Ok... noob question:
so now, we need our Hive on the official Hive wallet on the blockchain to retain our voting power...
With the Ledger integration, would the Hive still stay linked to our same account and retain the same voting power, or be on a totally different address?
Of course I am not @netuoso, and I am not an expert in any way, but the way I believe this will work is, that your owner and active key (probably not the posting key, because using the ledger at least a dozen times a day for voting and commenting seems very inconvenient) will be stored on the hardware wallet, and only there.
If you want to change your keys or transfer Hive or Power Up/Down et cetera, you'll need to confirm that operation with your hardware wallet. The Hive will still be on your account, just the keys will be stored in a different manner. (At least that's what I believe)
Yes, that's right. The keys will be derived from the 24-word recovery seed using BIP44 derivation path (I think).
I used to work on this last year (which was paused as I was busy with other stuff) but then I did not know someone worked on it already a few months ago until today. Now that project of mine is obviously dead for good 😅
Awesome. 😎
