Bitamp Bitcoin Web Wallet - Send & Receive Bitcoin Instantly!

[btcsmlcmnr]

Hey,

I see in the Receiving tab with 3 default receiving addresses for 3 types. I can choose one of them from the drop down menu.
In the Address tab, if I choose each type of address, I will have a very long list of addresses with the address type.

Can I ask for the same long list in Receiving tab?
- Example: I choose the second address in the Address tab. Not choose the first one (the is a default one in Receving tab). So the question, how do I add it to the Receive address and get its QR code there? Is it possible?
- I suggest to include a new space for copy and paste receiving address after I choose an address type in the dropdown menu. As long as the address I copy and paste it is belong to the list in Address tab, it will be accepted. If I copy and paste an address from somewhere else (not belong to that wallet), it will be rejected.

My two cents.

I also see 2 tabs in developments: Lightning and Exchange.

Any sneek peak for Exchange tab, please.

I am new to bitamp web wallet. I created it instantly which the web provided a seed phrase for the wallet. It is so nice smooth and easy to use bitcoin wallet. I can recommend this to my friends and relatives that are also into bitcoin.

Is there any by chance that the web walley could create an app in which we will going to use instead of manually or bookmark the site for us to access? I prefer an app that could also be connected to a 2FA like mobile phone or email for verification purposes only every transaction that will going to be made to keep us aware that if by chance someone has access our account and made withdrawals then we will be notified thru a code provided as a 2FA before one can proceed into the transaction.

All the address is received address. just copy it one to provide payment. I think if you received payment on the second or third address it will be received address by default.

Any sneek peak for Exchange tab, please.

What's the safest crypto?

Probably Bitcoin, and not for a single reason. It’s arguably too big too fail now. Governments can’t stop it. Hackers can’t crack it, quantum computers won’t get near for many years, and it’s also got states and pension funds and big institutions all backing it now. It’s here to stay, and that’s as safe as it gets for crypto!

Agree?

The future of bitcoin definitely looks more secure now than ever, and as you say the fact that it's drawing in institutional players is a major factor. The quantum computer vulnerability does concern me, though. Whilst it's true that a viable QC attack on bitcoin is some way off, it's also true (I think) that bitcoin won't be able to respond immediately. Moving bitcoin to a quantum-proof cryptography means that all coins from all addresses will also have to be moved. Any coins that are not moved - and this includes 'lost' coins - will remain vulnerable to attack. One common estimate is that around 20% of bitcoins are 'lost'... and a sufficiently powerful QC running Shor's algorithm would be able to acquire these. Should they want to (assuming for conspiracy theory purposes that the QC is owned by a state actor that sees crypto as a threat), the thief could then dump these coins on the market and trigger a catastrophic and perhaps terminal crash.
I do agree with your point, and as you say a viable QC is likely years away, but this threat needs to be addressed long before it actually becomes a threat.

Is it safe to stake on Kraken? What are the chances of it getting hacked?

Only as safe as trusting Kraken. It’s a big exchange, and regulated, so that is some degree of safety and trust there. Plus it hasn’t had a bad reputation over the years.

But in the end, no amount of promises or guarantees protect you if Kraken decided to go bust overnight, or if they got hacked for everything. It’s their word.

Better to trust yourself with your own Electrum or Bitamp wallet IMO.

I asked before but I didn't get any anwser so far...
Do you plan to add manual fee option for sending Bitcoin in Bitamp wallet, similar like it is in Electrum wallet.
Currently there is only priority, regular and slow fees.

My personal take after a first test drive:

• UI - Sleek and easy to use, switching between functions and tabs looks good
• Tx fees - As others have already noted, I would prefer to be able to set my own fees so let's say a custom options would be great
• Lightning - Any ETA regarding when this will be ready?

I could suggest this wallet for newcomers who would like to have a quick start with BTC and I will reserve to modify my review in the future.

The wallet is light and simple, the operation is not difficult. But there are several questions:
1. Based on the fact that it is positioned as a wallet on the client side - is it possible to work in an offline browser? I didn't succeed, or tell me how to achieve this
2. Open source code is a plus for the project - anyone can check it if they have knowledge. The question is - was the code security audit done?

the upcoming Lightning and exchange features are really valuable add-ons to this wallet. if they will add their internal exchange, it means they may be adding more coins in the list. hopefully to see eth, ltc, xrp, doge in the list.
if those features will be added, i believe they can attract more users to use this wallet.

Not possible. What purpose?  is for to create an offline wallet?.

I talked much on pages 1 and 2 of this thread. Bitamp uses BIP 39 mnemonic seed, you can use https://iancoleman.io/bip39/ to create an offline wallet and using bitamp wallet to create transactions.

Thanks for the reply and yes, you can use Bitamp offline (since it's a client side wallet) but you will need to be online to broadcast transactions.

Try it, just save a local file for bitamp wallet creation and you can still create your wallet offline.

New user of bitamp wallet here and have a quick question aside from web wallet is there any app available? I search it on google playstore but I can't find it. Also I find the exchange is in development hopefully xrp and USDT will be added since this is more adopted by the traders.

Anyways I love the site so far  since look good to my eyes.

Thank you but it is for technical guy that I am not. I will wait for its official release and try to get my experience with Bitamp Exchange feature.

Do you have a guide for the offline wallet creation process? If you have it, can you share me a link to read and I will practice steps to create a wallet offline. I only found this article on your blog https://blog.bitamp.com/how-to-create-your-own-bitcoin-wallet/

AFAIK, there still no mobile apps of this wallet available on playstore or in there official website. I'm waiting too on there mobile a so that I can finally replace my electrum wallet with there official mobile app. I really like the simplicity and easy to use of there Web wallet, I hope that they can do it the same on there mobile apps soon.

Can't wait. I hope that Bitamp support will read and answer our request.

Well, I'm also waiting for the mobile application, what if it's available, maybe a lot of people will switch from other wallets to Bitamp.
Honestly, I currently still use the Electrum wallet in bitcoin transactions, but if Bitamp has made its application provision then I will move this will make it easier for me where I can transact anywhere with the Bitamp application.
Let us continue to support so that developers are faster in providing their applications.

Yes, I do agree that most of us here still uses Electrum, but Bitamp could be a good alternative if they have a friendly mobile app that we can carry with us any time. I would say that development is really quick since Bitamp has started, and another thing is that they've listen to their clients in this community. So no doubt that sooner we will hear the official mobile apps of Bitamp going into test mode and finally into production and final release.

@btcsmlcmnr - here is the answer for the creation of offline wallet.

Actually, yes you can. A lot of complicated ways to strip the code but you can even just store this page offline if you want: https://wallet.bitamp.com/#/create.html

It'll still generate a new seed for you every time you click, without being connected to the internet. This is all client side, you never transmit it across the internet;)

[harizen]

That shouldn't be the main reason.

The fact that this "web wallet" is an open-source and they give users complete control of their keys and seeds is already a big reason why people should consider using Bitamp which we can't see in other web wallets.

Yes, I do agree that most of us here still uses Electrum, but Bitamp could be a good alternative if they have a friendly mobile app that we can carry with us any time.

In terms of convenience, the mobile app is not necessary as accessing it thru our mobile browser is user-friendly.

Just did a quick browse at the wallet's interface on my mobile's stock browser and it's smooth.

Next will be, using the wallet for its purpose.

Thanks for the answer, I was only interested because of the wording "client-side wallet", I thought that you can sign transactions offline and then, going online, send them.
And on the second question there is no information - about the audit of the source code? Having such an audit would be very positive for the project

[mgoz]

If you guys are actually open source and your project has an MIT license, why do you contact domain registrars claiming sites that are hosting an exact, unmodified copy of your source code, are phishing sites? Also, why aren't any of your PHP files used in the MIT licensed HTML/CSS/JS included in the project for review?

GoDaddy recently suspended one of my domains for hosting an exact copy of your MIT licensed project, which existed for over 6 months. When I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau, GoDaddy claimed you contacted them stating the domain was a phishing site. Why did you license under MIT if you don't want anyone to copy it?

All I want to know is if you in fact contacted GoDaddy first or if they are liars.

I disagree though, there are crypto users who prefer to used their mobile apps for everything related to their crypto activity, that's why Binance has it's own mobile version, even coins.ph (Philippine local exchange) has it's own mobile.

Besides, it's a good gauge how 'many' are using your apps with the amount of downloads you got, might not be an accurate picture, but still you know that someone is using your apps.

In any case, we will just have to wait for Bitamp developers as it is in their roadmap if I'm not mistaken.
