Good evening steemians. Having done my introductory post, I want to deliberate on the 5 permission keys we have in steemit and their functions. When I got signed up and was given an encryption key, I found it strange because other normal sites have space for personal password. These encryption keys have made it impossible for unauthorized users to access one's account or wallet. It's just so wonderful..

Question 1

Have you retrieved your steemit keys?

Ans: Yes I have done it. I downloaded it in the PDF form so it will be easier for me to access it and difficult to lose it.
I've also sent it to a few trusted people incase my phone gets stolen or something like that

Question 2

Do you know each of these keys functions?

Ans: Yes, and these are the functions:

• Master key: It is used to generate all other keys .

• Posting key: It is used to log into your steemit account and performing some social networking functions. It can also be used for commenting, upvoting, etc

• Active key: It is basically used for transactions and so it must be protected properly.

• Owner key: Used for recovering compromised accounts

• Memo key: For encrypting (securing) and decrypting meesages, memos and transactions.

Question 3

How do you plan to save your master password?

Ans: I planned to save my master password in my Google drive so I can always access it even if I lose my phone...

Question 4

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

Ans: Yes , and this is how I did it

• I went to my wallet first of all and logge in with my username and posting key.

• After logging in, I clicked the drop down arrow close to my steem and then choose transfer.

• I then inserted the user I want to transfer to and then the amount.

• I then click on okay and confirm the details before putting my active key to process it.

Question 5

Do you know how to power up liquid steem.?
Ans: Yes I know and I powered up mine to support the community and also become a member of #club5050.

I went to my wallet and click the drop down arrow.....
