A fun little memory about blockchain.info

They used to use random.org to source the randomness when generating private keys. However they made their requests over http, not https (which is bad enough in its own right). BUT.... funnier still is that for an entire year the website would only respond to requests made over http with something along the lines of "Stop using http!" and this same text was used as a source of "randomness" for them for an entire year.

Hilarious!

Recently they have started making you choose between bitcoin and bcash when querying their database.

Bcash is the first option of course.

Why does every company Roger invests in have to turn to shit?
