Account reset without seven day wait #4071

Open nattsw opened 2 years ago

nattsw commented 2 years ago

Hey there!

I've triggered an account reset, and am on my third day in out of the seven days. I was wondering if there could be a way to skip the seven days as I have some time-dependent transaction relying on my keybase account I would ideally like to execute today. My keybase account has been proved with this GitHub account (they're both using the same username).

What 'time based transaction' is based on your specific keybase username? If you're trying to get access to a previous Lumen wallet that's not going to happen. When you reset your account all it does is give you access to the username, your previous conversations, files, wallet etc are all nuked as only YOU have the keys to that, keybase does not store your private keys anywhere and there's no way to reset an account to regain access to something you did in the past, resetting the account only gives you access to the username itself in case you have lost your keys but wish to continue using that username - as a NEW user.
