RE: KEEP YOUR ACCOUNT SECURE! MUST READ FOR NEW USERS! @fredrikaa was hacked, but now has his account back!
This is 100% upvote material. I haven't read anything this important here before. When you send from Poloniex for instance, it says put memo here. I did that. Hell, I think I even wrote a blog post about how you should do that. Gotta find it and try to write a warning or something, if I cant edit it.
What exactly should you put in the memo-field when you transfer steem from poloniex??
Just had to change my password myself. Can't believe I let my account be exposed like that.
No, you don't need to fill out the memo for poloniex either.
Both bittrex and poloniex have optional memo fields, so as long as you put the right account in, you will get your money. No memo needed.
Thanks. This is gold :)
Wtf!? @fredrikaa @illestbambi did I just fucked up? I just sent some Steem from bittrex myself before doing so I watched videos for two days and every fkn video I watched said to use your memo key ! So that’s what I used ! Even videos that were ppl who were fairly big on Steem and YouTube BUT when I go to my wallet all it shows is the name bittrex it doesn’t show my key like the picture above! Help lol am I good? Or do I need to change my password !? Geez WTF do they even have this memo box if it’s not needed
No worries if you posted your memo key. Make sure you never post your owners key or master password. I would however change my master password. Never enter any keys on the blockchain.
But it seems now maybe they changed the code? Bc you can’t go to the bittrex Steem account to their wallet and see the keys any more like In the picture above
