RE: SteemWallet update v1.1.2 - supporting the steem:// uri-spec for signing & broadcasting many Steem chain operations without exposing your keys

in #utopian-io6 years ago

Hey Roeland!

So am I right in thinking that you can use the Steem Wallet app to access all of the apps on the 'chain without the need for a Steemit account first?

Hi CG,

SteemWallet core functionality was always being a wallet: storing your private keys, encrypted with a vault-password, to be used to send Steem & SBD.

Now since the app already securely stores your active key, I've added the possibility to sign & broadcast any other (active key) Steem related "blockchain operation".

SteemWallet keeps on focussing on this part of the chain and not so much on the content creation / consumption. Ill leave that to all those other great interfaces out there.

Anyone can use the SteemWallet app to monitor any account's Steem / SBD holdings and recent transactions. If one wants to send Steem or broadcast other actions, one should really use a Steem account for that. Those can actually be registered through an in-app purchase in the app!
