Hello great Steemians, it my pleasure to carry on with another task on basic security on Steem, knowing the 4 different Steem keys and a master password for an account.

QUESTION 1: HAVE YOU RETRIEVED ALL YOUR KEYS ON STEEMIT?.

Yes, knowing my Steem keys are most essential, I have retrieved and saved all my Steem keys both online on my device and offline in an archive.

QUESTION 2: DO YOU KNOW THE FUNCTION AND RESTRICTIONS OF EACH OF THESE KEYS?.

Retrieving and saving each of these key gives me the room to know the keys and their restrictions, and at the end of this task, I will know more about these keys effectively and efficiently as will be mentioned. Posting key, Active key, Owner key, Memo key, Master key and the Tron public key and private key.

•POSTING KEY: The posting key merely use for posting, up voting and down voting, writing comments on post, editing text, and to follow or mute accounts.

•ACTIVE KEY: Merely use for transferring Steem tokens, converting SBD to steems, power up or power down, change profile and cover photo, and vote for a witness.

•OWNER KEY: The owner key is use to reset other keys like posting key, Active key and other keys in other to recover an account.

•THE MEMO KEY: Use for sending and viewing encrypted messages.

•TRON ACCOUNT PUBLIC KEY: As clearly stated, this key is use for public transfers.

•TRON ACCOUNT PRIVATE KEY: This key is use for transferring tokens, freezing and voting TRX. This key has a higher authority on your TRON account.

•THE MASTER KEY OR(PASSWORD): Which is the most important key to be kept safely as it's the entry and exit of your account. This key is use to drive all your account keys and shouldn't be tampered with.

QUESTION 3: HOW DO YOU SAVE YOUR MASTER PASSWORD?.

Knowing that my master password is the main password, I have saved it both online on my device and offline in an archive for easy verification when needed.

QUESTION NUMBER 4: DO YOU KNOW HOW TO TRANSFER STEEM TOKEN TO ANOTHER ACCOUNT?.

Yes, knowing the function and restrictions of my keys at this point and stage gives me the knowledge to transfer Steem Tokens to another as illustrated below;
