Feature request: Import private keys from paper wallet via qr code #3

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Hello,

It would be amazing (a game changer) if Bitcoin spinner had support for 
multiple private keys. The goal I have in mind that requires multiple key 
support is to import a private key from a paper wallet ala bitaddress.org, 
Casascius coins or other private key formats.

Thanks,

David

Hi David,
The way that BitcoinSpinner was built does not allow it to import arbitrary 
private keys. BitcoinSpinner uses deterministic keys based on a seed, which is 
what you backup/restore. However, currently BS only allows you to manage one 
deterministic private key, and this may change going forward.
