Lucky that I don't use this online wallet. This is not an online wallet, it is just a brain wallet generator and you can spend the brain wallet on that site (while traditional brain wallets is generated on like bitaddress.org, which works like a paper wallet and you need to sweep it or import it elsewhere). Also it is a signature verifier online, as far as I know no other place is offering this service. |

I remember hearing a speech by the Winklevoss and one of the brothers sort of said he used a brainwallet. I hope he didn't loss anything, these guys sure must have tons of BTC everywhere they create a wallet at.

I think this is the reason. Victim probably blaimed brainwallet site and owners didn't want to risk lawsuit. |

I don't think you can use a blank password by accident. |

I don't understand why would people use online wallets at all while so many other alternatives, local and hardware wallets exist? I mean why would you trust some entity to take care of your money again in your life when finally with Bitcoin you can be your own bank. I always looked at online wallets as some kind of online banks anyways.

People have said that brainwallets aren't save, for as long as I have been on bitcointalk. Users think that their keys are save because their phase is long and unpreditable. I think most phases that people uses aren't. I feel sorry for those lost coins, expensive lesson.  |

This shows you how fast the actual bitcoin / crypto-currency world is at finding issues and writing code - its very fast moving.

Hi, Do they still serve the source code of it on github?
We may need it, it was a great service.

Nope, the code on github was removed as well. So if you didn't have it saved it's gone. This is the only thing left of the github code <!DOCTYPE html>

<title>Closed Permanently</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Closed Permanently</h1>
</body></html> EDIT: Actually you can get the source code from a previous commit here: https://github.com/brainwallet/brainwallet.github.io/commit/fa462be9af74da30ae7e78203c11b94a0f887539 |
