Biometrics as private keys are an absolutely horrible idea as it is.
Proposing to use that private key as your one true interface to the digital financial world is ever more insane.
The idea that proprietary technology and information(the scanners, software and everything that the organization owns) can somehow make this safe and secure is evil.
- tim333 3y agoThey don't do that "private keys are randomly generated, completely independent of any biometric information, and each other." from their docs
- afiori 3y agobut aren't they using biometrics as passwords to access those private keys? or at least to manage them (create new ones and/or revoke older ones)?
