Renewing warning against storing private keys in Blockchain Wallet. Rob at Gli.ph claims their API generated a new address/private key when I first linked it to Blockchain (with whitelisted IP), but that address (https://blockchain.info/address/1EKqFXn3UmaZaJP5swqCUm3mbpdp63VhwR) never showed up, so I couldn't have deleted it, by accident (an 8 step process) or otherwise. The first time I saw that address was when he PMed it to me after I complained about his 0.001 not being received at any address in my Blockchain Wallet. He swears up and down that it's working correctly, but clearly it isn't, if private keys are ever getting erased without the possibility of user input.

ETA: This was not an isolated incident of non-theft loss for Blockchain Wallet, and we're lucky it was only a $0.25 loss this time. I'm attempting to gather other reports and get other victims to reply here. Any failure is not an option when "magic internet money" (that can never be recovered once private keys are lost) is involved. If I ran Gliph and was made aware of Blockchain's failure even once, I would yank the integration immediately, not defend it, and not by implication fall back on my Terms of Service's Warranty Disclaimer, Limitation of Liability, Indemnification in allowing any more possible failures.

ETA: The 0.001 that was actually received was just forwarded to xkcd https://blockchain.info/tx/2752d70392978a12883c348b3fcf4c8710534e482764b441c284118c044cfc1b

Saying that you don't trust someone because of their behavior is completely valid.

Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

Hey there, As I mentioned in the few hours we've worked together over the past two days trouble shoot this, I'm sorry we weren't able to work this out or trace exactly what happened with the first .001 I sent to you over Gliph.

I understand that not everyone out there has the best experience with Blockchain.info or even Coinbase. We generally recommend people use Coinbase with Gliph at this point. We understand that not everyone feels comfortable with either service's use of private keys and that the way Gliph works with Bitcoin may not suit every Bitcoin user.

I recognize that 2FA is a requirement for some folks, and while we don't support that for sending, we do support that for receipt of Payment in Marketplace on both wallet services. 

I think it is reasonably important to say that I was able to successfully send Bitcoin to your attached blockchain account, and while you offered to return it, I said you were welcome to keep it. Smiley I also want to clarify that we have not had a problem reported similar to this yet, which makes it hard to reproduce.

I am sorry we weren't able to make Gliph Marketplace work for you.

If other folks are considering listing in Gliph Marketplace we'd love to have you give it a shot. It is just two weeks old and we're continuing to improve it over time.
