Step 2 - Print paper wallet. Click the Paper Wallet tab and print the page on high quality setting.
Never save the page as a PDF file to print it later since a file is more likely to be hacked than a piece of paper.

Step 3 - Fold paper wallet. Fold your new paper wallet following the lines. __________________________________________
Step 4 - Share your public address. Use your public address to receive money from other crypto-currency users. You can share your public address as much as you want. Do not share your private key.

Step 5 - Keep your private keys secret. The private key is literally the keys to your coins, if someone was to obtain it, they could withdraw the funds currently in the wallet, and any funds that might be deposited in that wallet.
Please test spending a small amount before receiving any large payments. Please keep your private keys secret.
