if your scared, this reveals many things:
1) your relying on an online service for something that causes you emotional distress if lost
2) your relying on an third party for something that causes you emotional distress if lost
3) you cannot be arsed to double check your balance using a different option

i think its time you reviewed your lapse in security. and get a proper bitcoin wallet program....

if anyone else is getting worried about blockchain.info balance issues. then you too should realise that you have obviously more than 'disposable' income stored in a online third party service. and then do something about it

It's not only about personal wallets, it's about businesses using blockchain.info API. Sad

But you are right, it's definitely time to switch to other platform.



Have a look at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=605737 (my project to develop a new blockchain explorer. See http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/279ssy/dont_panic_blockchaininfo_is_not_connected_to_the/ for more info about the Blockchain.info situation.
