Bitcoin wallet on a usb

You can get as many wallets as you want for free at:

bitaddress.org

Have you been following these blogs? You should create some sloppy wallets and have your real wallet in a USB drive so you can remove it from your computer and the internet so it can never be hacked. You can also print your wallet code so that it only exists on a piece of paper, but if you lose the paper, you lose whatever is in the wallet, but same thing if you lose the USB drive with the info.

Once you know which wallet you want to use as primary, you can shortcut your wallet address at blockchain so it’s not a random string of numbers and letters but something you design to be easy to remember:

But if you want to cash in your bitcoin for real money, you will need to join an exchange, which will require ID’s, bank information and possibly a credit card for back-up. I recommend Coinbase.com as the easiest exchange to work with and fortunately they keep 99% of all wallet info in cold storage.
