RE: Third Update to July 14th Security Announcement - Account Recovery Begins

in #steemit8 years ago

I went through the process but can't login via the Owner keys to change my passwords...Is that intentional?

Sort:  

Yep! You must login with your posting key first and then go to permissions page and click to "change password" then they will ask for owner key if you want to change it.... They just want to be sure nobody logged in with owner key and are browsing steemit's content! And that is fabulous!

I'm somewhat confused, I restored my account and logged in with the new 32+ char password, but all I see in the permisions tab is this...

Posting Key ===>>> Show Private Key
Active Key ===>>> Login to Show Private Key
Owner Key ===>>> absolutly nothing!!!

am I supposed to login again(second time) with the new 32 chars key?

and most important of all, do I need to change the owner, active and posting keys or the restore function did this for me already?

Thanks

All keys changed with the restore function. Next time login with the posting key for extra security!
