The main purpose of this work is that new users should know how to secure their account.
And they should understand the use of their wallet.
Here I am going to answer various questions related to Steemit's security.

How can I keep my Steemit account secure?

We should save our master password and keep it in a safe place. Like I first saved my password in my phone and then I saved it in my macbook under another password. I also saved it in my Google Drive.
We should not share our password with anyone.

Why should I be careful with my master password?

This is just the master password used to get all the other keys to the Steemit account. If someone knows your master password, they have full access to your account and they can steal all your tokens and your account in it.

What are my different keys for?

  1. Posting Key: This key allows us to post, comment, edit, vote, reply, retain and follow or follow other accounts.
  2. Active Key: This key is used to update profile, transfer funds, power up, power down, change stem dollars, vote for witness.
  3. Owner Key / Private Key: This key is used to retrieve compromised account, it is the most powerful key because it is used to change all other account keys when requested. ۔
  4. Memo key: This key is used to decode the memo. When encrypting a memo, we must first use the pound / # sign.
