Description

I stupidly created my Keybase account while working at a company and I am now about to leave the company and go somewhere else. I referenced the company in my username, but I didn't realise how useful at the time Keybase would be, and I dont want to loose all my account info, contacts, lumens, not to mention I'm a "lucky airdropee". Is there any way that I can change my account name?
