Any update on this - anyone using it?

Hi, no update yet, I'm currently working on adding BTC-e and Bitstamp markets.
There are about 350 users by now.

May I suggest you get someone to proof read the entire site. E.g. the FAQ section relating to security:

"Do my Bitcoins are safe?

Yes, your Bitcoins remain where they are, no Bitcoin passes through our website. It is through your API-Key that we send market orders, but in any case your Bitcoins pass through our website, they remain inside your own Wallets for maximum safety."


'All your base...'

Someone was working on it, and it has been proof read since

i contact the owner offering to help with translation, coding and also to have some ratings to back up the sites credibilty. he responded 2 times and has since disappeared.

Someone else is already helping me with translation, and since I don't share the code, I don't need your help, that's what I told you in my last email

Re: Blockchain.info API confirmation is so long ?
by

If you trust blockchain.info the confirmations of the second payment should not matter. We will keep broadcasting the second transaction until it confirms, so although it may take a while it will always confirm eventually.

Otherwise you could manually check the confirmations a ytwg suggested but there are no callbacks for the second transaction.

For the first you mean ?
The first is the transaction from customer to receiving address, the second is the one from the receiving address to my address right ?
But ok i see, wether I wait for the second transaction to confirms and callbacks, or I manually check confirmations of the first transaction.

i had a problem wherei got 1 callback as soon as they sent payment but never again. I found a way around this tho.

i made a php page that gets any waiting confirmation from the database and calls "http://blockchain.info/q/getreceivedbyaddress/{$addressTheyPaid}&confirmations=6"

this will return 0 until 6 confirmations have happened (assuming its not a shared address)

so
if file_get_contents($url) == "0")
// not confirmed
else
// confirmed

i curl this in a cron job every 10 minutes.

hope this helps

Ho yes, I understand what you did there, this is some sort of solution.

I don't know if a blockchain.info API dev will read this but, wouldn't this be a good thing :
Currently, the callback attempts are made when the second transaction (from Receiving Address to Final Address) gets confirmations right ? But this can take up to 24 hours since that transaction has 0 fees.
And the first transaction (From Customer Address to Receiving Address) is confirmed more often since the customer will include fees to his transaction (if he actually does).
So why the callback attempts are not made when the first transaction gets confirmation ?
Am I clear ?  Undecided

Well, I've seen no way to specify fees through the API :s
But adding fees would mean 2x fees, I don't know how to make this work

Blockchain.info API confirmation is so long ?
by
mad68
on 28/03/2013, 03:15:35 UTC
Hi everyone !
I use the Blockchain.info receive API and I did a few tests, but the forwarded transactions are never confirmed.
You can see what I mean here : https://blockchain.info/address/1PbRvpNCshRnjXL23BXKv5LZ1HVNgqQEtG
Address I've sent the money from : 1NLpUQFY6MeKDMezQrvTqVq5v4dCeZECBm
Receiving Address : 1PbRvpNCshRnjXL23BXKv5LZ1HVNgqQEtG
Final Address : 1DiiE1yNZV6QM44HHtEEGkvkrpho2De3P4

So you see that the first part of the transaction has been confirmed several times, but the transaction from the Receiving Address to the Final Address is not confirmed yet. I guess it is because of the 0 fees, but what can I do to make this faster ? Is there a way to define fees with the Generating Receiving Addresses API ?

I'm also using the Double Spends security :
Code:
if ($_GET['confirmations'] >= 6) {
    //Insert into confirmed payments
    echo '*ok*';
} else {
    //Insert into pending payments
    //Don't print *ok* so the notification resent again on next confirmation
}

But since there is no confirmations from the Receiving Address to the Final Address (which would makes the calls to the callback url), then my code is only called once, so the transaction is never confirmed in my callback page :S
Or is there a way to get the confirmations of the first part of the transaction (from the address i've sent money from to the Receiving address) ? I know the callback will give the two transaction hash (from the address i've sent money from to the Receiving address, and from Receiving address to Final Address), but with a transaction hash, is there an API to get the number of confirmations of this transaction hash ?
Help ^^

Stupid fear, am I the only one ?

Tell me about that : I have some Bitcoin on my mtgox.com wallet, and I would like to transfer them on another wallet, and especially a paper wallet that I've never added to any wallet client, I generated it with bitaddress.org
And the fact that I actually can't see my balance, can't check if my Bitcoins have arrived in my new wallet, well this is why my bitcoins are still in mtgox.com wallet ^^
So, is this a stupid fear, am I the only one ?

If you're able to do an SMS alert, I'm so in. Looks awesome, GL!

This would be a nice feature, I'll try to work on it !

First update for the bot with a new type of alerts : you can now be warned if BTC price fall/rise by a given amount, for exemple : send me an email if the price fall by $3 within 1 hour.

Tres bien fait. Ca m'interesse beaucoup.

Moi, j'ai un website similar, mais le mien c'est pour vendre un download en Python. Il n'y a pas de GUI en ce temps, mais il y'a plusiers algorithmes. Allez vous introduire des autres algorithmes?

Y pardonnez moi pour mon mauvais francais! Il ya bien longtemps que je n'ai pas ecrit en français.

Je suis en train de créer de nouvelles fonctionnalités, donc ça va arriver dans ces prochains jours.
Mais je compte le faire évoluer assez souvent pour au final proposer un panel de solutions assez large.

En fait c'est le problème de tout bot, par définition...
C'est dommage d'ailleurs, il faudrait trouver un moyen de sécuriser ça.

Genre une validation de la part de MtGox par SMS tous les 20BTC/1000€ dépensés par le bot.

Ce n'est pas un problème avec un bot sur votre propre ordinateur. C'est pour ça que je prefère un bot dont je peux voir la code avant de l'utiliser.

Oui voila, c'est plutôt de ça dont je parle, car si j'étais malveillant, je pourrais faire n'importe quoi avec vos API (transfère de BTC, achat/vente à n'importe quel prix, etc..
Mais comme dit, je pense que la confiance viendra avec le temps. Je vais faire en sorte en tout cas ^^

C'est bien mais j'ai peur de donner mes clées API. Bonne chance pour ton projet!

Je comprend ta crainte, c'est bien le seul problème que j'ai avec le site ^^

Comment les trades sont effectués entre les différents marchés?
J'imagine qu'il faut donner sa clée API pour MtGox et Bitcoin-24?
Comment est-ce que la sécurité est assurée?

Beau projet!

Oui c'est ça, une fois que tu as un compte, tu peux indiquer tes clés API pour chacun des marchés.
La FAQ répond aux questions de sécurités : https://bitcoin-bot.com/faq
Et bien sur ajouté à cela le SSL pour sécuriser la communication client - serveur

Bonjour à tous, voici mon premier message sur le forum francophone  Smiley
Je viens vous présenter Bitcoin-bot.com, un site que j'ai créé qui permet entre autre d'automatiser le trading de Bitcoins sur Bitcoin-24.com et MtGox.com actuellement.

Voici ce que Bitcoin-bot.com peut faire pour vous actuellement :
1. Il vous averti par mail/SMS quand le prix du BTC atteint des seuils que vous définissez, par exemple : envoie moi un email quand le prix du marché est inférieur à 55€
2. Il vous averti par mail/SMS quand le prix du BTC augmente ou baisse sur une période donnée, par exemple : envoie moi un email dès que le prix du marché aura augmenté d'au moins 5€ en moins de 1 heure
3. Il peut passer des ordres d'achat/vente quand le prix du marché atteint des seuils que vous définissez, par exemple : si le prix du marché devient inférieur à 55.5€, alors achète 2.3BTC pour un prix unitaire de 55.75€
4. Il vous envoie des rapports par email toutes les 1/6/12/24 heures sur l'évolution du cours du Bitcoin

Le bot sera bientôt compatible avec Bitcoin-central.net et de nouvelles fonctionnalités voient le jour assez fréquement (au gré de mon imagination et de la votre).
Le site est disponible en français, anglais et allemand pour l'instant.
Un compte d'essai gratuit est disponible à vie pour profiter de toutes les fonctionnalités.
Les prix des packs et des sms sont en BTC et varient en fonction du cours du marché.

Si vous avez des questions ou autre, je suis là pour y répondre  Wink

Ho and just one silly question, when a new address is generated, how to be sure it is unique ? Is it time based ? And what happens if 2 addresses are generated at the exact same time ?
It depends on how you generate the bitcoin address.  If you are using the current version of Bitcoin-Qt, then the address is generated from a random number.  Because the size of the number pool is so large, the odds of generating the same random number as someone else is astronomically small.  So small that it is for all practical purposes impossible.

Ok, and what about addresses generated over bitaddress.org script ?

cool site, ill consider using it. Tho there are a few problems

  • You have little to no trust
  • Bad english
  • No contact or support page on the site
  • Better Alerts/triggers

Those are a few of the problems I see. Feel free to PM me and I can help you out with the problems.

Thanks for your quick feedback. For the trust part, well, there is nothing more I can do, I know I'm new in the community so this is obvious I may be not trustable right now, so I will do my best to be trustable Smiley
For the bad English, as I said I'm French with only school English so I did my best, but if someone wants to help with translation, that would be awesome !
For the contact page, I added the email on the main page, I'm currently adding features to it, including a contact form.
And for the alerts and triggers, as I just said, I'm working on them to improve this and add new things to it !
