Re: [NEM] NEM -New Economy Movement - No Envy Movement - Updates+Discussion thread
I almost had a heart attack!!! a few minutes ago I logged in to my next wallet using the security phrase and by my surprise I did have a different ID code and my next and nem stake was not there, it was like a new account and I said....WHERE IS MY PRECIOUS NEM STAKE??? I was panicking not knowing what to do, I said this is a nightmare! I decided to log out and log in using the same security phrase again and this time thanks to GOD the right ID code and my Precious Stake was there!!! did someone experience this?
If you mistype password that will happen. If you are copying and pasting password from notepad I heard sometimes it adds extra space in the beginning or end. Use password managers. They are secure and encrypt your passwords locally. The master password for password manager doesn't have to be as long as Nxt password. Just any 10 to 12 char password will be fine. There is Keypass. I use Lastpass https://lastpass.com/
Better security. It can be better, but is it good enough?
During the last 12 months security, leaks and cracks have been in the news and raised many questions. When also crypto money has increased, it will attract many crackers, to install , in a way or another, their software to your PC's and smart phones. Will it be easy to collect people's passwords? Yes it will.
Another point of view lies in these

If there will be a war between cryptos and fiat, it may be a secret war, because it is not a good sign if governments try to strike people's attempts to freedom. The war will be executed secretly, behind the scenes. An easy way will be to crack some cryptos or make people feel unsecure with their savings.
And passwords
