Just a suggestion:
Translation: Make it easy, is how normal people say, "Reduce Cognitive Load", in case anyone from SteemIt, Inc. sees this.
It's great you now want to separate the wallets from SteemIt.com, and are in the process of doing it.
Yet, I still feel like you are missing the boat on a User-Friendly experience.
User Experience as most corporations know is based on emotion. When a user signs up for SteemIt.com they already get several scary messages about saving the password. I know this is necessary, but the first emotion given to users is fear. Next, we give them 4 scary passwords with names that mean nothing, even to me after being here for 3 years. This creates stress. It feels hard. People like to do things that are easy. It leaves also them open to making mistakes.
Now, in addition, you are going to make them select the correct scary password to log on to SteemIt.com and a different scary password to login to their wallet. Isn't there an easier way?
Everyone loves to brag about our community. The way that Steem earned it's non-crypto users was by having an easy front-door. SteemIt.com. Knowing nothing about crypto, I could come in make some posts, read some other posts and start to understand the concept of Blockchain, Keys, Wallets, Block times, Mining, DPOS (all the crypto things) and all the things you guys talk about. I didn't come here knowing all of that, and yet I could figure it out. Once a user's Steem starts to grow and they get excited, they can figure out how to open an account at Coinbase or other sites to buy some crypto and learn to buy, sell and trade it. All because we had an easy place for new users to land and post, ask questions and learn.
So many blockchain projects are out there looking for ways to gather mainstream adoption, and we have it. We have it and we don't appreciate it at all. The blogging sites keep people here and the gaming sites keep them busy and give them places to use their Steem, this is the beginning of the economy. But, I am getting side tracked.
Back to the Keys. Can't you have an easy button so they don't have to know which password to use where and handle it somehow by default with the password or some other mechanism? Or reduce the number of keys the average user is presented with? How many people need all 4 keys and know when to use them? I don't.
I imagine someone will say there isn't time to fix it right now.. There is never time to do things right, but are you really ever going to do it over? I think the best way to handle the wallets would still dumb it down quite a bit further rather than make it harder from an end-user perspective. Consider doing it while it is fresh in the developers mind.
When I read about projects that other blockchains are doing they are often talking about how to attract mainstream users. We have them. Many of them came here to write, communicate, and have created a bond and that is why we have a special community, compared to most blockchains. Many didn't stay because it was too hard or they didn't feel appreciated. Let's not squander the remaining community and our shot at future crypto users.
Make it Easy!!
Many blockchains have a ton of apps that do not get a lot of traffic. Many blockchains have a lot of security features that make them difficult to use, while I understand we need to keep security, why not spend a little time trying to engineer an easier fix?
