Well, that's certainly one way to do it. 😁 πŸ™ πŸ’š ✨ πŸ€™

What do you think about the reset account that used to be changeable from @null from the blockchain where Hive emerged? πŸ€” If you haven't heard about it, the reset account basically can reset any private key of a Hive account. πŸ€―πŸ€“

I've never heard that term. I do know about recovery accounts, however. 😁 πŸ™ πŸ’š ✨ πŸ€™

People on Hive (even very active ones) still often confuse reset account with recovery account, like what I noticed on my comment 4 years ago. 🀯 If reset accounts didn't exist on Hive or on the blockchain where Hive emerged from, then people would have easily and accurately interchanged reset accounts with recovery accounts !INDEED. πŸ€“

Reset accounts can no longer be changed when Hive emerged from the previous blockchain, and it is set to @null by default. 🀯 They were supposed to act as the account that can reset the private keys of a Hive account, even if the keys weren't recently changed. πŸ€“ Reset accounts were disabled because of some challenges (both technical and legal) mentioned by some Hive Witnesses and their supporters. 🀯

Anyway, I wonder if the them you are referring to are the Hive reset accounts or this conversation itself (or both). πŸ€―πŸ˜…

OK, thanks for the explanation. So they're like the predecessor to recovery accounts.

The first option. πŸ˜πŸ™πŸ’šβœ¨πŸ€™
