RE: Please help me! If I have a STEEM brain key how could I convert it into password?
When an account is created through mining, all keys are the same. They would have to be manually updated. If you did not update them then you need to recover your account ASAP.
Yes, thank you @roadscape! I figured it out!
I was able to change
posting
key with thecli_wallet
command:update_account_auth_key account_name posting STM884pLqzhwjpS7MotzfH2iXppnoBtaXQvN8uLBt1t99eShvKgCK 1 true
The same command used to remove previouse
posting
key from the account - you have setupweight
to that key to zero:update_account_auth_key account_name posting STM6xDB2hRiH8rFT75oidwmk4hVKyvRbyrfHtJpmMKewEVDBkzG58 0 true
This is required to be able to login to steemit.com site with new
posting
key. You will not able to login on steemit.com if you have more then oneposting
keys.Please note: regarding Issue 172 if someone uses a string other than owner, active, or posting for the authority type argument of the update_account_auth_key CLI command, it will silently treat the authority type as if it was owner.
To change
memo
key useupdate_account_memo_key
instead.you possess global management theory?
