No verifier extension installed on this particular computer or Chromium and running Chromium Version 22.0.1215.0 (147829). Still cannot seem to get this to work for whatever reason.
Sorry not sure what the problem would be. Anyone else running Chromium that can test it? I don't think saving your password is a good option to have. No banking website would ever allow that, and Blockchain.info is a similar type of site. One thing that annoys me about the password input box, however, is that it doesn't work with Lastpass (ie, Lastpass can't automatically fill it in). Additionally, you still have to click the login button after two-factor auth with a Yubikey, which isn't necessary on many sites.
Lastpass incompatibility is because the login fields are not wrapped in a <form> tag, it would be very easy to fix if it wasn't for the fact that the verifier disallows form tags. The yubikey issue will be fixed in the next update. How about a remember password checkbox for the session? Session, as in if you don't access it for 4 hours it is automatically logged out.
Storing it in a server session or in cookies would violate the never share password with the server rule. It would have to be stored in localStorage which unfortunately does not have support for automatic expiry of values stored. I will heed the advice and forget remember password functionality for the time being. The support link was removed but the page is still up ( https://blockchain.info/wallet/verifier). Once the chrome extension is packaged for firefox ( Easy bounty if someone wants to pick it up) the verifier will be depreciate. It's a hard sell convincing people the verifier is actually working and cannot be circumvent whereas a packaged extension is full proof. Is this some sort of bug? (1Ny5LAo8pW6kk2oLpXouXuEFHH6wgbYaTD) Seems to be a wrapping issue.

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

Can you explain a bit more how this is so?

The javascript is bundled with the app, so it is downloaded once when installed rather than being downloaded each visit from blockchain.info. The purpose of the verifier was to detect possible changes in javascript being served but since the js is no longer being downloaded its purpose is voided. There is the possibility that malicious changes can still be bundled within the extension but the same issue is possible with desktop clients. Automatic updates can be disabled also.

That really is an improvement in security. Can't wait for the firefox addon!

Piuk,
I would like to tell you that I really appreciate your work on Blockchain.info. It's great sensation when you post here about new features. Thanks.
Could you list your TODO list. I really would like to know what is the blockchain.info future.

Re: lastpass
You can tell LP to save all input and then it works fine.

But what I mean is, the outputs listed don't add up to the total (1 BTC vs 1.001 BTC). Or is that because the .001 btc is a fee (I thought fees were 0.005)?

Lately, when I login to my wallet or click the refresh tx button in top-right corner I get to see a red(pink) message popup saying "Error Decrypting Wallet. Please check your password is correct." Despite this, everything else appears to work - even creating and signing transactions.

It sure does seem from your screenshot that the fee is indeed 0.001. If there is other evidence that the fee was indeed 0.005 (or 0.0005), then there may be a bug, but you'd have to be explicit about what the fee really was - as opposed to what you merely thought it was.

You don't know that you can set bitcoin fees to anything you want? The fee depends on the coin dust-ness, freshness of inputs, tx size per KB.

Sorry not sure what the problem would be. Anyone else running Chromium that can test it? Confirmed: Cannot install Blockchain.info extension on Chromium.EDIT: Disregard that, Chromium was outdated and was on version 20, which was before the Chrome devs allowed unsafe eval.

Updated to chromium version 23. It does not work, after installing and clicking on 'My Wallet' I see the sensitive data popup, the account settings page, and no I'm not even signed in. Obviously the wallet isn't working.
Two warnings when installing (load unpacked) - Unrecognized manifest key api_console_project_id and container.

Piuk,
Could you create a chart showing total of Bitcoins there are in the tagged addresses?
Thanks

Just went to use the new note feature today, it is slick. However for some reason my note window was not going away, so perhaps adding a close button like on transactions? Examples of the Note window hover over others:

Posting to say that you should fix the translations, the italian one is a bit... mmhh... let's say not exactly correct. There are errors and some phrases that even if they aren't technically wrong, they are weird. Whenever i use that site (wich i like really a lot btw) i always go for english language because of that

piuk, do you think you could add a chart that plots what can be seen here?: http://statistics.ecdsa.org/There's no need for the animation, a static current chart would do.

Yes that's a great milestone. Well done it's a fantastic service. Pretty much the definition of hockey stick growth with the acceleration around the end of last year.  Maybe 200,000 before June this year? Looking forward to 1 million, anyone want to make a prediction when that'll be?
