RE: Seablue Journal: At the crypto coal face with Openbazaar.

What I recently found out about EOS is that if you do much transacting at all, it isn't free.

I went to stake my HORUS tokens using smart contracts and was getting an error. Long story short... I didn't have enough RAM to transact and I had to purchase RAM.

This is exactly the reason I hate ETH, and it really watered down my enthusiasm for EOS. We shall see if it shakes out.

It is definitely a trial working through some problems on EOS. I got brave over the weekend and decided to explore creating new key pairs and changing the permissions on accounts.

God forbid I should experiment on my account that has all my EOS and airdrops in. The thought of losing it all by making some small error along the way was too scary.

I created my third account on EOS and from the get go, I generated two new key pairs. One was going to be the new owner key and the other was going to be the new active key.

I've only just realized that I should be using an active key that is different from my owner key for things like Scatter and MEET.ONE and Greymass.

Be damned if I'm going to change my keys on my main accounts though without experience. So I spent a few hours playing around with that on the weekend. I still haven't changed the keys on my two main accounts. As my confidence grows I'll do that. I can see myself creating a whole number of accounts now. I'm wondering how to obfuscate the trail. I think I need to use a service that creates the account for me, rather than creating them myself.
