Vanilla Wallet

Vanilla Wallet is a cold storage wallet generator for multiple crypto currencies written in python. It generates a private key and then derives all the addresses for all coins from that same private key. The private key is then converted to BIP39 recovery word list (not compatible with other wallets as of today) It can output the result in text (default), json and pdf (paper wallets)

Supported coin families

• Bitcoin (legacy, segwith, bech32)
• Dash
• Litecoin
• Ethereum based (Ethereum, EthereumClassic, Quadrans...)
• (More to come, requests an contribuitons welcome)

Key Geneation

Vanilla can generate the private key from a string supplied by the user or from noise capured from the microphone/audio device. Those are used as inital entropy, then are hashed multiple times with an optional salt

Paper Wallets & Templates

In order to create paper wallets just use the -o pdf flag on the command line. The paper wallet is provided in PDF format for your convenience. It is generated starting from a SVG template where graphic elements (coin logo and qrcodes) are set with a simple 'find&replace' approach. You can design your template and use it instead of the default provided one. In order to get the PDF, the conversion from SVG to PDF is done using Google Chrome or Chromium or Brave browser since this is providing better results at the time for colors and transparency.

How to use it

The sujested procedure is:

• download a linux distro and make a live USB key
• boot your PC from the live USB key
• download the source code via git or zip
• run the install.sh to install the dependecies via apt-get and pip3

$ bash install-sh

• DISCONNECT THE PC FROM INTERNET, turn off wifi etc
• generate the wallets (see examples below)
• save the generated wallets in a secure way
• do not print the PDF wallets on a printer (might save copies on a local HD)

Installation

For Debian, Ubuntu, Mint and similar just run

$ bash install

Otherwise issue the following commands or equivalent, depending on your distro. Ensure you have python3 and other installed

sudo apt-get udate
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install git
sudo apt-get install python3-pyaudio
sudo apt-get install python3-pyaudio
sudo apt-get install chromium-browser
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Options

Using the command line options below you can choose to:

• to provide a string for entropy or
• to use the microphone/sound card to gather noise
• to restore a previously generate vanilla address
• to have the output human-readable form and/or json and/or pdf paper wallet
• the language used for BIP39 (check you have the right locales installed)
• have the results for one specific blockchain or all those supported

Usage

Here a list of the options you can use:

• -h --help : get the help/usage mesage
• -t --testnet : make a testnet wallet
• -bc <coin> --blockchain <coin> : specify one or more coins, makes a wallet for each. Possible values are:
  • all (default)
  • Bitcoin/btc/xbt
  • Litecoin/ltc
  • Ethereum/eth
  • EthereumClassic/etc
  • Quadrans/qdc
  • Dash/dash
• -e <ENTROPY> --entropy <ENTROPY> : A random string in case you prefer providing your own entropy
• -l --language : Optional, the language for the mnemonic words list (not BIP39).
  • english (default)
  • chinese_simplified
  • chinese_traditional
  • french
  • italian
  • japanese
  • korean
  • spanish
• -r <WORDLIST>, --restore <WORDLIST> : Restore a wallet from word list (not BIP39)
• -p <PASSWORD>, --password <PASSWORD> : Password for wallet encryption
• -n, --number : Optional, print word list in numbered table in text mode output
• -o <FORMAT> --output <FORMAT> : Type of desired output format, can be specify more than one
  • text/txt/t (default)
  • json/j
  • pdf/p
  • qrcode/qr/q
• -d <OUTDIR> --directory <OUTDIR> : An optional where to save produced files
• -T <TEMPLATE>, --template <TEMPLATE> : optional personalized svg template
• -f <PAPERFORMAT> --format <PAPERFORMAT>: output paper sheet format
  • a4 (default)
  • letter

$ ./vanilla.py [-h] 
$ ./vanilla.py [options [options]]

Examples

Create a testnet address for bitcoin using supplied entropy and get plain text output

python3 vanillay.py -e 3nTroPy -t -n -bc btc 

Create a real bitcoin paper wallet in letter format using noise generated entropy and spanish recovery words

python3 vanillay.py -l spanish -bc btc -o pdf -f letter

Create a Dash wallet in json format

python3 vanillay.py -bc dash -o json
