The idea for this show was born from my recent "hack adventures" on my personal "level", but I'm glad that we did it... We didn't have a big crowd in the show, but we did have some experienced part...

@gadrian: Zypto changed it to Active Key. Haven't used it yet, but read their announcement. Regarding account recovery, I documented the process back on the other chain. I'm hesitant to link that post, as it refers to tools from back then and to that chain, but the process is the same, only using something like PeakD, and probably Ecency. @incublus is correct. Here's how the process works, quoted from my post from back then: A. Contact your recovery account and send him/her a NEW public owner key for the account which needs to be recovered. B. The recovery account owner must verify in a way that you are who you say you are, the real account owner. After (s)he does that, C. The recovery account initiates an account recovery request, using your username and the new public owner key you provided. D. You go ahead with the account recovery on your end, by using a recent public owner key. You'll then be asked the recent private owner key and then your new private owner key to finally confirm it. Regarding step A, that is done by generating a NEW master password (at the front end level, WITHOUT creating a new account). I think I saw PeakD can do that, but haven't looked into that in a long time.
@incublus: Even though I couldn't stay long, it was a great show, man. Wallet security is extremely important for all of us. I hope everyone realizes this because once you show weakness, there's no turning back.
@duskobgd: Thank you for tagging me 🙂 I've been checking for days to see if you posted this recap, so I could listen to what you were talking about. I'm getting close to a goal, so it's time to tackle securing my account 🙂
@davideownzall: Well just yesterday my sister in law got bank scammed, they phoned here with the exact same number of the bank appearing on the phone, asking for a bank transfer to prevent a scam, she fell for it but later managed to smell the scam and block it... I mean now scammers can make the phone number they want appear on your phone
@jfang003: It was a nice show, but man that Hive recovery account seems like a confusing topic. There are just too many scams out there, and you can never be too safe.
@forkyishere: I didn't watch all of it, but from the bits I did listen to, I can say there is a lot of confusion about what the recovery account can do and how it works... this leaves me with some ideas for a post. Will try to come back to this @ph1102 (or if you want me to review anything you produce, let me know). Recall me if I forget about it. I might not be able to do it before going to HiveFest, but this is actually something I should enjoy trying to clarify.
@les90: I can't join the show earlier but i jupm into the server before 30 minutes it ended and i enjoyed listening to you guys as the topic was interesting.... My recovery account is dbuzz and i know the dbuzz server is dead now as we can't connect to chrisrice and i was thinking of changing my recovery account.... !PIZZA
@videoaddiction: It clearly shows that regardless of your tech skills, you can still be tricked by a scam.
@asuncion1127: Thanks for sharing this. Now a days hackers are really experts in social media, so we really need to be careful at all times.
