Account recovery/ stake any address

Recommended Posts

I was responding in another thread about this and I was personally thinking as well. If we get hacked or somehow lose access of our account then only way for us to prove the ownership is to use a wallet address, sign it with a message.

It's similar to "stake your Bitcoin address" in bitcoinTalk but since this forum is not only about Bitcoin but about all crypto, I will suggest everyone to sign any address (btc, eth anything) and stake it here. 

 

I am going to do mine once I have my computer access.

 

Thank you.

Edit: The proper posting format>>>

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I think when we post the signed message we need to use the code tag so that others do not find it hard to verify. Here is how you do that:

I hope this helps.

Good idea for improving security, I will also stake my address when I generate it.

On BitcoinTalk similar thread helped a lot of users to prove their ownership of accounts, when they got hacked.

I advise everyone with account here to sign their address also.

Agreed with you but you should be aware of that email can also be compromised. However, considering that the forum is young yet, chance is no one will hack the forum account, although we have to account the upcoming reward of 1 BTC and some others, hacker may attack the highest posters. It would certainly be better to stake an address to prove the ownership later.

Correct. Since there will be no KYC and stuffs so it will be very hard to find the legit owner if there are no such thing in case of a compromised account.

You were added few new line. So initially it was showing wrong signature however when I got rid of the new lines I was able to verify it successfully.

Here is the right one:

It was because I just copy pasted here. As per the forum default setting, it has created some more spaces which I didn't notice.

Because email can be hacked too. Many accounts on other crypto forum are hacked because email expired and hacker simple created new email with the same characters, changed password on account and that is it. They can't really do that with bitcoin address, staking one is good way to prove ownership.

Exactly, I think for new crypto space users (in forums) it's hard to understand but us who has experience with other forums we know the deal.

This is very secure way to prove ownership of an account by staying anonymous.

Of course, I never got hacked but I have seen what torture other users who have been hacked experienced. Your address is like fingerprint.

I want to add that whenever someone stake address, another user should quote that message, just in case of hacking, hacker could edit post but they can't edit quotation.

We are doing that already however I forgot to mention it in the OP. Just now added it. Thanks for the information. Let's hope we can keep our accounts safe here.

I think this is not necessary to do now, 
though we have a double security on this.

1 we have the email address which is used on signing up an account, (mine is secured with double auth)

We also have our password on this forum, what we need to do is to be careful and make sure that our account information is safe.

 

Though, i like the IDEA but not gonna do now!

Not a bad idea... and maybe it will be needed in future,

and I will consider to also stake my bitcoin address.

Maybe moderators can add some other profile protection measures

Not if the forum software has 2FA feature if it has then enabling it will help a lot. This was members can secure their accounts however if the database hacks then the only way to prove your account is the signed address.

google 2fa would be enough for me, but i think this is a good initiative, because we are in the crypto world, why not use it as a proof. Especially if we are getting wallets in here.

All the hacked exchanges had 2FA, and people used to enable it. Still people claim their account got hacked. 2FA certainly a good option but is not secured as we think it. It's always better if we use blockchain technology.

We have talked about it already in the few posts above. I would suggest to stake the address if you want to or leave the thread for the purpose it was made 😊

Here can also be two-factor authentification like Google Authentication like some other forums also do.  This also can secure our account some.  Here in addition to Google Authentication include email and mobile (for withdrawals).

 

But I don't think hacker will be able to link our account to his yobit account and able to withdraw even if he gets access to our cryptotalk account, as our cryptotalk account is linked to our own yobit account.

You can not be so certain. It's not about the money we are talking about, it the account ownership to prove - that is what we are talking about.

If I have a bitcoin singed message then I can always sign a message and prove that this is my account despite having a hack or not.

Yes I agree we need something like that here, this forum will be huge in the future and it's better to laid this out this early for members and for those who will come in, you have my vote on this one.

Well consider the stake your address with a sign message so that you can restore your account in the future in case you lose it.

I like that, 2FA can give us an extra security layer, it will be good if they add this here in the future, let's recommend to the admin.

I think this is time for you to really secure your account. Imagine if anything goes wrong then how are you going to recover? How are you going to prove that it is you from other account?

i will consider this when my rank has increase a bit but for now i will focus on building my account,  most members in btt are doing it for further protection.

I think those of us who has good potential to win the contest should do it instead of waiting for a disaster. In fact I would say those with significant post number also do the same. You guys have done a lot of works for your accounts and of course you do not want to risk it.

but to me i feel the account in this forum is not of much value compare to those in bitcoin talk,

I really hope some day this forum member will also feel that the account are valuable as much as bitcoin talk. Yeah it's right that we still could not be able to build this high demand of the accounts except may be those already have high posts and running for contests.

We never know may be after 2 years from now we will have this topic a lot of staked address 😊

once we start having campaigns like that here then sure the acct here will also have such value.

Big pictures. 

I will still say some of the members are failing to see big picture of this forum. Still ranking up is very easy since we have just started. Some members still have doubts that if we really can stay long term?

I have taken a leap of faith and my goal is to be the first VIP in here. Obviously be then we will see some good projects who will try to get exposure for their business and high ranked members will get priority.

Imagine someone made it to post 2k posts and one day they discovered they can not login for some reason. They have no other way to prove that they are were the real owner.

    • Майнер криптовалюты Hut 8 Corp опубликовал отчет о своих результатах за последние шесть месяцев. Согласно пресс-релизу компании , Hut 8 увеличила выручку до $60,6 млн за шесть месяцев, закончившихся 31 декабря 2023 года. Основные показатели финансовой отчетности Hut 8 включают увеличение выручки на 32% и значительное увеличение чистой прибыли до $6,2 млн по сравнению с к предыдущему чистому убытку. Стоимость майнинга биткойнов ( BTC ) составила 18 815 долларов США, и за этот период компания добыла 1244 биткойна. Стоимость энергии Hut 8 за МВтч составила 44,52 доллара США, что отражает эффективность управления затратами на электроэнергию. Биткойн укрепляет активы Hut 8 Сила баланса компании очевидна в ее активах в биткойнах : по состоянию на 31 декабря 2023 года 9 195 биткойнов оценивались примерно в 388,1 миллиона долларов. Эта база активов обеспечивает Hut 8 значительную рыночную стоимость и потенциал для будущих доходов. Биткойн демонстрирует устойчивый рост с начала года после того, как спотовые биткойн- ETF в США привлекли в биткойн институциональных и розничных инвесторов. С начала года первая и до сих пор лидирующая криптовалюта в мире подорожала на 60%, а в начале марта BTC обновил свой исторический максимум, поднявшись выше $70 000. Кроме того, рыночная капитализация Биткойна превысила 1,4 триллиона долларов, что сделало самую ценную криптовалюту восьмым по величине активом в мире, обогнав серебро.
