RE: Introducing SteemReply - Stay in touch with your Steem network

in #steemreply6 years ago

I am very interested in this @arcange but doesn't Steem Keychain also ask for our creditenials?

Sort:  

Of course Keychain will ask for your credentials, but:

  1. the extension code runs locally on your browser. It does not rely on an internet connection or a 3rd party service.
  2. the provided keys are encrypted and stored locally. They never leave your computer. They are used locally to sign transactions.
  3. keychain code is auditable, either on github and even locally after you have installed the extension. It's clear text Javascript.

It's a like a password manager, except that not all password manager code are auditable.

Ah.. thank you @arcange I never knew that difference.

Is it possible to make a mobile version of Key chain?

I would love to use it but most of my activity is via Mobile Devices.

Is it possible to make a mobile version of Key chain?

I would like to, but the main problem is that mainstream browsers on mobile devices do not allow to install extensions like Keychain 😢
