The BitShares Hosted Web Wallet is ready...

[cass]

jcalfee1 the page looks awesome!
just fyi - accessing the page on my galaxy tab 3 gives me an https/ssl error:
NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID

I guess it has to do with the bitshares.org server and not the web wallet itself ...
@cass is trying to fix this as I know....

nope each subdomain is pointing to another VPS
So guess each of the project behind have to get ssl secured on there own..
Sure its a wildcard SSL cert ... but i can just configure .org vps

I'm getting an A now .. Valentine gave me some certs and I added some configuration to the server..

-thanks... Let me know if you see anything else.

great yup it was caused  due missing additona certs.. great it works now!

Wow amazing job! I'm without a computer at the moment but I was able use my Galaxy S3 mobile to access the web wallet and register via the faucet. Only took 2 minutes! I am massively impressed and can finally begin recommending BitShares to friends once its out of beta. Now the marketing teams really have something to promote!!

This is by far the easiest way to introduce someone to BitShares.

Well done!

Yeah but it would be even better if you could use the site without creating an account. Hardcore bitcoin maximalists will look at the create account pages and see that as an excuse to close it and not bother to look at the exchange.

Also how can we be certain that the server hosting the wallet has not been hacked? Maybe we could have a robohash or something of all the site's html & js.

I agree, I would love to open it up.  It seems like low-hanging fruit.  Keep in mind, we need to make sure it is reliable before getting even more traffic.  I'm going to like this a lot more when it uses multiple servers....

I plan to package it as a plug-in so it can be versioned.. Chrome makes this easy so I would not have to sacrifice another feature to do it.  Firefox would be good too but I'm not sure if they support web site plugins yet.  A plugin will help protect private keys from a hacked server.  There is still a matter of server security where a hacked server could re-direct funds. 

A blockchain withdraw limit could help.  We could add a cold wallet creator and bring the hot wallet to the web.  That might be the more practical way to do it.  I know we do not support withdraw limits yet though.

That doesn't solve anything. You need to be sure that the code you have previously downloaded and trusted is not automatically replaced without your knowledge. I think something like a Chrome extension could help with this. Personally, I prefer the approach where an executable is downloaded and used like Nathan's Qt lite wallet, even if the executable is just a web container for the HTML/JS-based web wallet.

Shouldn't be a logout button somewhere?

It is called "lock" (upper right)

Nice!    I was able to register a new account as well as send and receive funds without any problems.  It's not quite as fast as the full client but damn fast!   
Question- whys the transaction fee set to 1+ BTS by default?

The default network fee now is .5 BTS.  So, I simply split it: .5 network fee and .5 for business expenses...

If you consider blockchain downloading / processing / replaying, this is MUCH faster than the full client.

Oh absolutely!  I just meant confirmation speed... and even then it's still wicked-fast.
