This is my first time using the Nxt wallet. I first downloaded and installed it from http://nxtra.org/nxt-wallet/ (Mac version). Upon first installing the wallet it selected a randomly generated 12-word passphrase for me and gave me an account ID. I closed the wallet and then reopened it. I entered a different passphrase than the one initially given to me to see if the wallet would still give me access. The wallet gave me access to the dashboard but I observed a different account ID than the one given to me when given the randomly generated 12-word passphrase. Is this normal? Why do I get access to the dashboard and see a different account ID when entering an incorrect passphrase? I guess this stresses the importance of never losing you passphrase; otherwise you have no way of accessing the assets tied to a particular account ID ... I think.  Huh

Yes, the passphrase defines the account (brain wallet). If you enter a different phrase, you open a different account.
So... never lose it! Tongue


mmmh, brain . . thats my the problem, right there, mine is small . . So, I use "Key-pass" 2.xx (generates loong, raandom, passwords), use with "Data backup" - plug in, and I have backups on USBs, etc. in different locations.

It was said several times before, but you can´t repeat that often enough (sticky? mods ! ) ! !
Oh, and switch it to "auto-type obfuscation", and "secure desktop" to enter your master-password !

At first, its a bit of work, to set up, but then it lets you finally sleep sound, and dream of your wealth . . Smiley


Until someone cracks keepass and gets immediate access to all your accounts.

I run a good Antivirus and "Spyshelter" at the same time. And I don´t look pornos, well, at least not on this PC . .  Smiley Smiley

What about a hardware bug? Or some obscure 0 day exploit picked up from an infected everyday website?

I appreciate your thoroughness "_mr_e". And, first of all: thats the right attitude, really, has nothing to do with paranoia, but awareness ! !

Well, for hardware bugs, I have my backups, as I said. (or do you you mean hardware spys ?)
And for "0 days", theres "Spyshelter" (and another similar), who asks me about every process, which wants to run, to confirm it.
The first two weeks its a little annoying, but it remembers all my decisions, and then its mostly quiet . .

knock on wood !
