Lost my Steemit Password.. am I Screwed??
I'm logged in on my phone and can still make posts, but I tried to add a profile picture and fill out the about section and was presented w/ a password request.... unfortunately I don't think I have it, I seem to remember possibly screenshotting it but I didn't save it elsewhere
So for my techies out there, doesn't the fact that I'm logged in on mobile chrome browser present any possible way to recover it? Or is the cookie not useful at all for recovering my password..?
I would assume that I would need the password for withdrawing as well?
Is it time to make a new account and not be sucks a dummy? Can I delete this account and be able to make a new one w this username or is my username also trapped???
Pretty bummed. Total newb move on my part.
Anybody got any input on this one???
That sucks, I have a feeling the same will happen to me. I really should of saved my password haha.
@flatearthvegan you might want to open another account also if you lost your password. Why add more monetary value to your current account if you can not reap it's benefits. If you do make another account, do write down the password multiple times and keep in your different safe places.
I think I might have to do that. Thanks for the tip and good luck on your account issues!
If you did do a screen shot it might be in your computer somewhere. I checked your wallet and it doesn't seem like you will lose much. If you can't find it, I would make another account as fast as possible. It may take awhile to get in. Once in, write down your password multiple times on paper and store it in your different safe places. It is in the white paper that there is no way to get the password from them once a password is lost. I would not post too much anymore on this account as if you did lose the password for sure you lose it's monetary value.
About your Steemit name everything is in the blockchain. You might have a similar name by adding a number or another letter on the end of your current name.
I went into settings: permissions and it shows a bunch of keys, will those help me at all?
Owner key, posting, active, memo etc?
They are keys that you can use, but they are not the password that you will need to take it's monetary value.
Maybe you can keep your account, cause you never know if you will find your password. I would at lease have two accounts if I were in your position. It won't hurt to have two accounts.
Once you get your new account you can start all over again. If you were to start again I would have more posts than followers and I would have more followers than following.
You don't really want follow for follow. Just follow those who's content you really like and can grow from. Concentrate on putting out as much good content as you can out there and your reputation will grow. Do this and your monetary value will rise.
