Wallet
A Haven account, or wallet, stores the information necessary to send and receive Haven. In addition to sending and receiving, the Haven Wallet software keeps a private history of your transactions and allows you to cryptographically sign messages. It also includes Haven mining software and an address book.
The term "hot wallet" describes a Haven account which is connected to the Internet. You can send funds easily but security is much lower than a cold wallet. Never store large amounts of cryptocurrency in a hot wallet!
A cold wallet is generated on a trusted device or computer via an airgap. If the device is to be reused, the data storage should be securely overwritten. As soon as a cold wallet is connected to the Internet or its mnemonic phrase or spend-key is entered on an Internet-connected device, it's no longer "cold" and should be considered "hot".
A Haven paper-wallet can be generated by downloading the source code of https://havenaddress.org/. Verify the signature of the code on a trusted airgapped device. Create the wallet and print or store it on the media of your choice.
Haven accounts and paper-wallets can be stored on any media - paper, USB drive, CD/DVD, or a hardware wallet device (Ledger available soon).
