+# Paper Wallet
+
+This document describes how to create and use a paper wallet with the Solana CLI
+tools.
+
+{% hint style="info" %}
+We do not intend to advise on how to *securely* create or manage paper wallets.
+Please research the security concerns carefully.
+{% endhint %}
+
+## Overview
+
+Solana provides a key generation tool to derive keys from BIP39 compliant seed
+phrases. Solana CLI commands for running a validator and staking tokens all
+support keypair input via seed phrases.
+
+To learn more about the BIP39 standard, visit the Bitcoin BIPs Github repository
+[here](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0039.mediawiki).
+
+## Installation
+
+The tools used in this guide can all be installed by following the
+[Installing the Validator Software](running-validator/validator-software.md)
+guide. After installation, you will have access to the `solana`,
+`solana-keygen`, and `solana-validator` tools.

+# Creating a Paper Wallet
+
+Using the `solana-keygen` tool, it is possible to generate new seed phrases as
+well as derive a keypair from an existing seed phrase and (optional) passphrase.
+The seed phrase and passphrase can be used together as a paper wallet. As long
+as you keep your seed phrase and passphrase stored safely, you can use them to
+access your account.
+
+{% hint style="info" %}
+For more information about how seed phrases work, review this
+[Bitcoin Wiki page](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Seed_phrase).
+{% endhint %}
+
+## Seed Phrase Generation
+
+Generating a new keypair can be done using the `solana-keygen new` command. The
+command will generate a random seed phrase, ask you to enter an optional
+passphrase, and then will display the derived public key and the generated seed
+phrase for your paper wallet.
+
+```bash
+solana-keygen new --no-outfile
+```
+
+{% hint style="warning" %}
+If `--no-outfile` is **not** specified, the default behavior is to write the
+keypair to `~/.config/solana/id.json`
+{% endhint %}
+
+For full usage details run:
+
+```bash
+solana-keygen new --help
+```
+
+## Public Key Derivation
+
+Public keys can be derived from a seed phrase and a passphrase if you choose to
+use one. This is useful for using using an offline-generated seed phrase to
+derive a valid public key. The `solana-keygen pubkey` command will walk you
+through entering your seed phrase and a passphrase if you chose to use one.
+
+```bash
+solana-keygen pubkey ASK
+```
+
+{% hint style="info" %}
+Note that you could potentially use different passphrases for the same seed
+phrase. Each unique passphrase will yield a different keypair.
+{% endhint %}
+
+The `solana-keygen` tool assumes the use of the BIP39 standard English word
+list. If you chose to deviate from the word list or used a different language
+for your seed phrase, you can still derive a valid public key but will need to
+explicitly skip seed phrase validation.
+
+```bash
+solana-keygen pubkey ASK --skip-seed-phrase-validation
+```
+
+For full usage details run:
+
+```bash
+solana-keygen pubkey --help
+```

+# Paper Wallet Usage
+
+Solana commands can be run without ever saving a keypair to disk on a machine. If avoiding writing a private key to disk is a security concern of yours, you've come to the right place.
+
+{% hint style="warning" %}
+Even using this secure input method, it's still possible that a private key gets written to disk by unencrypted memory swaps. It is the user's responsibility to protect against this scenario.
