ACHIEVEMENT TWO POST BY @ghanaba BASIC SECURITY TIPS ON STEEM
Hello fellow Steemians!
After being on this great platform for few days, I've been perusing the site to know more about how to start my achievement two post but luckily for me, @farhmade came to my rescue with tutorials on basic security tips on steemit.
The task of achievement two is a series of question which i would be answering thoroughly without any ambiguity.
Question; Have you retrieve all your keys on steemit?
Immediately after my sign up, i received all my keys on steemit. and to make sure it's safe, i have stored it on my google drive with an offline backup on my hard drive as well as a printed copy. this would help me log in and make transaction no matter my location.
Question
Do you know each of these keys functions and restrictions?
Indeed! I know the keys very well by spending a lot of time to learn about their respective function and restrictions. I would like to explain the various keys and their functions starting with;
Posting Keys; this key allows a user to login, post, edit, resteem, vote, comment, follow and mute accounts. the listed function is made possible when you're logged in. Again, the keys also helps restrict the damaging the account key is likely to cause.
Active Keys; this key is quite delicate due to its function such as using it to; transfer of funds, placing a market order. power up/down transactions, converting Steem Dollars, updating profile details, voting for witness, and avatar, and.
Owner Key;I the owner key is the most powerful key due to its ability to change any key of an account, including the owner key. This key is stored offline and used to recover a compromised account.
Memo Key;this key is used in encrypting and decrypting memos when funds are transferred.
Question
How do you plan to keep your master password
Because i fear loosing my master password, i have stored it on my google drive, my flash drive and laptop.
Question
Do you know how to transfer your Steem token to another steem user account?
