RE: DHF RFP: Centralized Hive Sign In Service With Password Recovery

in HiveDevs4 years ago

The account recovery mechanism seems largely obscure and full of difficulties. I haven't found solid, reliable documentation on it. So having robust and easy-to-use account recovery mechanisms seems like a hugely needed improvement. The vast majority of people will lose their keys, we can count on that.

I created a service to make account recovery more simple and automated.
You can read more about it in this post.

The existing account recovery is more of a last resort for advanced users sort of thing. Resetting of owner keys has always been esoteric to do in a trustless way.
