RE: What kind of powerdown option would you prefer?

in Hive Polls5 months ago

Well this would give a potential hacker more after 3 weeks powerdown before recovery expiration than the current version does but I get your idea behind it, a growing powerdown amount over time.

Sort:  

Then your option sounds better. Is there a way to validate, that the account is not hacked and provide a growing power down option ?

And coming to account recovery, can we recover an account that is hacked ?

Yes, getting hacked usually means key changes occur. If hacker gains control of your keys he will use them to change the keys so you can't cancel a powerdown with the same keys. So you could say if no key change has occurred in 1 month you could allow people to unstake faster.

Recovery only works with hacked accounts, it won't work if you've lost your keys. You still need the original keys to change them back to a new set of keys within 30 days while being in contact with your recovery account trustee.
