they just issued a refund for most affected btc address, so everyone who lost something got most of their btc back.

i guess it was a huge wide spread of blockchain address.

so you telling me that all these people here are paid back by blockchain?

is there a certain malware to watch out for that steals btc? i only go on sites to watch movies and everything else is legit sites.

Just don't download files from non-trusted cryptocurrency sites. Just check the links are correct. For example see http://blocckchain.info/ (Scam site - don't enter ID or password), URL is similar to blockchain.info's that we don't recognize correctly. So be careful. Smiley

im aware this happened ot people with blockchain wallets, but do you think it could be a similar incident with desktop wallets? or no?

Malwares can steal your BTC or if you didn't back-up and you formatted pc, but there is possibility that you can recover it.

Did you click on some links and entered your ID and pass or just ID? There are many scam sites going on, the links will be so similar that we won't see. So everytime, before you login, check the link twice or thrice. Smiley

Good advice. Wink

Can never be too safe these days.

There's definitely something up with blockchain wallet. Cpl of days back I tried pushing a transaction but it just wouldn't go through, I suspected something was wrong and immediately opened electrum, entered my prv-key and moved all the coins to a safer address.

I used to believe if my computer is clean and only access from reliable internet, I would be fine. But these blockcahin.info incidents are worrying me. I am considering moving all my money out before it is too late.

It seems like its part of the Reused R hack which happened a few days back. Blockchain is loaded so if they indeed messed up this time even after knowing that the addresses were compromised, they will pay back.

3.5 BTC is peanuts for them.

BlockChain.info fuck up again,what cause this accident? Hacker? Or technical issues?
I'm lucky my wallet is fine so far but now I'm a little worry about my coins because I don't know if I could trust the online wallet now.

This is fucked up, At first, I sent a support ticket and they answered almost like instantly when they said that the "address" wasn't working; well yeah, I accidentally had a wrong address, then after I corrected myself, they started to not reply anymore. Made one more ticket since I need the money urgently... God damn it blockchain -_-.

Another unhappy blockchain wallet customer, this is starting to get out of control.
People losing coins, hacked, 2fa being set up with not authorised. ect.
Seems like there is a new story everyday.
My blockchain wallet has been hacked for a very small amount once.

WTF, another problem with blockchain.info
There are too much bad case with blockchain.info in this month

Luckily, i still don't get any problem

any superir  value goes straight to off wallet (Bitcoin Core)
