Re: Introducing Hive Web, a mobile web wallet supporting Litecoin and Bitcoin!

How would you address the concerns about Hive Web as stated on bitcoin.org?

https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet


If you compare all the web wallets listed you can see that they all share the "centralized" and "remote app" bullet points. Yes, we could do something about it but the solution is not technically trivial, so I don't have a good answer for you, at least speaking for the short term. As for "vulnerable environment", we could add two-factor auth. The reason why it's not there is because we started off as a mobile web app - 2FA doesn't add much to security if one uses the app from their mobile browser.

Do I only need my wallet seed (12 words) to recover my funds (and addresses; there is currently one address in the Hive wallet but I guess more will be added) from 3rd party sources, or do I need the actual address or addresses as well?

You only need the 12-word passphrase to recover your funds. You can learn more about passphrase, PIN and addresses here: https://github.com/hivewallet/hive-js/wiki/Hive-Web-FAQ

Re: Someone please tell me this isn't how transactions always work....

It seems to me that 3 solutions are proposed so far: 1. instead of a single output, break up the change output into multiple outputs of small amounts 2. allow user to specify multiple destination addresses in a single transaction 3. allow using unconfirmed outputs

3. is unsafe, as discussed above

1. only solves the problem partially -- it is still a problem when one spends the first funding transaction followed by creating another transaction immediately. In addition, setting the small amount threshold is a guessing work -- if the threshold is too big as relative to what the user normally keeps & spends, the same problem still exists. If it is too small user will end up paying additional fees because of the transaction size. I thought of this solution before, but in the end I thought to myself this would be the classic case of "software trying to be smart but ends up screwing with you and makes you hate technology"

Solution 2. seems like the only sensible solution to me, but it sure has UX implications for Hive (advanced send?). It does address OP's particular use case if he knows in advance that he wants to send x amount to addr1 and y amount to addr2, and decides to do it in a single transaction. Also it doesn't really address the "send one transaction followed by another" problem.

Keep the ideas coming. If we end up coming up with a good solution, I'm happy to implement it Smiley

iPhone 5 iOS 7.1.1, Chrome App, latest version as of now.

PC, Chrome. Latest version as of now.

Both of them did not update, even though there were 6 confs (confirmed in separate tab on PC in Chrome via blockchain.info)

The Circle spinny icon in the upper right did not update the balance when tapped/clicked. I have to hit the refresh button on chrome and type in my PIN.

I've filed a ticket here: https://github.com/hivewallet/hive-js/issues/130 Thanks for reporting!

I click the refresh circle icon... no balance. I close the browser, re-open it... now the balance shows.

What's your browser & version?

Zero-conf should be "pending" and 1 conf should be a timestamp and balance update, imo.

Indeed: https://github.com/hivewallet/hive-js/issues/121

I'm gonna wait til you guys get kinks worked out here, I guess...

Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate your patience. Cheers man Smiley

Side note, there's an in-app support button on the bottom of the drawer. Just another bug report channel in case you haven't noticed Smiley

Removed the app all4btc from Hive App Registry until we hear back from the all4btc team regarding their current API status.
