Hi everyone,
 
I get how to create paper wallets to avoid keeping funds on my computer for security. I also get how to access the funds by logging onto blockchain.com and using their ewallets to pay bitcoins into temporarily but what if that website vanishes. Where do I go to. Can I use the bitcoin wallet software somehow to use the keys on the paper wallet to access the funds.
 
Many thanks for your help.
