Qortal’s security when compared to credit cards, is a perfect example. If you lose your card, any other person could make use of it since the information to USE THE ACCOUNT is printed ON THE CARD. This is NO SECURITY AT ALL. So credit card companies often have to rely upon ‘fraud prevention’ and ‘refunds’ to people since they experience countless fraudulent transactions daily. In Qortal, it simply isn’t possible for any other user to access an account, unless the creator of the account gives the other user the passphrase to decrypt their locally saved backup information. Qortal’s security system is as simple as that, it just isn’t possible to access another user’s account without the account owner providing the information to do so. | Qortal’s security when compared to credit cards, is a perfect example.
