Write down bitcoins on a piece of paper I am a newbie when it comes to bitcoin. I am using the default bitcoint client and I have some bitcoins in my wallet. How can i write them down and give it to some one and then the person how can they use them

Is this possible ?
Here's a simple way to do it:


On bitaddress.org, use the "Paper Wallet" tab and create 1 address
Using your Bitcoin client, send an amount of bitcoins to the Bitcoin Address on the paper wallet
Print the paper wallet and give it to your friend
Tell your friend to create a wallet at My Wallet. He can then use the "import from paper wallet" feature and simply scan the QR code to import the bitcoins.


Please note that when handing over a private key "offline" like this both you and the receiver will have access to the funds if you keep a copy of the private key. The receiver has to trust you to not take advantage of that before he has had the chance to move the funds.

bitaddress.org by the way is a client side tool so you are not trusting them with your money, though you might want to read this: Should I trust bitaddress.org?
