The Noble Bot was launched with a view to help steemians who mistakenly broadcast their private keys in posts, comments, or in transfer memos. The start was very rough, it was much slower than other bots. But the bot was reprogrammed in the next few days and made much faster.
Before sharing its success, would like to say sorry to
. The bot got his key but was not able to change it because of some technical difficulties. I am sorry!
On June 03, posted his master password in a comment, this time
was ready and was able to update his account with new master password. By the time account update was finished,
had already taken 1.157 STEEM from him. But the good news is
was able to save close to 90 SBD.
I notified him with a wallet message to recover his account or contact on Discord. On June 6, 2:35 UTC,
successfully recovered his account via account recovery process. So, 90 SBD was saved and I’d like to consider it a success.
commented on the announcement post with an idea of warning users about not posting their private memo keys. Now
is also warning users who are using private memo key in transfer memo with a memo message. In last 10 days it has warned 29 times.
I am really happy that the community came forward and supported this initiative. I’d like to thank all who commented and showed support on the announcement post.
Special thanks to and
who supported me from the beginning in testing and with ideas.
