RE: Accidental Transfer of $150,000+ in STEEM Reveals Web of Connected Accounts
Wow, ok, thanks for the explanation. That is still a valid cause for concern! In other news, I attempted to create a secondary account that wouldn't be connected to my personal name for some other concepts I have in my head... I was unable to complete account creation after being approved and got the following error:
Couldn't create account. Server returned the following error:
Only one Steem account per user is allowed in order to prevent abuse
I have no abusive intentions. Is there a way around this?
The abuse referenced is moreso because of the STEEM that is given to each new account. Currently Steemit pays the cost, so this is to prevent users from creating new accounts just to game the system and take the STEEM. The ethical way to do this is to create an account and pay the creation fee yourself (currently 6 STEEM). I wrote a post on it. You can find that here.
Thanks for the info! Great post, as well.
