I dont understand the desire to tie brand new ideas to old annoying terrible things like a paper printer. The whole idea is ruined by the slightest amount of time or moisture.

My understanding is the paper used keeps the image about 7 years. Also you can plug in a USB stick (or several) to keep backups of the keys.

I think Piper is a big step forward for storing bitcoins safely and easily. See this thread for an idea of the problem:

Do I really need a Bitcoin wallet?

I think there isn't more enthusiasm because it's not a full solution. It doesn't address the coin spending side too.

There is no reason to bash it because it seems to do what it claims very well with no security holes. This means nobody comments much positively or negatively. I'm glad the project exists, though.

Well you asked: because its a shitty idea.

Hi everyone,

today i learned (outside the forum) that a project is almost fully developed which is called Piper Paper Wallet.

Researching it within the forum I could only find posts from the developer updating the project on several occasions
with no replies/comments whatsoever.

That is a pretty rare thing on this forum and with a project potentially as huge as this I don't get it.

(I was hoping to find someone asking about security features, being psyched about it or at least bashing it down in the usual manner).

Why has no one taken any interest in it?

Project page: http://www.piperwallet.com/

Kickstarter page: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/299052466/piper-a-hardware-based-paper-wallet-printer-and-mo

Last Thread I could find with replies/comments: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=210701.20

Project Update: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2751595

PS: BTW I am not a paid shill or anything. I am just looking to finally find an easy way to have a really secure wallet (after almost 3 years!!!).
