You could generate a private key and public address on bitaddress.org. After doing that save them on notepad or some other thing and move the file to your USB drive. Then take it out of your computer.

A lot of people will say that is poor security and well, I guess they are right if your computer gets compromised. If you are one of the paranoid folk you can hash the private key and public address using your own seed. Chances are, if you don't know how to do that you are better off sticking with the first option or doing what I do which is use paper wallets.

Hi everyone, I'm new here but not to the bitcoin world.
Was wondering if anyone here knows how to transform a normal flash drive to an offline BTC wallet?
This will be veryyyy helpful if available.
Thank you
