{Achievement 2 } || Details about all of Steemit's key

in Newcomers' Community4 years ago (edited)

Hello everyone hope you all are doing it well and today I am going to make you all learn about the importance of keys
I’m new to steemit, yet in my almost a 2 days of experience I have learned a bit about this key's. And that's what I'm going to share now. Now let me say my name once before, my name is Ayush Pathak. I came to steemit to be a successful steemian's . Also note a small scenario before talking about the keys, say your parents and you live in your home. So you have a lot of keys. You have a key to the gate of your home. Suppose you are a security manager of a bank which provides the best security in the state so will you use a single key for the lockers you must have different patterns or different kind of key for every position that's what steemit is doing
In the same way, steemit also uses posting key, active key, owner key and memo key.
Now notice one more thing.
Here you keep duplicates of all the keys of you lockers and don't let anyone know. Because if someone gets it, he will get all the other keys. steemit also comes with a key called the main password or master key .
With which a lot can be done. This master key of Steamit is the most important. The rest are not important. I think now you have a little bit of idea why so many keys are used on Steemit. This is of course to ensure security

Steemit Keys & Permissions
So now I am going to tell you the details about all the keys. and That's what is done with these.

From this image all the keys can be find.

MASTER KEY:
You can do a lot with the master key. The master key is so important that with the master key you can get access all the keys. The master key is therefore very important and should be saved offline and you will never be able to recover lost key so it is a very important key.

POSTING KEY:
The first thing that comes to mind is the posting key. What you do with the posting key is that if you want to post, comment, or vote for someone, unvote, or reblog, you'll need a posting key. While not a groundbreaking contribution to the genre, it is one of the most important. Because if someone gets this key, he will be able to do all of the above from your account. So this key is somewhat important.

ACTIVE KEY
The key that comes to you after that is the active key. The active key is a very important thing. Because with this key you can access your wallet. Again there are many apps that can be accessed with this key. Then you understand how important it is because if someone gets your active key. he will be able to transfer money from your wallet. Can withdraw money. That means your active key is the most important. Because if the active key is lost, it can make your wallet zero. So it has to be kept as secure as possible.

** How to power up your STEEM?**
Yes I know how to power up my steem. I can power up through my steemitwallet and complete this transaction by using my Active key.

OWNER KEY
Owner key is a very important key. Because with this key you can change all the keys that you have left which means active key posting key and memo key. This means that it is very important and this key must be saved offline.

MEMO KEY
Now let's say memo key which means that if you want to read the encrypted message, you will need the memo key.
