Thank you for the tips.

Yes, you can do this manually on the front end. Using BBcode or HTML

Code:

[img width=500]https://bitcoindata.science/api/fiattobtc.php?fiatamount=1000&currency=EUR&date&bold[/img]

in HTML you can do this:

Code:

<img src=https://bitcoindata.science/api/fiattobtc.php?fiatamount=1000&currency=USD&date&bold width=500/>

I know that this technique is possible to enlarge the image, but I have to admit that aesthetically it doesn't look beautiful.
But, come on, that's what I'm all about being a perfectionist.  



EDIT:

For example, if you want to use a blue background in talkimg, you can just wrap it with a blue div:

For TalkImg, what I liked was a gift, where I alternated between the balance and the last 3 donations.

@bitmover
As someone who keeps a lot of open tabs in their browser, I'm wondering if it's possible to have pop-up alerts ^{[e.g. incoming transactions or rather newly confirmed transactions]} on the "Address Balance Checker" tool?
^{- FWIW, I usually shut down my computer once every few months.}

I created a pop-up that will appear when you receive a new transaction, or when an unconfirmed one is confirmed.



Please tell me if you see any bugs or suggestions

Thank you so much for the addition of this feature... At first, it seemed to be working perfectly but after clicking the reload data button, I'm no longer getting any pop-ups for subsequent incoming or unconfirmed transactions.
^{- BTW, I was monitoring it while I was watching a movie in a split-screen mode and I didn't hear any pop-up sounds (it'd be nice to have one or maybe even one of those flashy tab notifications).}

Thanks for help me testing.

Now I added a notification icon, which will make a sound and call you back to the page (you need to grant permission for notifications).
I also changed the title of the page with (1), so you know some notification is there, which will disappear after you click on the notification.

I believe there are no bugs left, and it will call you for more incoming transactions.

You're very welcome and massive thanks for adding a feature that allows me to ditch a service that requires attaching an email.

Yes, I can also confirm that the bug I mentioned earlier no longer exists, but for some reason, I think the browsers that I use are misconfigured because no matter what I do ^{[adjusted the permissions and emptied the cache + hard reload]}, I can't hear any sound notifications ^{[fortunately, the title changes now, so that's good enough for me (thank you once again )]}.

I have to admit these kind of features could come handy sometimes. Keep up the good work on your website!

The service works great! I've already tested it several times today.

Hello all,

I have added a small feature, based on @examplens suggestion.

I added a download button for .json and .csv file in the balance checker tool.

You can now check the balance of up to 465 addresses simultaneously , and download your search in a file.

This is a great feature! it will be useful for sure!

Thank you for taking the time to do all this work for the community bitmover

I have to ask: why 465?

This is a limitation of the URL size.

As it is a GET request, each address goes into the URL parameter in the browser internally.

It works like this. WHen you enter the addresses in the web page, your browser will make this request:

Code:

https://blockchain.info/balance?active=ADDRESS1|ADDRESS2.....

The size of this URL becomes huge with a few addresses.

Each browser has a different limit. 465 is a safe number, however, you might be able to make it work with more addresses using google chrome which has a higher limit (it also depends on the address formats, which may vary as well)

You might find some more useful discussions here:

https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/maximum-length-of-a-url-in-different-browsers/

Edit: I also made a different code if you are using less than 20 addresses, using mempool.space. It is slower, but you will make one request for each address (so you will make a total of 20 requests). More than that, you will get block, so I use the other API from blockchair.
Mempool.space API is better and gives more details about unconfirmed transactions as well.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Yesterday I used the site and everything was working normally, so the problem may have started within the last 12 hours.

I think you need to look at the site data on the hosting or you made a mistake when making some updates.

Well, I am under a DDOS attack. Even cloudflare couldn`t stop it. I switched to a far more aggressive configuration now.




From 50k requests per day, to 700k.

I am still open for suggestions on the Free Plan of cloudflare, if anyone has some experience about it

I know some of the IP which are attacking, but they are many from all over the world...

That's typical for a DDOS. It must be far too cheap by now, to attack basically any site that makes something nice.

It seems to me that the attack has slowed down a bit now.
I hope that the sharper configuration of CF will not cause problems with the operation of the tools, considering that they are all automated.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's a CloudFlare tactic to push him to a paid plan.

About time to introduce new legislation around the world that criminalizes ISPs for routing malicious bandwidth.

That would put an end to these "rent-a-DDoS" attacks.

That's the thing with DDOS: it's just a device requesting a website. It's not easy to know if it's a human or an infected device doing it.

That's exactly why Internet Service Providers (of the DDoSing device) should be punished for letting malicious traffic flow out from their servers to the wider Internet, because they should be able to identify and stop such traffic better than anyone else. It would also force them to take their security more seriously and invest in identifying malicious traffic patterns, with AI I guess.

That sounds a lot like deep packet inspection and the end to net neutrality. I don't think we should go down that road.

I'd be much more in favour of punishing manufacturers who's devices can get abused, but that would be the end of every large software company
