Important Notes
---------------
* The private keys (xpriv) should never be moved outside of `offline-bitcoin`.
* For copying out the public keys (xpub), Qubes provides two secure, convenient
methods: the [inter-VM clipboard] and [inter-VM file copy] tools. Compared to
traditional physically air-gapped machines, these tools makes it very easy to
copy out public keys.
