RE: On Sharing Keys and Passwords with SteemConnect: How Safe Is It?

in #steemconnect6 years ago (edited)

Hmm, but steeemconnect wants to have your master key, not just your posting key...
So who is running Steemconnect.com ?
They don´t even have an impressum ( about us) on their website... Why should I trust them with my master keys ???

Hi @overunitydotcom,

They don't store the keys that you enter in steemconnect. Also, you'll have the option of either the active key or the owner key (master password). I always use active key. Never use the owner key as much as possible.

Steemconnect was developed by the busy.org team (the team behind https://busy.org). They've been endorsed specifically by the Steemit team to develop it.

Just to let you know, I've used Steemconnect countless times and have not encountered any issue so far. So I'm reasonably confident in it now.

Can I really also use just the posting key when signing in into Steemconnect ?
I tried this , but they wanted always to have the active key... I would be more comfortable to use it, if I just only could use the posting key only...
Why is that not sufficient ?
