Achievement2 Done By @mcharmattan : Basic Security On Steem
Hello and good day everyone!
It’s been a great and amazing opportunity to be with you all and I am sending across to you all my warmest regards. Thanks for all your supports on my contents.
After a successful Completion of my Achievement1 Post, where I was been verified,
https://steemit.com/hive-172186/@mcharmattan/achievement-1-verification-by-introduction
I hereby proceed to Achievement2 which am going to share my knowledge about the basic security on steemit..
Reading through all the information about the different keys on steemit and all the security measures with other additional task as ordered by @cryptokannon, here are my brief answers to to the question on Achievement2
Question1:
Have you retrieve all your keys on steemit?
Answer
Yes! I have, knowing that Steemit cannot restore or recover a lost key, it was then vital and necessary step to take by retrieving my keys and store them on my clipboard evens as far of an offline device so as to use it when necessary.
Question2:
Do you know each of these keys function and restriction?
Answer
Yes! I know, at the course of reading the article i think i have some basic knowledge and understanding about all the keys function and restriction..
Steemit is made up of four important keys which as their own function.
There are as follows:
- Private posting key
- Private memo key
- Private active key
- Private owner key
Here is my brief explanation on each of the keys:
Posting Key: This key is use to log into steemit and perform social action like posting, commenting and voting which are the basic actions on steemit.
Memo Key: This key is use to decrypt private transfer memos.
Active key: This key is used in transferring token from one steem account to another and powering steem up and down.
Owner Key: This key is used to reset all your other keys, maybe if your account is tempered on you can quickly use this key to recover it within 30days.
Question3:
How do you plan to keep your master password?
Answer:
I save my Master Password on both a offline and online devices, also storing it in a private security app where i can personally access or retrive it.
Question4:
Do you know how to transfer your steem token to another steem user account?
Answer:
Yes! I can transfer my steem token to another user account at will.
Following this basic steps I can successfully transfer my Steem Tokens to another Steemit User Account.
- On my Steemit home page, I tap on my profile image as shown below
This page comes up showing the down lines of my account from Profile down to Logout.
Then I tap on the wallet icon as shown on the screenshot above where the yellow arrow is pointing at.
Now the below screenshot shows up and I tap on the small grey-color drop down Botton the Botton is just beside my STEEM as pointed with the yellow arrow In the screenshot below
The next one shows up then I tapped on transfer caption as shown on screenshot bellow.
This comes up and I fill the details of the account I want to transfer to, the amount i want to transfer and add my memo key and then tap on Next Botton as shown below on the screenshot.
This page comes up as shown below and I confirm and clicked on OK
Then comes the last one requesting for my Master Password as I provide in the field below then clicked on Sign In
After clicking on the sign In the page will load and refresh thereafter I can confirm if my transactions was successfully carried out. You can see the change from the figures from 10.002 to 7.502
Question5:
Do you know how to power up your steem?
Answer:
Yes! I know, if i want to convert my steem to steem power which is call powering up i can quickly use the same process I used above to transfer to another Steemit User Account, but at this point I won’t have to clicked on the Transfer Caption rather I will click on the Power Up Caption as shown below.
The next page will request the amount on Steem I want to Power Up then I provide by filling the field and clicking on the Power Up Botton see screenshot below.
This page then comes out for me to confirm and i did as well and clicked on the OK Botton. See screenshot below.
The last page will follow immediately requesting for my Master Password, then I provide it and then clicked on the Sign In Botton.
Finally, I will refresh the page and confirm my Powering Up by checking both my Steem Balance and my Steem Power Balance. As u can see below; the decrease in Steem and Increase on the Steem Power.
Conclusion:
With the above points and the screenshots steps, I want to believe that I have try my best to give every single detail of my Transfer and Power Up process. Likewise as also answering the question of Basic Security on Steemit.
Thank You!
