Achievement 2 @akcares Task : Basic Security on Steem
Greetings Super Steemians,
I wish not to remain a newcomer for life so I am trying to move up. I know I have your support.
So, for my achievement two,
Question 1: Have you retrieve all your keys on steemit?
Yes, I have retrieved all my keys for the various functions and I have properly saved them. All three categories of keys (Tron account key, Steemit private keys and Steemit public keys), are intact.
Question2: Do you know each of these key functions and restrictions?
I am positive I can tell which of these keys is for what. Like the Tron account keys which are used to sanction transactions and operations involving Tron coin. For my Steemit private keys, I need the to manipulate all actions on Steem. My private posting key is needed when I want to log into steem and drop or view posts. When I am undertaking transfers, I am to make use of memo key to decrypt private transfer memos.
In my wallet, any action that I want to take will need me to use my private active key. Actions like transferring tokens, powering up Steem, requires this private active key. When I wish to change my keys above or reset them, I am to use my private owner key.
Furthermore, my Steem master key is necessary if my account needs to be recovered. All the public keys though not for login purposes are applied when dealing with username related activities.
Question 3: How do you plan to keep your master password?
Well, having know that it is the ultimate key among all other keys, I know that I MUST keep it very safe and private. Since I have no intention of losing my account and forfeiting all my tokens, first, I have sent my keys and password to my mail.
Secondly, my keys have been kept in my adobe cloud as a PDF file.
Also, my storage disk drive has a copy of my keys.
With these online and offline storage locations, I believe I cannot completely lose my keys upon any eventuality.
Question 4: Do you know how to transfer your steem token to another steem user account?
Yes I know how to transfer my Steem token to another user. with what I have researched and was shown by a friend, I can comfortably do this.
Going to my wallet after logging in, I tapped on the drop down arrow beside it. Then I followed the prompts to carry out the transfer and later powering up operations.
Here is my Steem walllet prior to the two operations. You can see the drop down arrow giving me options of transferring, powering up and other operations. It also indicates my wallet balance of 12.8 Steem.
I first logged into my Steem wallet so I could carry out the transfer.
This is my Steem wallet, you can see I have 12.8 Steems at the commencement of these operations.
I decided to transfer 1 Steem to my friend @utibeoefdiongart. I just followed the dialogue boxes and filled in the necessary details. This was after I had visited my wallet.
Still on the Steem transfer interface trying to send 1 Steem across.

Question 5: Do you know how to power up your STEEM?
Having read the article by @kiwiscanfly on Understanding your steemit wallet, I believe I can easily power up my Steem.
The procedure for powering up my Steem has been explained in the sample article.
Following similar steps as with the transfer operation, I could successfully power up my account.
The operations turned out to be quite easy and fun.
While trying to power up, I was taken to this interface where I could input what amount of Steem I wanted to power up with.
I opted to power up with 1Steem
Here is my Steem balance after powering up with 1 Steem.
I believe I have acquired as much details about my keys, their functions, and my wallet.
