RE: A hole in the Blockchain: Steemconnect? (Please take the time it is important)

in #steemit7 years ago

I'd be very surprised if SteemConnect doesn't keep logs which can identify/prove who's responsible for this (that's presumably why 3rd party app developers have to make separate accounts that we don't 'own'). Of course, since it's not in consensus, we'd have to trust their integrity, but we're doing that in using SC enabled apps anyway.

Sort:  

As the platform grows exponentially, are you willing to trust integrity? I am not, that is why the inegrity of the blockchain is of paramount importance as it means I can trust without having a relationship with operators.

I think this is a very difficult dilemma for the community. Whether to promote SteemConnect as the best way to integrate 3rd party apps or trust users to handle their own key security appropriately. I really see both sides of this.

I wonder what storage overhead (as percentage) it would add to include which account with posting authority actually initiated the blockchain transaction?
