Re: PaperBank - Generate Cold Storage *Coin Paper Wallet, Offline, with Rasp PI
I think it's good to have multiple implementations of the same project in different languages, using different libraries and different ways to generate keypairs.
I definitely agree, and I think you have a great attitude about this.
I looked at your code at https://github.com/piperwallet/Piper.git and it's cool, I'm going to try it now!
I found that running the python code on Piper github (I'm no python expert!) I have the current issues/notes to make:
...
So there are a lot of random mods that I've done to Raspbian to get Piper to perform as best as possible. I always figured people would just start from the SD image instead of starting from scratch. I'll try and document the process to get everything running from a fresh raspbian install.
ps I have a RPI model A that is slower but only 25 bucks - also really cheap sd card, but I don't save paper wallet backups there
Did you pick it up recently? I haven't been able to find Model A's for $25 for a few months now, it's been sold out at all the official RPi distributors.
I think they were going to do a new production run of them soon so maybe that happened?I see this as some sort of competition, and in the end, this kind of activity benefits the users and adopters, and bitcoin as a whole (community, coin, protocol, etc.)
I definitely agree with this :-D
