ACHIEVEMENT 2: BASIC SECURITY ON STEEM BY @sikha12

How are you all doing? Seems everyone is doing well here. After completing my achievement1 task successfully and receiving the tag of active newcomer I am here with my achievement 2 task of basic security.

Slowly and gradually I am learning the art of creating good contents on this platform.

Having read and understood the questions and answers of achievement 2 about the security of keys I am now here to answer the questions of the same.

Question 1: Have you retrieved all your keys on steemit?

Yes I have retrieved all the keys and kept them safely by saving them in the pdf form . I have kept them not only in my phone but also in my laptop keeping in mind that once the key is lost we cannot find the same.

Question 2: Do you know each of these key functions and restrictions?

By reading the lessons explained in the post of achievement 2 I know the functions of all the keys and passwords of Steemit.

The functions of all the keys are as follows as:

Posting Key : This key is used for posting, commenting, voting or editing a post. With the help of posting key we login to the Steemit Account. Resteeming a post is also done with the help of this key.

Active Key : The main task of transferring funds, powering up or down, voting the witness . Moreover One can also convert Steem Dollars to Steem with the help of Active key. So we can say that Active key is the backbone of Steemit Account.

Memo Key: This key is used for encryption and decryption of memos while transferring the funds . So this is the function of memo keys.

Owner Key: Owner Key being the most powerful key is actually used when necessary. This key is used for resetting the password as with the help of this key one can change any key of the steem account.

Question 3

How do you plan to keep your master password?

I will keep my master password very safely in hardcopy and soft copy both because master password is the main key of all the other keys and if someone finds my master password they can easily manipulate my account.

Question 4: Do you know how to transfer your steem token to another steem user account?

Answer: yes definitely I know to transfer my steem token to another another steemian's account. Below are the following steps with the help of which one can transfer steems to another account.

Step1. We need to login to steemit wallet for performing this transfer task. For logging in to the wallet we need our Active key

Step 2 click on the transfer option as shown in the pic below

Once you click transfer you need to enter the name of the steem account you want to transfer and also the amount of steem.

Step 3 : next click on Ok to send the steem

Once you click Ok your steem will be sent to the account which you want to send the amount at.
And finally you can view the same in your transaction history given below.

Question 5: Do you know how to power up your STEEM??

Yes having learnt the lesson from the guidance post for achievement 2 the process of powering up is known by me. In the steps below I will elaborate the process of powering up:

Step 1 : login to the Steemit wallet with the help of private active Key and then choose the amount of steems you want to power up

Step 2: Click on power up and you will get to see a page of which the image is given below :

(select Ok)

Click on Ok to power up your steem. Here for the demo I have powered up 4 steems. Once you power up the steem your liquid steems will get converted into steempower.

So this is my achievement 2 post and I hope I have answered all the questions asked above. Please comment your views in the comment section

Thankyou and Namaste Friends!
