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. πππβ¨π€

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). π€ 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. π€―π

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. π π π β¨ π€

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. π€ 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. π

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. π π π β¨ π€

I believe that the recovery account you choose for your Hive account(s) should be all of the following: π€
- not your own Hive account (because all the Hive accounts on your devices might be compromised at the same time)
- someone trustworthy (both in terms of character and technical skill)
- someone you can call on quickly when you need to recover your Hive account(s)

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. π π π β¨ π€

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. π€π€

How would that work? How exactly would you get in touch with them to explain the situation, and to ask them to initiate a recovery? Discord, or tagging them in a post, maybe? π π π β¨ π€
