If you like a webWallet I suggest you greenAddress but if you like a desktop wallet (also portable) choose electrum.  Blockchain.info is "bugged".

Blockchain.info seems to be working fine, what's the issue?
The site runs but it's bitcoin client is disconnected from the remaining world and the site doesn't showing up any new blocks.

This isn't the first time that it happens.

TL;DR : Nothing severe - don't panic
I don't panic, but i was looking for alternatives because who knows when blockchain stops working.
So i temporally transferred my coins to electrum and whenever blockchain is back, i will transfer back as blockchain is better than electrum Tongue

Ahhhhh ok cool.
I was beginning to worry, I still have a number of BTC on there that I haven't got round to putting in paper wallets yet.

Just use this since you can still generate TXs through blockchain.info:

Please use this to push your TX through to the network: https://btc.blockr.io/tx/push

Find your TX in hex format by adding "?format=hex" to the end of the blockchain.info TX url.

Then paste that number into: https://btc.blockr.io/tx/push and click 'push immediately'!

Not gonna lie you are the fucking man.

Worked like a charm

That's always good to hear!

What's does it means if node is not connected ?

I'm very worried about this thing  Undecided
bc.info cannot receive/send new transaction / does not check for new block. I can only think these things.

The bitcoin network consist of several players if you will.
The miners: they find blocks and confirm transactions
those running a full node: e.g. me and others using bitcoin core/qt at home or on a server, mining pools or solo miners are running a full node as well. They relay transactions and thus help "everyone else" (see below) to get their transactions to the miners. They also keep a full copy of the blockchain (currently ~33 GB).
everyone else: Everyone else that is using a slim or online wallet like electrum, multibit, bc.i, xapo etc. Those running a slim client either connect via special servers (e.g. electrum) or directly to full nodes (e.g. multibit) to the network. They dont need the full blockchain because those running a full node provide the blockchain for them as needed. Big services like bc.i are similar as you the user do not need a full node, the service provies them for you. What happend today is that the nodes bc.i uses to broadcast your transactions to the other nodes and thus to the miners are down.

I think I have the same problem.
I made a transaction and it dosent shows at blockchain but it shows at blocktrail.
Why?

Thanks!

There is nothing you can do in this case. The TX is confirmed, just wait till bc.i picks up on it and your wallet gets updated.

-link- is another good wallet to store your bitcoins with more good services!! GOOD LUCK !!

Thats not a wallet, thats an exchange and not a very popular[1] one. I would never use an exchange to store coins unless for day trading.

-snip-
Well, remember that if bc.info is not connected to the other nodes,(I'm phone right now) it won't be broadcasted until they are connected again, and you cannot use the coins until they are reconnected and confirmed via blocks.

Yes, not via bc.i directly. Its possible to export the private keys from bc.i (hp still up), import them into e.g. multibit, let multibit sync (should take a couple minutes) and send the btc to a fresh wallet e.g. electrum. The blockchain itself is fine, its just blockchain.info thats having problems.

I don't know, just downloaded backup, should i import this to multibit or not ?

I cant deceided if you trust bc.i or not.

-snip-
IIRC, their backup is only good to import to bc.i at a later stage. You have to export the private keys manually.

AFAIK you can decrypt it manually. I dont know how they encrypt it though.

You should still be able to send funds from your wallet.

The last TX their block explorer knows about was 1 hour ago[1] if you search for the TX id on another block explorer e.g. blocktrail[2] you will notice they dont know about it. This will happen with a newly create TX by OP as well. Thus beeing able to create a TX is not helping as its not broadcasted.
