• FIO Public Key in Account Conflict Resolution

  • The same FIO Public Key could exist in Primary account and Alternative account and those would be considered separate accounts

    • Example:

      • User A creates Primary Account using email and password

      • User A imports seed phrase ABC

      • User A connects to FIO App using Metamask which has seed phrase ABC installed

      • User A has 2 different accounts:

        • Primary Account

          • Key generated by EDGE

          • Key imported using seed phrase ABC (Account index 0)

        • Alternative Account

          • Key imported using seed phrase ABC (Account index 0)

  • However, when user has an Alternative Account, they can access the same Account using different methods

    • Example:

      • User A connects to FIO App using Metamask which has seed phrase ABC installed

      • In a different browser User A connects to FIO App using Opera which has seed phrase ABC installed

      • Only a single account exists and is simultaneously accessed from Metamask and Opera

• Multiple Wallets

  • For Alternative Accounts, users can Create New Wallets. When they do each additional Wallet is the next index in the derivation path (same as for https://fioprotocol.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DAO/pages/404291585)

  • For Alternative Accounts, users can add a Ledger Wallet.

• Process

  • Create Account - if FIO Public Key is not associated to an account, create account

  • Log user in

Sign Transaction

• Transaction signing occurs in specific wallet

• Transaction json should be shown
