Question 1

Have you retrieve all your keys on steemit?

Answer: Yes, Have downloaded all my keys and keep it safe offline.

Question2
Do you know each of these key functions and restrictions?

Answer: Yes,
Posting key: is use to login Steemit account anytime. It allow Steemit account to post, comment, edit, vote , follow or mute other accounts.
Active Key: This is use for fund transfer, power up or down transaction, profile updating and converting steem dollars.
Memo key: This key is used for encrypting and decrypting memos when transferring fund. To encrypt a memo, I will use the pound/#sign before it.
Owner Key: it is the most powerful key because it can change any key of the account. It is not to be use always but only when necessary. Example: When a Steemit user want to recover a compromised account.
Master Key: It used to generate all other keys. It is the key any User get once they signed up in Steemit. I should share to where

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

Answer: I downloaded, printed it out and keep in my save box.. I also save it in my Gmail and flash drive.

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

Answer: Yes,
I signed into my steem wallet using my private active Key, then clicked on steem, five options appeared (i.e, Transfer, Transfer saving, Power up, Trade and Market) I quickly clicked on "Transfer" , it redirected me to a page where my username, the receiver's username , the amount of steem I'm transferring and memo were required. I inputted everything that was required and I clicked "next", it redirected me to transfer confirmation page, I confirmed the transfer and clicked "ok", another page appeared. This page required with my Active or Owner key or Master password in other for the transfer to be completed. As soon as I input the key and click "OK" my steem will automatically will be transfer to the receiver account.

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

Answer: Yes,
To power up my steem, I will go to my wallet and first click on the Dropbox, then choose power up. The next screen will ask how much liquid steem I want to power up, I will either input the amount and choose to power the whole, then I click power up. Few seconds my steem power will increase.
