RE: Vessel Update v0.4.2 - Exchanges / Auths / CLI prep

in HiveDevs4 years ago

A lot of the work for Hive integration with Ledger hardware wallet has been done which is a big project that Vessel will play a very important role in.

Woah! Hardware wallet support has been on my wishlist since I first got a Steem account. Is the idea that the owner key would live on the device, with the ability to export the posting, active, and memo keys?

Sort:  

User will be able to configure any of their keys to be on the Ledger, or they can optionally configure a key that isnt on the Ledger.

So yeah I imagine owner key at least and maybe active key would be good living on Ledger. Posting/memo key maybe safe to be in a password manager like Lastpass.

Cool! That design makes sense to me.

Do you anticipate other wallets besides Vessel will be able to use the hardware wallet? Hive Keychain support would be convenient.

Posting/memo key maybe safe to be in a password manager like Lastpass.

Nice. BTW I've switched from Lastpass to Bitwarden. Bitwarden is open source and has a nicer interface and design.

Yeah there are already javascript libraries to interact with ledger so I am sure Keychain and others could adapt when it is working.

Is there a code repository where I can follow the progress here? Is https://github.com/netuoso/vessel the right place?
