Question 1: Have you retrieved all your keys on steemit?
My answer: Yes, I am quite sure that I have retrieved all the keys. It is very important to retrieve all keys on the Steemit platform. This ensures the security of my account and prevents unauthorised transactions and actions from occurring. Retrieving all keys can be done by going to my account settings page, finding it in the "Key Management" section and clicking the "Show Secrets" button.

Question 2: Are you aware of these key features and restrictions?
My answer: As a new user of Steemit it is important to know the key features and limitations of the platform. The following is my summary and generalisation of the key features and limitations of the Steemit platform.

1. Creating and publishing content: Steemit allows users to create and publish various forms of content, including articles, images, videos, etc. Users can build their own brand on the platform and share their knowledge, experiences and opinions.
2. Interact with other users: Steemit offers commenting and liking features that allow users to interact, communicate and build social networks with other users.
3. Earn rewards: The Steemit platform gives users rewards for creating, interacting and participating in the governance of the platform. Users can earn rewards for posting content, likes, comments and other activities, which can be converted into Steem tokens or sold through trading.
4. Steem Power can be used to increase influence and rewards: Steem Power is an internal token of the Steemit platform that can be used to increase users' influence and rewards on the platform; the more Steem Power you have, the more rewards your likes and comments will generate.
5. Understand the Steemit community rules: The Steemit platform has a set of community rules designed to maintain stability and order on the platform. These rules include not allowing malicious, fraudulent, pornographic and copyright infringing content to be posted, and not allowing malicious attacks on other users. Violation of these rules may result in the banning of accounts.
6. Limiting user permissions: Some features and permissions on the Steemit platform are based on the user's Steem Power value. A low Steem Power value will limit some of the features and permissions available to users, such as the inability to earn higher rewards, initiate community proposals, etc.
7. Transaction fees: Transfers, power-ups and transactions on the Steemit platform are subject to a fee that will be deducted from the user's account balance.
8. Understanding the key features and restrictions of the Steemit platform is important for my participation and use to help me have a better experience and be rewarded on the platform. At the same time, adhering to the platform's rules and restrictions is one of the most important measures to keep your account safe and stable.

Question 3: How do you plan to keep your Master Password?
My answer: The Master Password is the most important security for my Steemit account, so it is vital that I protect my Master Password. Here are some ways I can think of to protect my master password.

1. Use a strong password that contains a combination of numbers, letters and symbols.
2. Don't store or share your master password anywhere.
3. Change my password regularly.
4. Enable double authentication to improve security.

Question 4: Do you know how to transfer a Steem token to another Steem user account?
My answer: To transfer a Steem token to another Steem user account, I need to perform the following steps.

1. Log in to the Steemit platform and click on the wallet icon in the top right corner.
2. On the wallet page, find the "Transfer" option and enter the number of Steem tokens to be sent and the account name of the receiving user.
3. Confirm the transaction details and enter your account master password to complete the transfer.

Question 5: Do you know how to power your STEEM?
My answer: Provisioning STEEM with electricity is the process of converting Steem tokens into Steem Power, which increases your influence and rewards in the Steemit community. Here are some steps I have summarised.

1. Log in to the Steemit platform and click on the wallet icon in the top right corner.
2. On the wallet page, find the "Power" option and enter the number of Steem tokens you want to power.

Question 6: What is the use of my different keys?
My answer: On the Steemit platform, different keys serve different purposes, here is a brief summary of some of the common key types and their functions.

1. Master Password: The Master Password is the highest authority key for your account on the Steemit platform and can be used to manage all operations on your account, including changing other keys, transferring funds, deleting accounts, etc. The Master Password is therefore the most important factor in the security of your account and should be kept secure and changed regularly.
2. Active Key: The Active Key is the next highest privilege key for Steemit accounts and can be used for sensitive actions on the account, such as posting and editing posts, liking and commenting, transferring funds, etc. However, an Active Key cannot be used to change other keys or delete accounts.
3. Posting Key: A Posting Key is a low privilege key for Steemit accounts and can be used for everyday operations such as posting and editing posts, liking and commenting. Unlike active keys, mobile keys cannot be used to transfer funds or change other keys.
4. Sealed Key (Memo Key): A sealed key is a key used by Steemit accounts to encrypt private messages, such as private messages and transfer notes. A sealed key can be changed in a randomly generated way, but does not affect the functionality of other keys.
5. Understanding and managing the different types of keys can help you to better protect the security and privacy of your account, as well as to better control the operations and risks of your account. It is important that you keep and back up your own keys, change your passwords regularly and avoid using them on insecure networks or devices.

Question 7: How much do you know about the basics of the Steem platform?
My answer: The Steemit platform is a blockchain technology-based social media platform designed to enable a decentralised social media ecosystem by incentivising users to create quality content, interact and participate in governance for the platform. Here are some of the basics of the Steemit platform that I have learnt to summarise.

1. Blockchain technology: The Steemit platform is built on blockchain technology, which means that all data and transactions are recorded on the blockchain, ensuring data security and decentralisation.
2. Steem Token: The Steemit platform has an internal token called Steem, which is the base currency for transactions and rewards on the platform. Users can earn Steem by posting content, liking, commenting and other activities, as well as by buying or trading other cryptocurrencies.
3. Steem Power: Steem Power is another token of the Steemit platform and is a representation of a user's equity on the platform that can be used to increase their influence and rewards. the more Steem Power a user has, the more rewards will be generated from their likes and comments.
4. Power: Power is the process of converting Steem into Steem Power, which can be used to increase a user's reach and rewards. Once powered, users will not be able to transfer or trade Steem immediately, but can convert it to Steem by gradually de-powering it.
5. Community rules: The Steemit platform has a set of community rules that include not allowing malicious, fraudulent, pornographic and copyright infringing content to be posted or malicious attacks on other users. Violation of these rules may result in account banning.

   Community governance: The Steemit platform uses a decentralised community governance model that allows users to vote on decisions and improvements to the platform, such as updating the algorithm and changing community rules.

Understanding the basics of the Steemit platform can help users better engage and use the platform, leading to a better experience and rewards.
