The private keys are generated completely randomly, and under strict security measures in a highly secured location. The bill is made of high-density polyethylene fibers and is a very durable paper: tear-resistant and water-resistant.

Some use cases for Icynote :

• Make quick and easy transactions – similar to cash
• Make a gift
• Uncomplicated storage of smaller amounts

Note from Copiaro: When using such a product, a certain trust in the manufacturer is necessary, you must be aware of this. Icynote is wonderful as a gift or for transactions with smaller amounts. We had the procedure for generating the private keys explained to us and found it to be sufficiently secure for this purpose. However, for the safe storage of larger sums, we still recommend a hardware wallet.
