Blockchain.info - Bitcoin Block explorer & Currency Statistics

[cbeast]

Piuk, I have a feature request:

1- Add on My transactions window a column showing what was the usd value of 1 bitcoin in the exact time someone sent me the coins (for received transaction) and the exact price at time I sent (for sent transactions)
2- On account settings I could choose the data of what exchange will be used and the currency.

Different exchanges have different prices. What happens if the mtgox api goes down? This is a reason for a decentralized exchange price system.

The users will have option to switch between exchanges. Blockchain.info will store data of all exchanges, so the users will just choose what exchange price they want as standard to show on the column. MtGox, Intersango or any other.
So if one exchange is down, we still will have data of all other exchanges.

Feature request

The chart bitcoin market price (https://blockchain.info/charts/market-price) could give option to choose data of any exchange listed on www.bitcoinwatch.com and not only MtGox.

Thanks, silly me, either I missed the uservoice or knew about it and forgot it.

I've been trying to make a paper wallet according to this tutorial, but I don't see an offline mode button on the login page. Is there a new way of doing this? I've never made a paper wallet before.

Hey piuk I have a question.. Can the backup that was sent to my email be decrypted by simply using my password only even if I have sms two factor authentication enabled?

Yes, I imported my encrypted/emailed backup wallet into Multibit after I enabled 2-factor authentication to test it.  It works (no two-factor auth necessary).

Try again, I forgot why exactly but sometimes it does that for no good reason.. For example I don't get any errors..

Can you please add a graph showing the total number of anonymized coins over time?

I did answer this previously. There are no logs of this, so no.

Another feature request (as if you didn't have enough to do right?)  Add Boxcar (http://boxcar.io) as a notification option?

It is free and it rocks.  I use it on several of my projects and love it.

The app has a lot of one star reviews which puts me off a but. I think rather than using a 3rd party for push notifications it would be better to support push notifications within the iphone app itself.

I could see this being useful. Certainly BTC-e & Bitstamp can be added.

2. In your "My Wallet Confirmation code" emails, please send the IP which initiated the login attempt.

The requesters ip will now be shown in the email.

The Offline checkbox was removed, the documentation needs updating. To use offline mode now just disconnect your internet and refresh the login page. Be sure to clear the browsers cache before connecting to the internet again.

Yes, Two factor authentication does not affect wallet encryption. Only the password (and second password) is needed.

bootstrap-popover.js & bootstrap-twipsy.js were removed a while ago. Everything is ok server side so your browser probably has an old version of the page cached. Could you try clearing your browsers cache and logging in again http://www.wikihow.com/Clear-Your-Browser's-Cache.

Whoever has this chrome extension installed: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/plfhcjljnfjpfcbjpgnflfofmahljkjj it is pinging the wallet servlet with incorrect parameters. If you find you get "IP Temporarily banned" errors this is the reason why.

That worked. But it's strange. I used the wallet yesterday and didn't get the alert.

I tried that, but when I went to print off my paper wallet, it only showed my online wallets. I thought about making it online, printing the wallet and then just deleting the private key. Would that be secure enough?

This really is awesome!  Sorry we didn't get a chance to meet up at the BTC conference, it would have been good to thank you personally for the great service you provide to the bitcoin community.

I understand that initial reaction; however I have several points for you to consider:

1. The reason the app has so many low ratings are because people download it not understanding what it is.
2. I have two wallets making the 'integrate into iPhone app' route improbable.

The service is actually pretty good, and I encourage you to at least take a deeper look.  It took me about 15 mins to integrate it the first time I did.  Start here http://boxcar.io/help/api/providers

Piuk,

Something is wrong with the window called about. The window is moving, being hard to users read. I think the problem is because the window latest transaction is ajax.

Block updating has stopped. Something is wrong with your site, piuk.

[teste]

Piuk,

I really think you should change the top bar to something like the one of www.bitcoincharts.com

1- Change the buttons home, charts, stats, api to below the blockchain name/logo
2- In the place of buttons specified above, you could add the informations like: blocks, total of btc, difficulty, ... like how bitcoincharts show.
3- I think the wallet button should be located separated of other buttons and with a better design and bigger size.
4- I think you should remove at least the 3 last lines of the window most recently mined blocks in the bitcoin block chain. I think 10 lines is much.
