1 00:00:00,730 --> 00:00:06,820 OK so now that we have our wallets software installed which is electronic in this lecture I'm gonna 2 00:00:06,850 --> 00:00:10,540 show you how to create our first wallet. 3 00:00:10,630 --> 00:00:15,640 So I'm here at tails and I'm gonna double click the electronic icon. 4 00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:16,810 As you know we. 5 00:00:16,870 --> 00:00:23,400 We put this in persistent now because this is the first time we run it. 6 00:00:23,510 --> 00:00:30,160 And because we haven't created a wallet as you can see by default it's showing us a wizard to create 7 00:00:30,220 --> 00:00:31,570 a new wallet. 8 00:00:31,570 --> 00:00:36,580 So the first thing you want to do is like the name of the wallet that you want to create. 9 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:42,070 In my case I'm going to call a John wake wallet and I'm going to click on Next. 10 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:48,090 And now it's asking us what type of wallet do we want to create by default. 11 00:00:48,100 --> 00:00:50,040 This is set to a standard wallet. 12 00:00:50,050 --> 00:00:56,560 And this is what we're going to create the wallet with two factor authentication allows you to create 13 00:00:57,100 --> 00:01:02,470 a wallet that uses three keys two of which are stored on this computer. 14 00:01:02,500 --> 00:01:05,670 And the third is stored on a remote device. 15 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:12,880 And in order to log into this wallet and use it you'll need to use a device with Google Authenticator. 16 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:20,860 Now this obviously increases security but it jeopardizes our privacy because as we know Google isn't 17 00:01:20,860 --> 00:01:22,780 great when it comes to privacy. 18 00:01:23,380 --> 00:01:28,840 Therefore this would be a good option if you want to be secure and you don't care about privacy but 19 00:01:28,870 --> 00:01:34,350 if you want to be anonymous then standard wallet is a better option than this. 20 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,500 You can also create a multi signature wallet. 21 00:01:37,540 --> 00:01:44,310 This is basically a wallet that uses two other separate wallets installed on two separate machines. 22 00:01:44,320 --> 00:01:51,640 Again it increases security and because it doesn't require Google Authenticator it won't jeopardize 23 00:01:51,700 --> 00:01:52,810 our privacy. 24 00:01:52,870 --> 00:01:58,630 But like I said in order to do this you will need to set up two machines and use these two machines 25 00:01:58,630 --> 00:02:01,630 to authenticate and use this wallet. 26 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:08,860 The last option will allow us to import Bitcoin addresses or private keys as the option suggests. 27 00:02:08,860 --> 00:02:11,590 So we're keeping this at standard wallet. 28 00:02:11,590 --> 00:02:13,720 We're going to click on Next. 29 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:21,530 Now it's asking us whether we want to create a new seed or a new wallet or restore an existing wallet. 30 00:02:21,610 --> 00:02:26,410 A seed is a string of text that can be used to restore a wallet. 31 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:31,810 So if you already have a wallet on a different computer that you removed or if you already have a wallet 32 00:02:31,810 --> 00:02:36,220 that you want to use on this computer then you would select the second option. 33 00:02:36,220 --> 00:02:37,710 I already have a seat. 34 00:02:37,930 --> 00:02:43,240 If you're creating a new wallet from scratch you're not restoring anything you're going to keep this 35 00:02:43,330 --> 00:02:49,620 at create a new seed and you'll see in the next window we will get a seed which we can use to log into 36 00:02:49,630 --> 00:02:53,880 our wallet or restore it on multiple computers. 37 00:02:53,890 --> 00:03:01,960 You can also use a key or a hardware device to again restore a wallet and use it in this computer. 38 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,180 But like I said we don't have a wallet. 39 00:03:04,180 --> 00:03:05,830 We want to create a new wallet. 40 00:03:05,860 --> 00:03:10,920 So we're keeping this at the first option and we're going to click on Next. 41 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,960 Next is going to ask us about the C type. 42 00:03:14,150 --> 00:03:16,010 We're going to keep this at the SEC. 43 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,530 This is much more secure than the legacy. 44 00:03:18,640 --> 00:03:23,350 But as the note suggests in here this might not work with all Web sites 45 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:31,060 and right here as you can see we have our seed. 46 00:03:31,060 --> 00:03:37,510 So like I said the seed is a string of text that we can use to log in to this wallet. 47 00:03:37,510 --> 00:03:39,420 So this is very dangerous. 48 00:03:39,430 --> 00:03:42,190 You're not supposed to share this with anybody. 49 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:47,140 If anyone sees this text they'll be able to log into your wallet. 50 00:03:47,170 --> 00:03:52,470 So that's why you have all the notes in here telling you never store this electronically. 51 00:03:52,570 --> 00:03:59,320 You should keep it on a piece of paper or try to just memorize it because if anybody sees this string 52 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:06,640 of text they'll be able to log into your wallet and use your money transfer money or receive money now 53 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:13,360 this is very useful for us if we keep it private because we can use this text to log in to our wallet 54 00:04:13,540 --> 00:04:19,330 from different computers or even if we remove tales from here and reinstall it on a completely different 55 00:04:19,390 --> 00:04:20,730 USB stick. 56 00:04:20,740 --> 00:04:25,080 All we have to do is start electron instead of choosing create a new seat. 57 00:04:25,090 --> 00:04:30,220 We're going to say we're going to restore from an existing seat put this text and you'll be good to 58 00:04:30,220 --> 00:04:34,950 go you'll be able to log into your wallet and you won't lose any money. 59 00:04:34,990 --> 00:04:39,310 So right now I'm going to copy this and I'm going to put it in a text editor. 60 00:04:39,310 --> 00:04:44,280 Now I know it's said Don't do this but I'm going to do it anyway for the sake of this video. 61 00:04:45,110 --> 00:04:46,670 And we're going to click on Next. 62 00:04:47,230 --> 00:04:52,870 And in the next window it's literally asking you to paste the seed in here just to make sure that you 63 00:04:52,870 --> 00:04:55,660 actually stored it somewhere and you remember it. 64 00:04:56,620 --> 00:04:57,910 So I'm going to go here. 65 00:04:57,910 --> 00:05:05,990 I'm going to select all copied and pasted here and we're going to click on Next. 66 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:12,360 Now it's going to ask you to choose a password to encrypt your wallet again use a long and strong password 67 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:20,710 and we're going to keep this option checked to encrypt the wallet file that will be stored on this computer. 68 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,920 I'm going to click on next and that's it. 69 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:29,730 Our wallet is set now as you can see here the main thing you want to check is the balance. 70 00:05:29,730 --> 00:05:36,300 As you can see we have zero micro bitcoins because we haven't really transferred anything in here. 71 00:05:36,300 --> 00:05:37,880 This is our balance. 72 00:05:37,890 --> 00:05:41,180 You can also see in here the blue circle. 73 00:05:41,220 --> 00:05:42,930 Now this circle will be red. 74 00:05:42,930 --> 00:05:45,790 If you're not connected it will be green. 75 00:05:45,840 --> 00:05:52,250 If you're connected directly and it'll be blue if you're connected over the Tor network. 76 00:05:52,620 --> 00:05:58,710 So electoral is just software that you can install on any operating system and you can see that if you 77 00:05:58,710 --> 00:06:04,920 install this on any other operating system other than tables and create a new wallet you'll see this 78 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:11,460 circle right here will be green not blue because you'll be connected directly through the clear net 79 00:06:11,810 --> 00:06:18,720 but because this is blue in here we know that we are more anonymous and more private because we're connecting 80 00:06:18,900 --> 00:06:20,000 using Tor. 81 00:06:20,070 --> 00:06:25,950 So we can be rest assured that all the traffic that is sent to us from electrons is going through the 82 00:06:25,950 --> 00:06:29,120 Tor network first. 83 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:34,390 Now you can also see in here we're already by default in the history tab where you can see all your 84 00:06:34,390 --> 00:06:35,300 transactions. 85 00:06:35,350 --> 00:06:38,570 Again I have nothing because I haven't done any transactions. 86 00:06:38,830 --> 00:06:46,240 You can use the receive tab to get your receiving address and you're receiving QR code you can use these 87 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,740 you can share them with anybody that you want to receive money from. 88 00:06:50,740 --> 00:06:57,460 And they will be going to their sent up and they will either use your receive address or use your QR 89 00:06:57,460 --> 00:07:00,110 code to send money to you. 90 00:07:00,430 --> 00:07:01,810 And that's pretty much it. 91 00:07:01,810 --> 00:07:03,790 So now we have our wallet. 92 00:07:03,970 --> 00:07:08,710 And as you can see electron is a very simple program that is easy to use. 93 00:07:08,740 --> 00:07:10,450 Don't worry too much about using it. 94 00:07:10,450 --> 00:07:15,670 We are going to use it more in the next lectures and you'll get very comfortable with it because as 95 00:07:15,670 --> 00:07:17,490 you can see it's simple enough. 96 00:07:17,490 --> 00:07:17,890 Anyway.
