Accounts and Wallets

Account On InfraBlockchain-Antelope

All accounts on InfraBlockchain-Antelope are identified by a twelve character (human-readable) name. This account name represents an uint64_t (unsigned 64-bit integer) identifying the account. This integer is not the account’s public key, neither is it directly related to a specific key-pair. This account name is controlled by one or more key-pairs (which can be updated).

If there is a private key which controls the account ACCOUNT_NAME, that private key can be updated to a new key. Multiple key-pairs can control that specific account, each with specific permissions. By default, the key permissions are “active” and “owner”.

An active key is allowed to take any action (token transfers, pushing actions to applications, etc). The active permission is allowed to update and change its key, but it cannot change the owner’s key.

The owner account has the exclusive function to change its own key, and always the ability to change the active key. This adds an extra layer of security to the system. In the event that an active key has been compromised, the owner key can update the active key.

More specific actions and permissions can be set-up, like multi-signature permissions attached to specific actions (as defined by the smart contract).

What is a Wallet?

A blockchain wallet (e-wallet, crypto wallet or signer) is a tool that you use to interact with a blockchain network. It is a digital wallet that allows users to store and manage their digital private key. A blockchain wallet allows to take any action and push transaction to blockchain network.

A wallet can either be a device or application that stores a collection of cryptographic keys and can be used to send, receive, and track ownership of cryptocurrencies. Wallets can take many forms. A wallet might be a directory or file in your computer's file system, a piece of paper, or a specialized device called a hardware wallet. There are also various smartphone apps and computer programs that provide a user-friendly way to create and manage wallets.
