in hive-172186 •  4 years ago 

Hello guys,

This is @dilshan96 and this is my achievement 2 . first of all, I want to thanks everyone for your help. and I'll continue to thank @randulakoralage for guiding me to complete this task and also thankful for the @steemingcurator @cryptokannon for the guidance.

Security is the most important thing in life when we consider about steemit it is same, when we are browsing the internet we are not safe at all, our data can be stolen by the hackers for this security is a priority when you are browsing the internet, in steemit they provide good security and they provide different security keys for the separate actions Eg: posting key, master key, private key, etc.

Different keys and their functions.

Master Password

Used to generate all other keys.
Used to recover the steemit account.

Owner Key

Owner key generates by a master password, owner key used to generate other keys, and can be used to retrieve locked or compromised accounts.

Active Key

This is used for all the actions in the wallet (Convert SBD, transfer steem, etc.) This can be changed using the owner key

Posting key

Posting key is used for all the general works in the steemit eg: Publish post, edit a post, resteem post, follow/unfollow

Memo Key

Memo key used for the encryption and decryption of memos.

All the keys are important and we have to put those keys in a safe place personally put those things in my drive with password protection. Due to any reason, we are not supposed to hand over those keys to anyone. especially master key it is the most important key.

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

Steem transfer to a friend is a very simple process, go to wallet in the drop down menu, then go to the transfer, and a new window will pop up and type the username of the receiver and amount and memo key and click the next then paste active key for complete the transaction.

Do you know how to power up your STEEM?

In the wallet, the power-up is done by clicking on the steem arrow, select the power-up option and the amount to power up, and then paste the active key for power-up.

Thank You!
