  Another potential vulnerability of paper wallets is the risk of theft. If someone gains access to the paper wallet, they can easily steal the cryptocurrencies stored on it. Therefore, it is crucial to keep the paper wallet in a secure location and avoid sharing the private key or QR code with anyone.
