https://Vibanko.com - FREE New Wallet Service by Bitcoin Consultancy The Bitcoin Consultancy is proud to present a new wallet service called Vibanko.com We know that the bitcoin market is lacking real developers and that even the biggest merchant sites often offer very poor service and security. Britcoin.co.uk has been in operation since March and has never been hacked or suffered any major error. We had a couple of problems due to human error, but nothing that was not fixable. Slapping on a McAfee logo and two factor authentication can be akin to putting more locks on the doors when the walls are paper thin. Our new wallet service has been built and is being operated by us. We have been running as long as britcoin.co.uk and our security and service have been unmatched. The wallet service is also for now and for the foreseeable future completely free. Just like our exchange sites Britcoin.co.uk (GBP), Intersango.com (EUR) and Intersango.us (USD), we take absolutely no commission. Wallet features include: * Passwords are properly hashed * Proper db permissions * Simple Interface * Support Via Email: support@britcoin.co.uk* Who we are: www.bitcoinconsultancy.comWe plan on building an FAQ page and a good start is by answering the questions in this thread. Contact us privately for any questions you may have which you wish to keep private at support@britcoin.co.uk

Bitcoin addresses contain a checksum, so it is very unlikely that mistyping an address will cause you to lose money.

I am not quite sure how you even managed to see them. Black on brown? They do not work in opera either. When people launch BTC sites.. do they even ask for a single opinion before hitting up this forum? When you splash it here one would hope the most trivial of issues and design considerations would be worked out.

Maybe read the OP, We plan on building an FAQ page and a good start is by answering the questions in this thread. Contact us privately for any questions you may have which you wish to keep private at support@britcoin.co.ukWe were waiting to see what type of worries/difficulties people have using the service, before writing a help text or FAQ that's irrelevant to most people.

Are we going to get any explanation as to WHY respected community members would be scammers according to you, or is this going to turn into some unfounded FUD thread? If you were looking for the Troll forum, try next door...

Like my post(s)? 12TSXLa5Tu6ag4PNYCwKKSiZsaSCpAjzpu I just can't wait for fall/winter. My furnace never generated money for me before. I'll keep mining until my furnace is more profitable.

You do realise I'm on the front page of bitcoin.org and a long time contributor to the community? i.e I'm admin on the wiki and wrote a lot of it Developed lots of bitcoin code Created Spesmilo (the GUI) Own and operate Britcoin.co.uk which is the only UK exchange and one of the largest Created libbitcoin (on gitorious) Made the stock exchange client for nefario Created the Bitcoin poker site Co-founded Bitcoin Consultancy which pays several members of this community Represented bitcoin several times in mainstream press (see front page of bitcoinconsultancy.com) both on TV and in print. The other developers are also well respected. phantomcircuit made the Python version of bitcoin and has several commits in the mainline. Mizerydearia is the owner of witcoin.com Oh yeah and we release the sourcecode to all of our projects. So it's a bit unfair to call us scammers when we're very public and open about what we do. You can find our IRC channel on Freenode under #bitcoinconsultancy We're a registered company. More details: https://britcoin.co.uk/?page=help

Bitcoin communtiy: Trust NO ONE to hold onto your BTC....unless they say you can really really trust them.
We should be focusing more on getting people to secure their BTC personally than going down the same road over and over. Even if the operators of an online wallet are 100% honest good-guys haven't we seen that setting yourself up as a singluar target is asking to be hacked and possibly losing everyone's BTC.
Countdown to lulz-a-caust begins now.

Genjix, Phantomcurcit and the rest of that crew are some of the most serious people in the entire BTC scene. They have done more for bitcoin than most other people will ever do.
I use Britcoin and Intersango and will definitely be looking into this particularly if it gets linked to their exchanges so you can do superfast forex leveraging. This looks like it's going to be a fantastic tool for the community.
Oh and as far as I know they're the only ones working on getting government recognition as a commodity, so their exchanges can be covered by insurers etc. I suspect and hope that a service like this would also come under such coverage in the future particularly if it's linked to exchanges.
Great project guys and thanks for contributing.
