A tool to help you design and export 3D-printable bitcoin/cryptocurrency wallets

Project description

This project helps you design and export 3D-printable wallets, similar to paper wallets (but they won’t die in a flood)

Everyone who’s seriously serious about bitcoin has tried paper wallet generators. While the idea is great, paper isn’t a great medium out of which to make something that stores significant value. This this in mind, we set out to make a simple, easy-to-use software that can design and export 3D-printable wallets, with a variety of configuration options.

Dependencies

  • Python3: this project is designed for Python3, not Python2

  • PyBitcoin, sudo pip3 install bitcoin (no manual installation required)

  • PyQRCode, sudo pip3 install pyqrcode (no manual installation required)

  • OpenSCAD 2015 (or higher), just install from their website, and the program should find it automatically (submit an issue if it doesn’t) - (manual installation required)

Features

  • Supports a variety of configuration and size options

  • Exports wallets as STL

  • Export keys as CSV-file for import into other software (for big batches)

  • Set the configuration and let it generate millions of random wallets for you

  • Support for other cryptocurrencies, including:
    • Bitcoin

    • Litecoin

    • Dogecoin

    • Any other currency (as long as you know the version bit for address generation)

Instructions

  1. Install pip
    • Windows: download from their website

    • Mac: install from MacPorts or Brew

    • Linux: sudo apt-get install python3-pip

  2. Install OpenSCAD
    • Download from their website

    • Make sure you are running their newest version (or at least OpenSCAD 2015)

    • Contact us if you need help.

  3. Install our package
    • Try: pip install 3d-wallet-generator

    • If it failes, try: pip install 3d-wallet-generator

    • If it continues to fail, shoot us an email and we’ll try to help.

  4. Use our package
    • Run 3dwallet -h to see your options

    • Try the default settings by running 3dwallet - it will output five wallets, with the default settings, into a folder in your current directory.

    • Play with the other settings and decide how your printer, CNC, etc. likes the different styles.

    • Film it or take a picture, and give it to us! We’ll add it to our collection!

We recommend you run the Linux version off of a LiveUSB for maximum security (just as you would with a normal paper wallet).

Miscellaneous

  • If you have any comments, questions, or feature requests, either submit an issue or contact us at btcspry@bitforwarder.com

  • We always accept donations at 1MF7hKShzq2iSV9ZZ9hEx6ATnHQpFtM7cF!! Please donate, this project took a bunch of effort and we want to make sure it was worth it.

To Do / Features Coming Soon

  • Add pictures

  • Add option to import your own addresses/private keys

  • Offset the white in the QR code (instead of just offsetting the black)

  • If you want any of these developed faster, send us a gift to our donation address above.
