Memo Key - This key is majorly for tranfering , decoding and decrypting of memo sent with funds transfers.

Owner Key - This is used to reset your steemit password if the need arises .Should be kept very safe.

Question 3: How do you plan to keep your master password?

Answer : I plan to store mine offline on my harddisk and also write it down on a paper , which I will also keep safely.

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