Don't encrypt it unless you don't have a safe place to put it and you promise to remember your password forever.

Are there any downsides to using a paper wallet to withdraw coins from pools?

Is the relative safety of a paper wallet comprimised?

Keep it safe and secured - and there isnt.  I think its the fact that its a physical item.  If you can encrypt the wallet beforehand that's also a plus!  Use something like armory for that purpose - I dont exactly know how to encrypt a vanity wallet - or if that is even possible.

There's no need to use your address in a wallet -- it'll always be in the blockchain whether you ever use it or not.

The only downside is it's more difficult to spend from a paper wallet than from a wallet like bitcoin-qt

Hi i have a question about paper wallets. If i mine from p2pool and input a paper wallet address as my username, will i be able to see the mined coins on the address using blockchain.info? the address has never been used on a wallet, just generated from vanitygen.
