ATTENTION: We are now doing internal testing the Keychain system on https://steempeak.com
There's a bunch of other upgrades in the work as well... we'll keep some of those as a surprise.

KEYCHAIN PREPERATION

SteemConnect is the system we've used up until now and we'll continue to support it however we're really excited about keychain...
@asgarth has already had experience implimenting it into https://peakmonsters.com/
If you have the browser extension installed it will automatically know and use keychain... otherwise you'll log in just like normal using steemconnect.

So we think you should get ready by downloading the Chrome/Brave extension

They will be developing a Firefox extension soon.

WHY KEYCHAIN

IN SHORT

  1. Makes things even safer
  2. Very convenient to use

It allows websites to request that the extension sign and broadcast transactions for them, so that the user never has to enter their private keys into the site directly. This means that even with a malicious site operator, or a compromised server, your keys are safe. - @yabapmatt

Any plans for Ledger S support..? Maybe through Scatter?

Great news!

Excellent. Congrats on getting this implemented.

Hallelujah!

lovely new feature I discovered today: when clicking on a post it opens nicely on top of the feed.

YOU GUYS ROCK!

Actually this is a new feature just released. The post is not up yet ;)

I like surprises; also the tags next to the feed/individual blogs are great. Lovely work you are doing there! If at one point you include some kind of messaging, I will be rendered speechless ;)

I have been waiting for this ! Excellent guys. I just wish they would release a firefox extension for keychain.

Feature request: Sending/Receiving encrypted messages - support encrypting and decrypting memos with the memo key 🔑 ps. also looking forward to the keychain implementation as an alternative to steemconnect :)

I love @keychain: adding it to @steempeak is awesome, guys: well done!

So to clarify; when this has rolled out, I'll be able to set up a friend with an SM promo starter pack; tell him to download the steem keychain extension and he can not only play at steemmonsters.com and buy/sell at peakmonsters.com but he can also blog, comment, vote for posts and witnesses, and get verified on the SM discord etc, on steempeak.com without ever sending keys over the net or getting confused over which key to use for which transaction.
This is huge.
