We are pleased to introduce the first release of Hive Web, a mobile web wallet that supports multicurrencies. It currently supports Bitcoin and Litecoin but other cryptocurrencies will be offered soon. It has Waggle, a geolocation feature, which allows users to transact quicker with people nearby. It is an HD wallet so we do not hold your keys on our server. Please keep your seed phrase safe. If you lose it, you lose your coins! It's pretty awesome, but it’s also brand spanking new. Things can still go wrong, so we’d recommend you do not store too many coins in here just yet. If you do find any issues, please let us know via the support link in the app. |

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

I just downloaded this wallet on my phone yesterday for simple transaction around NYC such as the food vendors at the BTC fest downtown on Sundays.
I really like it, the UI is slick and easy-to-learn, the app is lightweight - downloaded super fast.

Questions:
1. Is this up on github?
2. I assume the wait after pin entry is key stretching... 15 seconds is a while to wait... and I have an iPhone 5...
3. Not showing unconfirmed received transactions at all? :-/ I understand zeroconf security is low, but really?... If I want to send bitcoin to a friend, they have to wait 10 minutes to get any sort of visual feedback, at all? (even if they can't spend it, having quick visual feedback is important imo)
...
Will continue with more questions once I can actually use my coins and look into it further.
Looks promising, but is very beginner-geared with no advanced options available. Hopefully those will come down the pipeline someday soon... maybe do like Wallet32 and have us tap a walrus 10 times to enter advanced mode or something...

A question:
Can you update the design to the Android Wallet.
Or do a new App, like Greenaddress.it they use a App showing the Wallet Website
Open Source ?

Ok, so I think this is a bug.
I sent bitcoins to my hive web wallet, and it wasn't showing up in the history at all...
check blockchain, it got confirmed! check hive web....... it finally shows up in history!!!
As "pending"... and my balance did not increase.
I now have 6 confirms.... and then it finally says a date... but my balance isn't updated?
I click the refresh circle icon... no balance. I close the browser, re-open it... now the balance shows.
Zero-conf should be "pending" and 1 conf should be a timestamp and balance update, imo.
idk, this kinda turned me off to it... and it's not something I'd push to newcomers either. (Hey guys! there's a new payment method and it's super cool! check it out!... *1 hour later*... AND here's your bitcoins! *friend has confused look on his face at this "revolutionary" 1 hour wait for $2...)
Brand spanking new wallet, so there's time to improve, but initial first impresson = yeeeahhhh, I'm gonna wait til you guys get kinks worked out here, I guess...

Ok, so I had 0.01 BTC in my balance, I go to send 0.01 BTC expecting an explanation about mining fees etc. or maybe a screen where I can select my mining fee?
Nope, big red X that says "You do not have enough funds in your wallet." that's it.
A new user will definitely be confused if they just to happen to want to spend the whole balance.
AT LEAST have the not enough funds message include "If you are trying to send your whole balance, please subtract 0.0001 BTC from your total as a mining fee." etc.

Yup, here: https://github.com/hivewallet/hive-jsstandardised warning:

This isn't actually an online wallet like Coinbase - we don't keep your keys, they're only stored on the client. |

Trying it on Windows Phone. It just shows a blue screen with a hexagon. I can't tell if it's loading or not :/

An economy based on endless growth is unsustainable.

What's your browser & version? Zero-conf should be "pending" and 1 conf should be a timestamp and balance update, imo.
Indeed: https://github.com/hivewallet/hive-js/issues/121I'm gonna wait til you guys get kinks worked out here, I guess...
Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate your patience. Cheers man  Side note, there's an in-app support button on the bottom of the drawer. Just another bug report channel in case you haven't noticed |

What's your browser & version?
iPhone 5 iOS 7.1.1, Chrome App, latest version as of now. PC, Chrome. Latest version as of now. Both of them did not update, even though there were 6 confs (confirmed in separate tab on PC in Chrome via blockchain.info) The Circle spinny icon in the upper right did not update the balance when tapped/clicked. I have to hit the refresh button on chrome and type in my PIN. |

An updated version has been deployed which should fix the confirmation time problems people were having.

We need a more stable API than anything we've found so far. Working on that though. |

I know the address changes when a new transaction is made. Anyway, can you make an option to import private key and also can you make an option , so that we can choose whether a new address should be made or not. Or you can make another app as standard wallet. ~~MZ~~ |

Hi hivers! I copy-paste here my question from the Mac thread to the- hopefully - appropriate thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=304060.msg8478905#msg8478905If I understand things correctly: Do I only need my wallet seed (12 words) to recover my funds (and addresses; there is currently one address in the Hive wallet but I guess more will be added) from 3rd party sources, or do I need the actual address or addresses as well? |

How would you address the concerns about Hive Web as stated on bitcoin.org? https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-walletWhat are the pros for Hive Web when considering Hive Web vs. Electrum? When I asked this specific question outside the Hive topic I mostly got favorable recommendations for Electrum (mods: I hope it's OK to post the link in this context): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=750028I am interested in the perspective of the Hive folks as well. |

You only need the 12-word passphrase to recover your funds. You can learn more about passphrase, PIN and addresses here: https://github.com/hivewallet/hive-js/wiki/Hive-Web-FAQ |

If you compare all the web wallets listed you can see that they all share the "centralized" and "remote app" bullet points. Yes, we could do something about it but the solution is not technically trivial, so I don't have a good answer for you, at least speaking for the short term. As for "vulnerable environment", we could add two-factor auth. The reason why it's not there is because we started off as a mobile web app - 2FA doesn't add much to security if one uses the app from their mobile browser. |

Hey!
For some reason I cant type in the skype chat, so ill just type it here.
I cant access hive web. It stuck on syncing wallet or verifying pin. To get around this, I usually just open an incognito window, and just type my key in, but that wont work either. Dont know what yo do.
Thanks.
