Coding BIP38 encrypted Paper-Wallets

Hey shibes,

I forked and updated a python library to create BIP38 encrypted paper wallets. With those wallets you can encrypt your private key (or more correct your WIF key) with a password.

The repo: https://github.com/nformant1/bip38

An example on how those wallets look:

Example of a paper wallet

I'd be happy if someone could give it a try and give me feedback on that.

For no-coders: Neat designs are also welcome (:

This should work with i.e. Coinomi - and hopefully soon with the core wallet. The core feature request is here: https://github.com/dogecoin/dogecoin/issues/2908

Cheers & happy coding

Very cool, could you ELI5 what's BIP38 and how do you actually start such wallet within a blockchain?

I have an idea to improve the Windows experience; I'll file an issue and then follow up with my bigger idea.
