Image Source: @manuelhooks achievement 2 post
After carefully reading and practically mastering the information on the function of the various keys, and other additional task, together with the moved made by @saxopedia, my mentor, who verified my Achievement 1, I now bring to you my Achievement 2 post for verification.
I will present the post as guided by the various questions:
QUESTION 1: Have you retrieve all your keys on steemit?
ANSWER: YES. I joined the Steemit World about 2 weeks ago when my brother @paddykam told me of it. And after creating my account, the way first thing I did was to download a pdf file of my keys and there all well kept.
QUESTION 2: Do you know each of these key functions and restrictions?
ANSWER: YES. I have tried using them and I have a better understanding of how they do function and where there are restricted.
For example:-
POSTING KEY:- It allows me to post, comment, edit, vote, resteem, and follow or mute other accounts. A limited posting key exist to restrict any damage on my account in case of an account compromised.
ACTIVE KEY:- It allows me to transfer funds, power up/down transactions, converting Steem Dollars, voting for witnesses, updating profile details and avatar and placing a market order. This are very sensitive task.
OWNER KEY:- It is the most powerful key because it allows me to change any key in my account. I stored it in confidential locations in my house and office. This is because in case of an account compromised, I need it to recover my compromised account.
MEMO KEY:- This key allows me to encrypt and decrypt memos when transferring funds. In order to encrypt a memo, I need to use the Pound/# sign before it works.
MASTER PASSWORD:- Just as the name goes, it's the most powerful key. It is the password I get upon signing up. It's used to generate all the other keys in case of an account compromised. I can only use the master password to recover my account.
QUESTION 3: How do you plan to keep your master password?
ANSWER: I had long printed out o copy of my Steem keys, filed a copy in the folder containing my confidential files. And I am also thinking of encrypting the keys to store in the cloud so I can access it from any where and location.
QUESTION 4: Do you know how to transfer your Steem token to another Steem user account?
ANSWER: Yes.
