was a bit strange but just so you know - I tried logging in blockchain with a recently changed password and it didnt recognise it. So I tried my old password, then it worked!

Now the new password is working again. Just thought I'd post this message as that was quite a disconcerting bug.

There was a note from the hosting service that it was an archived version of the site running for a bit.

Well. It seems that everything is working. Wallet, balance, transactions.

F**K!!!!!!

If you have any amount of coins or funds in ANY online Bitcoin account, where you would say "F**K!!!!!!" if that online service went belly up you have too much stored there.

What do you mean?

I have my identifier and password. Is that not enough?

In the end it always boils down to knowing the private key for each address you have funds in. The address and this private key is the only information which matters. Everyone able to access those is able to spend the funds.

Please recall, your coins aren't stored "in" the wallet. They are in the blockchain!

Is there another way to check balances of addresses? I always used block chain

google: block explorer (not as pretty, but it works)

Also, I really think and hope piuk is going to fix the problem, but like I said above, he's been pretty quiet online for the last week, which is the only reason I doubt at all.  Plus anyone can get hacked...  I would recomend that people NOT try to login to their wallets during this outtage because if some hacker has got control of the server, he could be trying to harvest your passwords in order to unencrypt your wallet, so just wait it out or make a new wallet and test with that one till it's working again...

FFS I cannot get the wallet page to load at all

I dont believe i ever set up an email part with block chain.

Are my coins lost? Surely its just the site playing up no?

Not sure if blockchain is still able to email people backup wallets or not, but you may want to try it right now if your in this position.

It worked this morning, but is currently throwing an error.

No, you would have needed to export your wallet (either encrypted using your blockchain password OR unencryped)...  Then you can import those into armory or multibit as someone else suggested..    Not sure if blockchain is still able to email people backup wallets or not, but you may want to try it right now if your in this position.

if piuk's code is sound (i believe it is), then as long as you have a backup AND a solid password, even if someone stole their database, it should still not cause a problem...  Now if people are using weak passwords then you might want to transfer funds from your blockchain backup wallet to another wallet (Qt, armory, paper, etc.)

How do I decrypt AES encrypted wallet backup? It was sent to me (several weeks ago) from blockchain.info by email, but I do not know which key is used for decrypting it.

It should be encrypted with your Blockchain.info password. While I've never tried it, the Multibit client should decrypt and import it for you.
