I ended up using CoinPunk which is most excellent.

https://github.com/kyledrake/coinpunk

It ports nicely to alt coins as well with a fair bit of work as it uses CoinPunk, BitcoinJS, Insight-API and Bitcore. This is my work below Smiley

If anyone needs an online wallet ported then let me know Wink

not exactly a wallet but still quite nice :http://brainwallet.org/
That site is backdoored, the button bypasses window.crypto and directly uses math.random. Math.random() is typically a 32-bit LCG, practically no entropy at all.

By the way, would you have some equivalent (but secure!) website where you can edit your transactions client side and get a bit into the protocol easily ?

Thanks!
I must admit I did not check the code...

It's still unclear to me if OP is interested in finding out about open source wallet projects to check their code and see if it's secure or try and implement one.
If the latter... I hope you know what you're doing.

I prefer Zakir over Muhammed when mentioning me!
Blockchain.info wallet is much better! It doesn't save passwords in it server and therefore, keep our account safe. You can look this post for making your account more secure.  Smiley

source is here:

Just remember to WRITE DOWN THE PASSPHRASE IT GIVES YOU UPON WALLET CREATION.

There is currently no way to show this again after the wallet is created.

With this phrase you can restore all bitcoin addresses.

AFAIK blockchain.info is open source.

https://github.com/blockchain

I was checking https://github.com/blockchain/My-Wallet for a blockchain.info wallet clone. But, it seems, there is no DB connection or any other DB related files in this project. So I doubt if it is a complete project ?

I believe this project is released for security sake (transparency) for blockchain.info.

It still connects to the BlockChain.info API which you would have to essentially write on your own and reimplement. So you were correct when guessing it was not a complete project.

It's still under heavy development, but you might want to look into this:

If you are looking for wallet generators, https://github.com/pointbiz/bitaddress.org have a good interface. If you are looking for those who host your wallet, I think blockchain.info is the best.

online wallets are dangerous, better use offline one like multibit, bitcoinarmory, electrum

As long as the online wallet operator does not control the private keys your level of security will be roughly the same.

FYI Multibit, electrum and not offline wallets, they are software wallets (as is armory, but this can be used as an offline wallet)

Is there an open source online wallet available for Bitcoin?

I'm sure that there use to be one but it got hacked. I know people are loathe to run this sort of thing as there are very few services like this that have not been compromised at some point. If anyone knows of one then please let me know.
