Achievement 2 @traderpaw|| Task : Basic Security on Steem mentored by @cryptokannon
Aloha miloves! 😘
Today, allow me to walk you through with my #achievement2 task verification by answering some of the important questions for me to pass the verification.
Question 1: Have you retrieve all your keys on steemit?
YES. I did able to retrieve all the keys of my steemit account which of the following are: posting key, active key, owner key, memo key, master key, as well as the TRX Account Private Key. It can also be found in your steemit wallet under keys and permissions tab.
Question2: Do you know each of these key functions and restrictions?
YES. I did lot of readings and understanding the functions and restrictions of these keys. Here are some of the steemians; @steemitblog, @
cryptokannon and @jes88 publish an article that I found in steemit that help me widen my thoughts about its functions and restrictions.
It is also stated in your steemit wallet of how are you going to use each keys and where the keys are applicable. Such as:
PostingKey
Use your posting key when logging into your account. It is used for social networking actions, like posting, engaging with other steemians, upvoting and resteeming. It has limited set of permissions and can not be used to transfer any coin, token or dollars from your wallet.
ACTIVE KEY
It is a much higher set of permissions than posting key. This key is used to any monetary - related actions to your wallet, either transferring to an exchange wallet, another steemit wallet and powering up your account. "BE CAUTIOUS" when using this key.
OWNER KEY
This key allows you to change other keys as well as retrieve your account when something goes wrong. This should not be and will never be shared by anyone as well as the other keys. It is the most important key and should be stored safely.
MEMO KEY
It is the key used for decrypting and encrypting messages and it is not that used very often.
Question 3: How do you plan to keep your master password?
After downloading my steemit keys, I securely save it to my G - Drive, Phone, Laptop and even copied in a word file and have it printed and keep it together with my pertinent papers at home.
Question 4: Do you know how to transfer your steem token to another steem user account?
YES. By asking help from my steemian friends @bisayakalog and @georgie84. I was able to transfer steem token to another steem user account. Transferring steem token to another steem user account simply go to your steemit wallet under STEEM go to transfer, input the other user account, confirm vesting, input your active key and right there and then the steem goes to the steemit wallet of the other steemians account.
Question 5: Do you know how to power up your STEEM?
YES. I do know how to power up my steem. Go to your steemit wallet, under STEEM go to power up, transfer steem to your account, confirm vesting, input your active key and right there and then the steem goes to your STEEM POWER.
