Wesleyh, I understand your client is going to be the official client that will replace NRS at nxtcrypto.org this week.
About passwords: It might be included already, but it is obvious we need something like a series of prompts to make sure new users use a long password.
And simple install instructions at the nxtcrypto.org download location.
What has to be done to make this happen? Are plans in place to achieve this over the next few days?
Could something like this to know-how to generate the password be interesting?I think it is secure and makes it comfortable to have huge passwords without having to remember it or copy it from somewhere.And if it is possible,those generated passwords,to be a minimum of 60 digits or whatever. I am not a programmer so i dont know what could be done.
Maybe if it had it optional,it could be a nice feature.
I found this app,from a tweet of Antonopoulos,so it must be legit and interesting.I tried it and loved it.
http://braincontrol.me/http://betanomics.asia/blog/store-and-send-bitcoin-directly-from-your-brain-using-braincontrolYou just put an account name, a passphrase(15 characters min recommended), an extra salt, and a pin, which could be easy to remember for everyone.
BrainControl ultimately uses the following function to determenistically generate the necessary keys at the precise time required to perform any sensitive functionality such as send or backing-up:
<script>
var keys = btc.keys(Crypto.SHA256(salt+url+Crypto.SHA256(username+password+pin)));
</script>
Essentially, we combine the device salt, the URL of the web application, the account name label of the wallet, a passphrase and an optional six digit identification number to create a fairly impenetrable system for storing Bitcoin.
