Does Ethos Have a Copy of My Private Keys?

No, Ethos does not and will never have a copy of your private keys. When you generate a wallet, there is a handshake with our server that sends a copy of the extended public key to us. As you may know, you can create seemingly infinite private and public key pairs. The extended public key stored by Ethos allows us to generate public addresses, track wallet balances, and support airdrops.
