Achievement 2: Basic Security on Steemit
Hello world! So right after my introductory post, I read up the beginners guide. I saw a lot to do with security keys, Mehnnn it felt like I was a millionaire xD.
In all, I must say, I'm really impressed with steemit security.
For all the questions
- "Have you retrieved all your keys?"
Yes I have. Well this was very simple for me, to do this you must click on the "keys and permissions" in your steem wallet. You can use your master key to accessed your wallet.
- "Do you know each of the keys functions?"
I do know.
Owner Key: Well, this is the most important key after the master password though. It can be used for anything except creating memos. The key can also be used to recover stolen accounts and for changing other keys.
Active Key: This one can be used for trading on the international market, also transactional purposes from your account.
Posting Key: The posting key should be one of the least confidential. It can't make changes to anything in you account.
Memo keys: It used for handling private messages. Although, from what I read, decrypted private messaging isn't yet on the platform to use this key.
"How do you plan to keep your master password?"
Well, since I can't trust my mind to cram the password. I have already stored it in an encrypted file on my system and on an old hard drive of mine. I also wrote it up in a patternlike way in a jotter I never carry around."Do you know how to transfer your Steem token to another Steem user account?"
Click on "wallet" from your profile
Click on your Steem balance and click "transfer" from the drop down menu
When the new page load up, fill the transfer details and click "next".
- "Do you know how to power up your Steem?"
Yes I do
from your wallet, click on Steem balance. From the drop down menu, click "power up'
From the next page, fill in the amount thenw click power up. Then we are done.
Well, this is what I know from the few days I've been on this platform but I'm still open to learn more.
