Can someone tell me if there is a way to login/logout of web wallet? It just opens with my addresses listed already. I guess i have to put in a password to achieve that. With most web wallet i have seen that they ask you for a password to start with & generally generate & recreate the keys from your password everytime. I think this should be default behavior of our web wallet as well.
"NOTE: You should only use ONE wallet at a time with a given seed, the webwallet or dcrwallet, not both!" Why not both?
I don't understand this well either, but here's what ceejep (developer) said earlier in the thread. My question was, what qualifies as "creating transactions"? And what can go wrong, worst case? The wallets becoming confused is still a little too vague, I think.
You can use two or more wallets provided they are with different addresses. As it is with btc. You should not use the same seeds (same address) in different wallets because it can cause problems.
Think of it like this: Wallet A: Wallet is at address #15 Wallet B: Wallet is at address #12 So Wallet B won't know about anything going on with addresses #13, #14, and #15. For example, let's say you ask Wallet A for a new address, you're going to get address #16, but if you ask Wallet B for a new address you're going to get address #13 and that address has already been used by Wallet A.
That makes sense, but does that really matter if you aren't particularly concerned with avoiding address reuse? BTW, are you aware of any info or a thread about simultaneous PoW and PoS mining on the same machine? Seems just a task of assigning listen ports and router forwarding, with perhaps use of the externalip dcrd option. I need to read more before launch.
Well, it also means that Wallet B won't have the right balance because it doesn't know about the addresses it hasn't generated yet, so any transactions involving them aren't recognized as belonging to it. When you request a new address, the wallet will assume it's an unused address and as such it won't search for transactions before the most recent block height either. As you can imagine, doing so would be incredibly time consuming as the chain gets larger because it would have to rescan the entire chain again if it can't make that assumption. Yes, you can do PoW and PoS on the same machine if you want.
I know that sound as easy question but i can't find a solution! in the web wallet were is the logout option?
Also makes sense, but I think I was getting at whether there would be any dire consequences like hopelessly corrupting you're wallets. Guess not. Re: PoW+PoS on same machine, it occurred to me that I'm probably over thinking this. Only one instance of each dcrd/dcrwallet would be needed since `enablestakemining` etc. are dcrwallet options, and miningaddr is for dcrd. And one dcrd can handle cgminer and dcrwallet both mining away I'm guessing.
You're not really logged in anywhere. All personal data is client side and uses HTML5 local storage. It's not like you're creating a wallet or account on a remote website. Right, well it depends on what you mean by "corrupting". You can always recover by starting over from the seed, so from that perspective it's never hopeless (unless you lose your seed!). However, you can't really recover from the situation of the balances being wrong without starting over from the seed, so from that perspective your balance is forever corrupted until you reset from the seed. For those of us who understand what's going on, it's not that big of a deal, but most users don't have any idea how the fundamentals work and from their perspective it'll just look like they're missing money. Hence, in general it's better for most people to simply stick with a single wallet. Yep, you're absolutely correct regarding the PoW+PoS!
So my wallet seed is stored in the two cookies with an html5 encryption? because if i do a transaction the wallet didn't ask for a psw so probably is stored in the cookies...and if i protect also with the psw the seed (the one in the creation process) did the wallet ask for that psw in transcation out? thanks!!
Sorry Dave my last one i promess! If i want to setup my mainnet webwallet (with airdrop seed ) is better to wait the mainnet launch or i can start setup colors option etc? Thanks!
I don't see any problem with creating it now. It can't possibly change at this point. Yes, deleting all local storage, cache, etc in the browser will definitely wipe out the web wallet. Also, as the disclaimers say, the wallet only exists locally so the devs/Company 0 are NOT able to retrieve it for you. They simply do not have access to your seed / private keys. That is why it's imperative you keep the seed around to restore.
