Question 1

Have you retrieve all your keys on steemit?

Yes I have retrieved all of my keys on steemit and I have securely stored it on my computer offline and also I have stored all of the keys on google drive so if I lost access to my computer or windows corrupt or any other error I will still have access to all my steemit keys.

Question 2

Do you know each of these key functions and restrictions?

There are 4 main keys which everyone should know about:

Posting Key
The posting key is used to post, comment, edit, vote, resteem, and follow or mute other accounts. Most users are going to log into Steemit every day with the posting key.

Active Key
The active key is meant for tasks such as transferring funds, power up/down transactions, converting Steem Dollars, updating profile details and avatars, and placing a market order.
The Active key can do everything on the Steemit account, but the only restriction is that it can't change the Owner key.

Owner Key
The owner key is the most powerful key because it can change any key of the account, including the owner key. It is usually meant to be stored offline and only used when recovering an account.

Memo Key
The Memo key is used for encrypting and decrypting memos when transferring funds to an account. In order to encrypt a memo, use the pound # sign before it.

Question 3

How do you plan to keep your master password?

I have written my master password on a piece of paper and also have sent it to some contacts in case anything goes wrong with my account I can immediately recover the account or can change my keys

Question 4

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

To send STEEM or Steem Dollar (SBD) to another user:
