Thanks!

Thanks again Omega,

Everything Omega wrote is correct.

Its a multi signature wallet , giving you the ability to control both private keys wouldn't make any sense , nothing is stored in their servers as well so even If they get hacked there is nothing to be worried about.
If it ever happens and the service goes down for one reason or another then you could recover it[1][2] using the documents they gave you when you first installed the wallet.

I think that if transformed after received the payment such as the Xapo or Coinbase, whether in this wallet where we can find the private key? Although already in the acquisition of Bitmain but if the hack of course we need the private key.

This is a great suggestion, I want that as well. You are in luck because this is in the pipeline/roadmap coming to your bitcoin wallet soon

Its normal that It makes a new address each time , Its an HD wallet and this is for your privacy. Using the same address over and over is not recommended but Its possible to do and you will receive your money.

I'm trying to create a wallet blocktrail, but that makes me confused, why the address always changing while not accepting payment? Can we always use one address only?

Is your mobile app from google play supposed to push notifications when we receive bitcoins because I'm not getting any, If not , then It would be really helpful If you could implement it so the app works in the background and give notifications when needed. If funds for example moved from your wallet from another device , when you receive BTC etc..

long time no go blocktrail wallet, and it was in acquisition by bitmain:

Welcome to your new BTC.com Wallet by Blocktrail

Blocktrail has been acquired by Bitmain, and our services are now offered at BTC.com!

Thank you for being a loyal Blocktrail user! We look forward to continue to deliver you the most powerful Bitcoin wallet as BTC.com
Read the annoucement On our blog

I very like with this announcement, I sure this acquisition reinforces the wallet.

To keep this topic clean of too much noise, could you contact [email protected] or PM me with a screenshot of the page not loading with the "Developer Console" open? (hit F12 to open the tab with the developer tools and then click on "Console") 

If by "not loading" you mean you have the three colors but the form never shows up then , I used to have this problem in several sites (including this one) and I usually fix it by switching to another browser or by clearing the cookies and cache of the browser .

It's taking a little long to load but the site is loading just now. Maybe you have a problem woith your internet or maybe your browser. Check your connectiomn first or change browser if it still not loads then maybe try using a different connection.

https://wallet.btc.com/#/setup/register   is  not loading .

As OmegaStarScream explained we've rebranded the wallet to BTC.com but under the hood it's still the same technology.

If you're having any issues feel free to contact [email protected] (or [email protected]) so we can help you resolve them.

It is , Blocktrail switched to BTC.com recently and you can make a new wallet from here https://wallet.btc.com/#/setup/register just make sure to make a backup of the PDF file that they give you , that could be useful If something bad happens and you want to recover your wallet.

I am not able to signup to create a new wallet.  Is this wallet still working?

no, this wallet is absolutely not like Coinbase.

Coinbase is what we call a "custodial wallet", a wallet that owns your bitcoins and will (most of the time) send those bitcoins to other people when you ask them to.

Our wallet (and all other "non-custodial wallets") will make sure that at all times YOU own your bitcoins, we don't have access to your bitcoins and you have the means (a backup of private keys etc) to take your bitcoins out of the wallet even when the wallet provider (us) would want to deny you access to it.
The service that our wallet provides is merely making the process of you using your private keys to send and receive bitcoins easier.

Because the nature of how custodial wallets own your bitcoins they can send bitcoins to other people who use the same wallet provider without having to an actual bitcoin transaction, they can just do -balance and +balance in their database in that case.

non custodial wallets can't do this because the bitcoins need to be moved from your address to the other persons address, so it always requires paying the transaction fee to the miners for the bitcoin transaction.


A good way to seeing the big difference between the 2 wallets is also that we can't help you recover your wallet if you've lost both your password and your backup document, because there's no way we can ever touch your bitcoins, only you can with either your password or the information on the backup document!

I have a doubt. Is this wallet is like coinbase? i mean in coinbase if we do any transaction there is no fee. Is this wallet also has the same feature?

It's being sometime since I reported it and It wasn't you who answered me , It was neutraLTC and he told me he will send the issue to the developers . anyway thanks , happy It got fixed.   btw , shouldn't the PROMO code thing be available in web version too ?

Fixed, not sure how it got through if you reported it, but I also don't recall a report of it (which could still be my mistake xD)

will be in the next release / deploy!
