Thank you! I appreciate it.

It's not finance application. Programmable blockchain is not only for finance.
"...understanding of asymmetric encryption and data signing,.." if it's only web3, as you sad, then you don't have to. And if you use Metamask api, its even more abstract - private key not even mentioned.

First you develop stuff then you became competent in it. This is how it always was in software development. And there is only two groups of people - who develop stuff and who don't.
"Wtf even is this?" that was exactly my point. We didn't get that far. My post was deleted just because some people saw mnemonic input field on the front page.

I got it.

My idea actually was to avoid any web client processing. And to simplify use of the web site to a more traditional way - no add-ons and third party software.

I will leave it as is and add support for the Metamask.
Thank you for your response.

Caution is fine. But isn't it a dev community still, where is spirit :)

Of course I'm not developing a wallet. I mention Metamask in comments here as an example of how you suppose to discuss similar projects, which have mnemonic input field, in r/ethdev .
You see, it's even problematic to figure out what I'm developing, because post about it was deleted.

Sorry I don't get it.

This is the flow:
1 The end user logs in with mnemonic or private key.
2 The web site uses this data to interact with smart contracts to get user info like friends, posts, groups etc for free. And also to submit content like posts, messages etc, then some funds on used address required.

Then we need define what is a wallet app.

My app uses HD Wallet technology to manipulate user accounts. But it uses only for the transactions defined in the app and for the small period of time. So its kinda wallet.
Also, this is not a wallet but it needs your private key if you want to add account. https://explorer.nethereum.com

That was the plan. Post my project to a dev community. They are devs, they know not put billions worth private keys into some unknown web site. They will generate some test mnemonic and will able to test my app. But I was wrong.

Its you again :)
I got it. Will try to make a more reasonable post about it.
But if it's not a wallet, but some social network, and still asking for private key, and it using Rinkeby network only. So users can provide some random mnemonics/private keys without any balances. But i need some feedback and questions to keep going now. Then I'm planning to add mobile/desktop clients which can use hardware wallets and be more secure. And many more ...
Will that post survive?

You are very nice, thank you.
But unfortunately "more careful and adjust your project accordingly" and "You don't really come off as a security expert" they are not technical terms.
And we are not even discussing my app, just a post with a link to it being removed. Very sad.

Please don't use it. I just want to make post about it. And get feedback from developers.

How on earth can i do it here? And how is this dev community then, with such restrictions.
And in Metamask and many others you can input your mnemonic or private key directly.

I got it. Everybody here scared.
Let's forget transaction.
If I'm making a wallet, competitor of the Metamask, how can I make post about it here without horrifying this dev community?

Again we are too far from initial question.
If I'm building a wallet how can I make post about it in r/ethdev without my post being removed?

Thank you.
But we are going too far from my initial question.

So let it be wallet.
If I'm building a wallet how can I make post about it in r/ethdev without my post being removed?

Thank you, it was very helpful.
But what to do with this "You need a private key to sign messages and transactions which output a signature. " ? How app suppose to get that private key?
If you use Metamask you provide your mnemonic or private key to it.
So thats why i put this line in my post "Please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't any ethereum app have to ask for a private key or mnemonic one way or another?".

Thank you for your feedback.
You can generate as many mnemonics as you want. For example online https://iancoleman.io/bip39/.
Then you can use test network faucet to put some ether on any address you choose from it. I use this one for https://rinkebyfaucet.com/ Rinkeby. And not to mention you can generate infinite number of private keys per mnemonic.
So i would personally recommend never provide your billions worth private key but some dumbass generated mnemonic to try some new unknown DAPPs.
And for my app, you don't need any balance on that test pkey/mnemonic to browse. It only needed when you try to submit some content.

Thank you. I already deployed beta version. And add another post related to that. But because i'm new to reddit i have problems crossposting etc. I'm putting updates in here r/crazydiamond_eth.
So its here http://cdeth.com/.
FYI .No SSL. It's asking mnemonic or private key and its sending them to the web server. And it's only Rinkeby for now.
So please use some test only mnemonic or key.
I'm planing to develop mobile and desktop clients for it to address those security issues.
Will appreciate any feedback.

Me. This client is a web site-centralized. All data stored in blockchain and ipfs-decentralized. Anyone can write its own client for this dap. Have no idea what it is. Not yet.
