With the rather high fees for transactions now, methods to reduce these are welcome.
As I understand it, SegWit transactions reduce the on-block transaction size, so reduce data, and reduce fees. Maybe by half. I read an article which suggested if everyone moved to SegWit, we wouldn't currently have the transaction backlog and high fees.
There are other (not so pretty) SegWit paper wallet generators out there, so technically it is possible, but this paper wallet generator is one I know and trust.
I give these wallets to friends and I know they will really appreciate me looking after them if I give them SegWit wallets.
Are there any plans on the roadmap to add SegWit functionality to this generator?

Thanks.

Regardless of fees, i'd also really like to be able to print nicely looking segwit paper wallets. Especially for cold/long term storage, using the new standard makes sense in my eyes. Keep up the great work!

+1 . It would be great to see SegWit address generated along side uncompressed and compressed addresses please. Thanks for your great site and repository.

Segwit by default would be nice
