for frequent transactions.
