Why you should know about steemconnect if you are a new steemian

Hey guys, whazzap?
Hopefully all are doing very good. I am also rocking.

Today i will be sharing a very important thing which is so much important for newbies on steemit. I will be talking about Steemconnect. It is a very essential tool for steemians.
Steemconnect Github repository- https://github.com/steemit/steemconnect

But do the newbies well know about it? You may be thinking why i am asking this weird question.
You guys know there is running byteball airdrop for steemians. One of my friend was guiding a guy on discord to get his own free $. All was going good, but when he saw the link and my friend said him to sign in he thought it is a phishing link.
That means he don't know about steemconnect, a essential tool for steem blockchain.

For surviving on steemit you must own the basic knowledge of steemit. Think about that guy who was fearing of sign in . He will be lagging behind if he don't get education on this.

• So what is steemconnect and why it is used?

Steemconnect is a token based authentication for Steem which made steemit easier. Every steem blockchain based front end/platform is using. They had set some needy permission over there and through steemconnect you will only allow those specific permission even if you input the Master password.
Without this steemit fornt end is not providing all features of steem blockchain, through steemconnect we can use around all of the features like- Delegation/lease of sp , Allowing/Revoking permission of any app and many more which i dont remember and also i am not aware of.

But i can't say that the guy was wrong as phishing sites are taking over us. He was aware of phishing but not of steemconnect.
Steemcoonect has 2 version, we can use both version though v2 version is now implemented all over. So when you are going to sign in a through a steemconnect link make sure that the link is starting with- https://v2.steemconnect.com/ or https://steemconnect.com/
Make sure that there is a / sign after .com as many makes phishing sites like- www.gmail.com0000000000dshu.me/
On first view it looks a legit link but no, it is a phishing link and made in a way to game you.

So guys, don't afraid of steemconnect link, learn more from witness's post, experienced person's post as they always do good stuffs for this platform.

And yes be aware of phishing link as it is happening too much now a days
Don't just click and sign in going on any link which you found in post or comment saying free upvotes or dollar
