Dear Internet Computer Community, We are thrilled to announce a significant leap forward for Internet Identity, our authentication service for the Internet Computer. We’re introducing Internet Identity 2.0, a complete redesign and re-engineering aimed at making decentralized authentication more acc…

Will Internet Identity 2.0 have seed phrase that can be ‘hardened’ too? My concern is if one of passkey device is compromised, can the hacker take over the internet identity by revoking other device passkey owned by the true owner ?

From what the II Team explained earlier, 2.0 is supposed to be fully backward compatible to the legacy version, so I conclude that this valuable option of additional seed phrase security will also be included.

Yes, seed phrases are in the roadmap of 2.0. I’m hoping will soon start working on it.

Okay, but let’s be clear about something. Will the old seed phrase remain valid? How do I migrate if I only have the seed phrase as a recovery method (I don’t have a hardware /security / usb key - and don’t plan on getting one). I only use the seed phrase as a login / authorize method on a new devi…

In my opinion, II2.0 should not be released without a seed phrase because seed phrases are the last resort for web3 security. Google authentication can be blocked, devices can be damaged (both of which I have experienced), devices can become outdated, and so on. Private keys or seed phrases should b…

Is it possible to register seedphrase with airgapped device?

Hello sir, What is the mnemonic word pattern of II 2.0 like? I hope it remains the same as that of II 1.0, which is the pattern of number + phrase. This way, users of II1.0 can transfer to II 2.0 more conveniently, and even many years later, users of 1.0 can easily retrieve their accounts.

Is it possible to migrate an II1.0 to an II2.0 and use the same name that was used to create an II2.0 test account when it first came out?
