Dear hotwallet users:

I've decided to continue running hotwallet for a little while longer. So I've been spending a couple hours here and there fixing it up and answering user's questions.

Bug Fixes:
 o We have identified and fixed a bug regarding passwords, which bricked some user's accounts. If your account is affected just send us a mail (anonymously if you prefer) and we can fix the problem.

Coming Soon (Hopefully in/before March 2013):
 o Litecoin/Bitcoin exchange
 o Interactive fiction game. I've been thinking about how to bets code something like this for a while. It will be a fun game.
 o Cold storage and/or a 'reserve' system: Manual or automatic offline storage so that if the server gets hacked your coins are safe.
 o Reserve system & insured deposits (even if we get hacked, your deposit is guaranteed by Hotwallet.ca)

As always, there are absolutely no fees for the basic service. Why should there be?

Good luck in 2013.

Hello all loyal hotwallet users!

I've identified and fixed a bug regarding passwords. Accounts which used a password greater than 16 characters, and which were created in 2012 have been locked. If you created an account during that time period with a long password, please e-mail me anonymously with what details you can and I will restore your password manually.

COMING SOON (February & March 2013)
 - Cold storage for a hot wallet: Manual offline storage so that it is impossible to hack your coins. Choose your auth-poison: passwords, yubikeys, or GPG.
 - Reserve system & insured deposits (even if we get hacked, your deposit is guaranteed by Hotwallet.ca)
 - Litecoin/Bitcoin exchange
 - New game: Interactive fiction system. Look for interactive fiction games in February or March 2013!

As always, there are absolutely no fees for the basic service. Why should there be?

Good luck in 2013.

Oops, looks like you forgot to type your response. Your quote appears to be a little out of date as well.

Anyways I just got home and reworded it a little. Thanks for the bump, but did you have a question or something?
