Hello my fellow steemit members,
Warm greetings from me to you all.

Here's my post for achievement 2 task and I am @emyy.
Before proceeding, I want to thank @ngoenyi for the insights on my Introductory post and I also want to thank @cryptokannon for the detailed post on how to complete achievement 2 task.
For our members who are still planning their achievement 2 task, please go through @cryptokannon achievement 2 post here and learn more.

From the very first day I opened my steemit account, I discovered that unlike so many other platforms that I know, steemit is unique in terms of it's account security. Steemit has different keys used to authorize different actions on steemit account and I think the goal of it is to ensure quality security on all steemit account. But there is a key that has a major authorization over your steemit account and other keys which I like to call - master key.

Questions and Answers:

  1. Have you retrieved all your keys on steemit?
    Of course, I did that immediately after creating my account. The following are the keys: Tron public key(trx address), Tron Private key, Private Posting key, Private memo key, Private Active key and private owner key.
  2. Do you know each of these key functions and restrictions?
    I know them and their uses.

A. Tron Public Key(Tron address):
This key is like an address which you can send Tron(trx) to. That is, is like an address which you can use to receive tron(trx).

B. Tron Private Key:
This key is the major Tron key that authorizes all Tron transactions and actions on Tron account. This key is very important because with it, authorization is granted to your Tron account.

C. Private Posting Key:
I usually call this key - social key. This key authorizes login to steemit and to carry out any social activity such as posting.

D. Private Memo Key:
This key is useful in decrypting private transfer memos.

E. Private Active Key:
It is used to authorize activities related to wallet and monetary functions such as steem power up and down and token transfer. This is a very important key because it gives authorization to your steem token and other token conversions and transfers.

F. Private Owner Key:
I think this is the most important key of all the keys. This key grants authorization to account recovery, and resetting of other keys. That means authorization to this key may compromise other keys.

  1. How do you plan to keep your master password?
    Immediately after creating my steemit account, I wrote down my master password in my secret password diary and burned it to my CD with a name that is not obvious.

  2. Do you know how to transfer your steem token to another steem user account?
    Of course, I know how to do that. Click on wallet and click on the drop down arrow showing beside your steem balance. Click on transfer, to proceed.

  3. Do you know how to power up your steem?
    I know how to do that, still on your wallet, click on the same drop down arrow showing beside your steem balance, then click on power up.

I am so happy to have completed this achievement 2 task.
