Hi guys what's up, a newbie here.
I have a question in my mind about the paper wallet.
As I could understand, and to make a paper wallet offline, I need to download the html file of the BitAddress page and disconnect or disable any connection that I have in my computer then use a Linux liveCD, then open the html file that will generate private-public keys pair. After that I need transfer bitcoins from my wallet whereever they are to the public addresses on the paper.
Now, this in mind, the keys are generated while the computer is off-line, other person overseas may do the same procedure using the same html. There is no communication between the tasks of us and the addresses that produced on our computers are not introduced to the network neither to anywhere else.
Is there any probability that this html will generate one similar private-public pair for both of us?
How it comes that bitcoins can be transfered from a application wallet on a pc to a public address on the paper. The addresses in the paper are not introduced to the network. Then how can this transaction be verified and confirmed by the distributed network? How can the receiver wallet get its contents?
When I have these kind of questions I know that I am in the right way but at the same time I have this feeling that I missed something.
