I haven't signed onto Toshidesk in a while and thought I would check out how things have been progressing.
I am prompted to enter my wallet address, both public key and private key. I'm assuming this is the MTR wallet. Why do you want my private key and how safe is it storing that info on a website?
Hello MisO69,
Thanks for checking back in!
We are making excellent progress each and everyday.
Thanks for your voicing your questions and concerns.
As Jc12345 was saying, we have a feature in place that will auto direct you to the payments page to renew your membership - when it expires.
There you will be able to choose to pay using the MTR wallet address you can attach to your account, or you would be able to pay with BTC, Credit, or Debit card - using Stripe.
Now lets talk about the wallet that we have currently implemented into the framework.
This wallet is powered by a web wallet service called CoinWallet. You can read more about their service at
www.CoinWallet.co .
Lets talk about how secure it is.
So if we look at the structure of the wallet, there isn't any wallet actually on the ToshiDesk servers.
The Public and Private Key that it asks you for aren't the keys of your desktop wallet, it's the keys for the web wallet. ( if you decide to use it )
For you to be able to get those keys you would have to first make an account ( Username & Pass ) on Coinwallet.co
You would then have to enable your 2FA ( Google Authentication or Authy ) to produce those keys on the CoinWallet Website.
Inputting those keys into the boxes you saw there would give you the ability to TIP (MTR) to other users for their trading advice and analysis, receive tips for your own content, and/or pay for your subscription inside ToshiDesk.
When you ask how safe it is, I would say it's about the safest we could make it given the time restraints to launch BETA asap.
We plan to make it even safer within the next week, by coding it to encrypt the keys as a hash after you input the keys. That way nobody will ever be able to know your keys, and if someone had the time to de-crypt the hash ( would take them years ) - they would then need to know your email, and pass to log into CoinWallet to move coins, on top of needing your 2FA device to do a thing.
There are even more security measures you can take part in through this service like ( email verification ) so before any coins can be moved, an email is sent to the email you choose, and a verification link would need to be clicked inside that email for coins to be released from CoinWallet.Co .
CoinWallet also kicks butt, because I applied for the POS Pool Features to be attached to MTR through the service. So if you were to store 50 coins on the web wallet, you would automatically be staking those 50 MTR at 10% a month. Not bad when you aren't using any power to do it, and every time you log in you automatically have a bigger MTR balance.
We also just implemented SSL into ToshiDesk, so that's extra notch of security for you as well.
If the above mentioned doesn't do it for you, by all means...you can pass on using that feature altogether, as we have Stripe implemented along with the plan to acquire other payment processors in the near future.
I have renewed your membership inside ToshiDesk, and encourage you to get in there and give it a look-see.
If you are that kinda person that likes to look for bugs or ways to improve, let me know...Been getting a lot of support in that department, and acting on those suggestions immediately. If you have nothing but great things to say, also voice those too...We'd love to hear it.
Any other further questions, comments, or concerns...just post a line here MisO69.
Thank you and we look forward to your support!
