What Hacker News says?
An ETH wallet is just a private/publik keypair. You only have to generate a compatible pair [1] and write it in a piece if paper. What makes it "cold" is that you dont place your keys sonwhere online (myetherwallet, exodus,etc) so it cant be hacked. [1] https://www.arthurkoziel.com/generating-ethereum-addresses-i...

HN discussionhttps://www.arthurkoziel.com/running-virt-manager-and-libvir... This guy seems to have a brew package for it. At the bottom he has a warning and a link to another blog post about HVF acceleration (no idea what that is) which seems to work on the command line. I suspect there'd be a way to incorporate that to the xml file in the gui.
