SAFETY AND SECURITY NOTICE
We strongly recommend that you run this open-source program on a computer that is permanently offline.Online computers may be at risk of hacking and/or having malware installed, which may allow others to steal access to the private key information that will be generated and shown by this program.
Anyone who knows your cold storage passphrase and encrypted private key can spend all the cryptocurrency in your cold storage.
This page allows you to verify or decrypt your cold storage.
Verification
This process allows you to check your cold storage’s authenticity by reviewing its public key and the deposit addresses of all its supported currencies. To verify your cold storage, you will need its passphrase and its BIP38 confirmation code, which can be obtained through the Ballet Crypto mobile app.
or
Decryption
This process allows you to reveal your cold storage’s decrypted private key using its passphrase and encrypted private key. Decrypting your cold storage will reveal its public key and the deposit addresses and decrypted private keys of all its supported currencies. Having the decrypted private keys gives you full access to all funds stored on your cold storage.

Step 1 - Enter your cold storage passphrase.

Remove the tamper-evident scratch-off to get the cold storage passphrase.
Switch to standard input box for entering generic BIP38 passphrases.

Step 2 - Enter your cold storage’s BIP38 confirmation code or encrypted private key.

Verify using BIP38 confirmation code.
You can use the Ballet Crypto mobile app to get your cold storage’s BIP38 confirmation code.
