Love what hedgehog is doing! However, we are cross-platform and never expose the users master private keys to the developer. When a user logs in to an app, only the app specific key pair is delivered on auth.

Let me know if you have any other questions :)


Thanks Friedger, do you have a person we can talk to there? Would love to start a conversation with them!


Yes! This is one of the top things on our priority list. We will be completely removing the need for passwords and switch to one time use passwords and 2FA.

You can sign up for our slack on our website and we'll keep you updated :)


Thanks Jonathan for the kind words, we hope more people can start using the amazing apps being built on Ethereum, Blockstack, EOS, etc.


Great catch! I pushed the demo up to netlify and it should work now

We are working on a solution where you never have to set or remember your password


The seed is generated on the lambda, encrypted client side and stored in our database.


We've been moving fast trying to get SimpleID in as many hands as possible, but we absolutely want to support other blockchains. More in-depth Ethereum support is next up, then we want to look at adding support for blockchains like EOS, Steem, and more. It'd be great to get feedback from others on what blockchains to support!


I think maybe Heroku is a better analogy in this scenario?


Very cool gdotdesign! We're working on something similar in the decentralized auth space.

Just curious, how/why did you pick email sending as a service add on?


It was easier then implementing it by hand, making sure that they are delivered to the inbox, etc.


FYI, there's a demo to try here: https://www.simpleid.xyz/demo
