Achievement 2: Basic security on steemit by @tanko98

in Newcomers' Community5 years ago

Hello guys
Having finished with my achievement one, I am posting my achievement two which is on basic security tips.
Without further I do, let's just jump in.

QUESTION 1: Have you retrieve all your keys on steemit?

Yes, I was able to retrieve my keys immediately after signing up and I saved it on my Gmail and external drives

QUESTION 2: Do you know each of these keys functions and restrictions?

After reading and doing some inquiries about the keys I was able know what each key is and what each is used for. The keys and their functions are highlighted below

  • Active key; it's use to transfer funds, power up/down transactions and just the general monetary and wallet related activities

  • Posting key; it's used to log in to your steemit social account where you can comment, post, edit on the platform

  • Memo key; it's used to decrypt memos when transferring funds

  • Owner key; it's used to recover steemit account after it has been tampered with. It can change any key and hence can be used to reset all the keys. So it's advisable it's kept offline and in a safe place

QUESTION 3: How do you plan to keep your master password?

I am going to store my master password on my Google account. I will also save it on my hard drives and external storage devices.

QUESTION 4: Do you know how to transfer your steem token to another steem user account?

Yes I am able to by following these steps;

  1. Click on the avatar icon to show a drop down menu.
  2. from the drop down menu, click on 'wallet'
  3. it takes you to the steemit wallet site. Sign in if you are logged out using the 'active' key
  4. click on 'steem'
  5. click on 'transfer'
  6. type the recipient user name
  7. click next and confirm.
