Perform key rotation when using recoverFromShards #344

Open VolkerSchiewe opened 5 years ago

VolkerSchiewe commented 5 years ago

Problem Social recovery based on secret sharing should be used to perform a key rotation of the main key of the user based on the recovery key. In the current implementation of recoverFromShards the sharded key is only used to authenticate the user.

The Jolocom registry does not support key rotations right now. This has to be implemented first.
