Some features on Hive were removed over time, such as the "reset account" (which existed before the Hive blockchain was forked from the previous blockchain) where any Hive account that didn't have any transaction for 6 months can be taken over by its reset account. 🤓 The reasons were legal and technical. 🤯😅
!WEED !LOLZ
Oh bugger, that's a bit of a security red flag! I'm very glad about that option being removed, otherwise it could not be said that we truly own our assets. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

The owner of any Hive account was free to choose which its reset account is (and can be set to @null to essentially disable it). 🤔 However, it would have been hard to define what "user-initiated transaction" is, because a user may have already lost his or her Hive account keys but autovoting dapps (such as #HiveVote) still work on the account. 🤯😅

Ah, OK, so it was similar to what is called a recovery account today. Ah, yes, indeed. There are people that have died, and yet their accounts are still voting every day, as a part of curation trails. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

A recovery account of a Hive account is useful only within 30 days of changing the owner key of the Hive account and the user of that account still has access to its private owner key. 🤓 The recovery account can initiate a change of owner key, no matter how many times the Hive account publishes transactions or changes its private keys. 😏

I was aware of most of that, but I didn't know that it had to be within 30 days. I have two accounts of my own, that are recovery accounts for each other. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

I believe that the recovery account you choose for your Hive account(s) should be all of the following: 🤓

That's an ideal situation, and while all of those suggested points are very logical and certainly do make sense, I have nobody that would fit those parameters, so I do it myself, like I do with many, or even most things. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

I think that you should use the Hive account of the Hive frontend that you use the most (which is probably #Ecency) as your recovery account. 🤔🤓
