RE: SNAX Launching The Mainnet Tomorrow At 12:00 UTC
Hello @dragosroua - thanks for writing about snax which I'm looking into.
First, thanks for talking about JEScoin - I heard about it from you and have been mining it.
Second, a Question please!
Aren't there security risks with downloading and installing a Chrome extension? Couldn't it theoretically read data we enter on chrome like steem keys etc? Have you vetted the code for the snax extension and do you vouch for it's safety?
Better paranoid than sorry! :D
I did not conduct any security analysis myself, but the extension was approved by Chrome store, which does some tests. With that being said, don't use anything unless you trust it completely.
Thanks for your answer!
I created a Linux Virtual Machine and downloaded Chrome on it. Nothing open in Chrome other than Twitter and snax.one. I installed the extension and made a wallet, then tweeted the provided tweet, and got my 50 snax airdrop. Maybe over cautious to do it this way but I think it's about the safest way to do it.
