RE: Splinterlands' Plans for the Upcoming Hive Fork
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
What if one user creates account ABC on Steem blockchain and joins Splinterlands, and another user creates account ABC (the same name) on Hive blockchain. And then Splinterlands moves to Hive?

This was my concern, too.
When new players sign up for the game after the date of the fork, we plan to create their account on both the Steem and Hive blockchains so that they will be able to use and interact on both chains outside of the game using the same account name and keys.
Doesn't help if they create their account another way. We almost need the front ends to check that any account buying a card, pack, orb etc has the same public posting key on both chains, before creating the transaction.
I really really really don't want my accounts on both chains to have the same keys. I understand why they're starting off that way but everyone's first priority after the fork ought to be changing one set.
Maybe they'll need to deny transactions for accounts that are too young and weren't made via splinterlands.io
I think I'd prefer to see a day or two of downtime, then a clean move.
I don't see any reason not to develop a real solution for allowing accounts on Steem to indicate which account on any new chain they should be linked to.
We're right at the edge of my technical comprehension at this point.
I'm just glad Yaba's a wizard.
For that matter what if someone creates account BCD on Hive and then someone else creates it on Steem and wants to join the game?
