Hi Everyone,
My Main account @instatrashed has been inactive for a while becasue I haven't been able to login. Somehow all of the keys and passwords that I have for the accounts seem to be for this account, my secondary. :(
I love Steemit and really believe in this platform and it hurts me to be locked out of an account I enjoyed posting to so much.
I am offering a 25 Steem Reward to anyone who can help me get into my account even if it is by getting someone at Steem to help me. I can prove this account is mine and have posted many personal photos that I can verify are still on my phone, my Google Drive, my instagram account and Reddit account are all @instatrashed. Please please please can anyone help me or point me in the right direction.
This post has all my pictures and an introduction of myself. - https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@instatrashed/hey-steemit-my-name-is-rich-aka-instatrashed-and-i-am-finally-introducting-myself-after-months-of-posting
I love this platform. Hoping someone can please help me. :( <3
It's impossible to recover a lost password, you're the only person who had access to it, and it's not saved anywhere else. If you lose it, you lose the account access permanently. The only way is to reverse and bruteforce it, but that can take eternity. I suggest you search your computer, maybe you have the information saved somewhere. Or if you have a password manager in your browser, it might have the login+password.
I'll pass your post onto Steemit Inc.
Hopefully can gt some answer for ya. :)
I dont think they make it easy unfortnately.
On the password page...
The first rule of Steemit is: Do not lose your password.
The second rule of Steemit is: Do not lose your password.
The third rule of Steemit is: We cannot recover your password.
The fourth rule: If you can remember the password, it's not secure.
The fifth rule: Use only randomly-generated passwords.
The sixth rule: Do not tell anyone your password.
The seventh rule: Always back up your password.
They want you to make a password you can't remember but won't recover it if you forget or miss place it.
It's a feature, not a bug. :-)
You really don't want to make it easy for someone who don't have a password for account to access that account. You own an account if you have an Owner Key for account. If you don't then you don't.
Good Luck though! Hopefully you have stored it somewhere.
Try to use recovery password function at steemit.com site if you can prove that it's your account maybe steemit inc will help you.

Recovery works in the case of hacked or changed password within 30 days. This doesn't apply to this case of a lost password.
Ohh I see they are ask you to input last password which you used to enter in steemit.com. Thank you that corrected me.

If you lost your Master Password / Keys, there's no way to recover.
The only chance for you is if you actually have it somewhere on your computer, smartphone, saved in a browser, password manager, etc.
