How would this work?
Discussion
Haven’t explored this much yet, but I think the idea is:
- Key A signs a message saying “key B is allowed to post as me for X amount of time”
- Key B can be used on behalf of key A until the delegation expires
- Key A never needs to be entered into a website
- When delegation expires, key A can delegate to key C etc.
I think I saw the SeedSigner guys thinking of impelmenting it.
That sounds brilliant. Would it be possible for Key A to remove the delegation to Key B at anytime? This could mitigate all risks in the event Key B gets compromised without having to wait for the delegation time frame to expire.
