Strange.

That transaction references Satoshi dice.
Did the dice break the Internet? Tongue

I just use the tools as supplied (android and web); do they load balance on their own (I accept that it's highly unlikely that I would ever get near 800 per hour with just those applications, I'm asking out of interest)?

The android/iphone and web client all use the api so are limited as well. You can view your current number of requests on the api page: http://blockchain.info/api - the 800 might actually be a little low.

The "transactions aren't being broadcast" problem still persists. I'm on day 3 and still can't send my funds outside of my blockchain.info wallet.

I think i've probably found the cause of this:

This transaction:

http://blockchain.info/tx-index/5567308/e1dab7fe6f9dc5d2ce9fa1947eb95cc02ab6e0a39fb2db34592331b61325800a

Is missing an input:

http://blockexplorer.com/tx/e1dab7fe6f9dc5d2ce9fa1947eb95cc02ab6e0a39fb2db34592331b61325800a

I don't know if this is the only one but I have an automated tool to fix inconsistencies like this which is running now.

The "transactions aren't being broadcast" problem still persists. I'm on day 3 and still can't send my funds outside of my blockchain.info wallet.

Thankfully it's easy to export my private key and I've managed to import it into other clients so I still have access to my funds...but it's annoying that I can't use blockchain.info's wallet when it's designed to be used Tongue

I'd used the service for about 10 days successfully with only minor issues where the wallet balance got out of sync with the rest of the network but those problems seemed solved on Thursday or Friday of last week.
Then on Sunday transactions just stopped being relayed to the bitcoin network.

It's only two inputs that are being signed so I'm reasonably certain it's not a tx size issue. From reading it seems those issues present a clear error message to the user.
No errors come up- actually, a SUCCESS message comes up saying the payment was sent! It just never appears either on blockchain.info or the bitcoin network itself.

Despite this recent hiccup, I really like the way te blockchain.info wallet is designed. Hopefully this bug will be squashed soon.
Please let me know if there is any information I can provide to help you identify the problem!
And thanks for making an amazing web app!

New API Request limits in place (800 per hour or 150 per 5 minutes). You can view your current usage: http://blockchain.info/api

Each server has a separate primitive counter, so you can increase the limit by balancing your requests properly:

Couldn't you just set up a DNS round robin over those servers?

Bug with kaptcha not validating should be fixed.

Still trying to find the issue with some transactions not being broadcast.

Having some issues with Bitcoind. Trying to diagnose now.

Any chance you could add a tx count chart that excludes all SatoshiDice transactions? The whole chart has become less interesting because it basically just tells us how much SatoshiDice is being played. I would be interested in an alternative chart and I think I'm not the only one.

Piuk,

There are no error messages.
The problem seems to exist in both OSX Safari, iOSSafari, and your Blockchain.info iOS app.

In all 3 cases this is what I see:
I fill out the tx details (to, amount)
I click Review Payment
I see it sign the relevant inputs and prompt me to send the payment
I click Send payment
I see the green ajaxy "transaction submitted" line pop up and disappear

I do NOT hear the "ding" indicating a new transaction and I do not see that transaction in my tx list.

It behaves as if you are receiving my transaction but are not forwarding it to the Bitcoin network.

I went to bed and woke up and still see the same symptoms today. I've retried the same transaction about 10 times since yesterday. I also tried submitting other transactions with 1, 2, or 3 outputs to various addresses. None seem to go through.

Let me know if you'd like additional debug information,

Could this be used as a backend for a bitcoind instance that's powering a p2pool node? Or is that not supported?

No Sorry mining isn't supported.

Is it just me, or has the blockchain.info wallet service not been able to transmit a single transaction over the last 8-10 hours?

I've gone and sent BTC a few times throughout the day, and none of the transactions get listed in my transaction list.
Also, the BTC I sent were not deducted from my balance either. It's as if blockchain.info isn't relaying my transactions to the Bitcoin network.

Has anyone else noticed this?

--TE

What browser/os are you using? When you try and send are there any errors in the javascript console?

New JSON RPC API Available:

http://blockchain.info/json_rpc_api

Should be almost fully compatible with the Bitcoind RPC api so you can use your blockchain.info online wallet with any existing software which uses bitcoind.

Simple change -rpcconnect to point to blockchain.info and use your wallet identifier for -rpcuser and wallet password for -rpcpassword.

Be sure to read the security notes if you plan on using this.

Wow.  Now that is what I call awesome.

There has often been talk of there being bitcoin "supernodes" in the future.  I suspect that in blockchain.info is evolving to be just that before our eyes.

I support freedom of choice
Nobody used it, I guess Escrow is kind of useless without arbitration. If it does come back it will probably be in P2SH form.
Ah, I didn't check the last time, I thought that it was already in P2SH form.
