Use Case: My Sad Experiences About Loss of Account Information
About 3 months ago, I helped a friend open a steemit account - @Edichris, sadly, he lost the login details after the account was verified due to the breakdown of his system. All efforts to regain the username and password were abortive for about 2 months after, when we stumbled a piece of paper where the password was written and misplaced. By this time, the flare and enthusiasm he had for steemit had been killed. Similar issues are also recorded for my friend - @udysoft and brother - @annydominic. In their cases, they actually saved the password but on a text app that either modified the cases, joined letters or introduced irrelevant characters into the password. Till now, both account login information remains lost. The issues above captured has given me so much worries about the future of crypto wallets as one might lose a lot of fortune and life savings in cases of fire outbreak, e-mail hack, system crash or theft. While I have been looking out for possible ways to solve this problem, I was glad that I stumbled - Goldilock story as posted by @Originalworks:

Hope Restored With Goldilock
Goldilock is a digital asset security ecosystem which is revolutionizing the way data is stored by securing cryptocurrencies and digital assets off the internet until a user seeks to use their data for a purpose.
Goldilock's encrypted nodes remain vaulted offline, physically disconnected from the internet until a user brings their personal device online remotely via a non-IP (not over the internet) command, after which time they can access it using the same bank-level security mechanisms they would with other sensitive data. Once the user is finished using their node to complete transactions, allocate asset rights, or transfer specified data, the node then reverts to an isolated physical air gap environment, invisible and inaccessible from the internet - @Originalworks
According to the information contained in the Goldilock whitepaper, Goldilock was launched in Q2 of 2018 with the major goal of providing a remote physical disconnection of data from the internet with a security suite that leverages multi-factor authentication, biometrics, regressive technology triggers, and cryptography. This, is believed will transfer the stress and troubles of securing wallets from the user/owner to a physically-segregated platform. Simply put, Goldilock is an airgap security solution for storage of sensitive digital assets and custody of cryptocurrency key.
