Personally, I take the time to run a verified copy in an offline Tails session. If youвЂ™re certain that your system is secure (without malware or keyloggers etc), you could skip the previous steps and just disconnect from the internet.

Store the .X-SHA256-XXX.html file in ~/Persistent/Tor Browser/ (Note that Tor restricts local file directories - location matters).

Add encrypted persistent storage the the Tails USB drive.

Copy .X-SHA256-XXX.html to a newly-formatted USB key.

You could use Tails along with a persistent encrypted data partition on a USB drive with any offline computer to generate/decrypt Bitcoin private keys. For extra security (or added paranoia, depending on your viewpoint), run a verified copy of in an offline Tails session.

Decrypting the Private KeyДЄccess to the private key equates to full control of the funds attached to the Bitcoin address. Other wallets, such as the Electrum desktop client, Mycelium mobile wallet do have this function. The Bitcoin Core client does not have a built in function for вЂsweepingвЂ™ funds. In contrast sweeping the private key involves making a transaction whereby all Bitcoins held on the wallet are sent to a new address managed by the receiving client - leaving the original (paper) wallet empty, and the funds in the full and exclusive control of the Bitcoin client. As such, if others have access to the paper wallet private key, they would also be able to gain access to the funds. Importing a private key hands control of the Bitcoins linked to the paper wallet to the Bitcoin Core client - the funds remain attached to the original Bitcoin address, as the private key is only imported. Note: this article describes importing rather than sweeping the paper wallet. The process is quite involved - and much of the online documentation is either incomplete or outdated. This process allows the Bitcoin Core client to access and control the funds associated with the paper wallet Bitcoin address.

This article outlines how to import a BIP38 encrypted private key (for example, a Bitcoin paper wallet) to a Bitcoin Core wallet. This will prevent one client's binary from overwriting the other's due to both being named bitcoind.Import a private key from a BIP38 encrypted Bitcoin paper wallet to a Bitcoin Core (Bitcoin-QT) client wallet. You will also need to download and run Bitcoin Core from its own directory rather than installing it to your system. Note: This method requires more resources on a single device since you're doubling the storage space, CPU, and RAM requirements.

Second, by running both Bitcoin Satellite and Bitcoin Core on the same device. You simply add the Bitcoin Satellite client as a peer for the Bitcoin Core client and it will begin relaying data to the Core client. This can be set up in multiple ways.ДЇirst, by allowing the Bitcoin Satellite node to accept incoming connections via a local area network or external network. The Bitcoin Satellite client will relay data received from Blockstream Satellite to any Bitcoin Core nodes connected to it. Yes! This can be done by connecting a Bitcoin Core client to a running Bitcoin Satellite node receiving data from Blockstream Satellite.
