Hello steemians....
My name is onicharbor victor, I am new to this platform , I completed my achievement1 task yesterday. It took some time to make my achievement2 post, this is because I needed to fully understand the basic security of Steemit before making my post. Thanks to @cryptokannon for the mentorship on achievement2 on the newcomers community.
