How to Encrypt Your Steemit Memo Messages
How to Encrypt Your Private Wallet Memos
Today's video will be sort of an addon to yesterday's review of Steem.chat. Although Steem.chat is a great way to get in touch with Steemit users, there are some concerns about spam messages, or even worse, that you're not talking to who you think you are. Thanks to @newageinv for brining up this point.
Well, there's always the ole trusty wallet memos, and today I'll show you how to send a memo and encrypt it so that only you and the receiver can read it! It's really very simple.
The Results
Here's the way the unencrypted and encrypted messages will appear from the outside world...
Only the user receiving the transaction has the power to unlock the memo and they do this by logging in with their Memo Key.

I just found this post randomly.
Question:
What is the sense of the memokey?
According to Steemit.com's FAQ I read that currently the memo key is not used. I assumed it was for unlocking encrypted memos but apparently you need to log in with the Active key to see those messages.

I have a question regarding your upvoting bot. It says that ROI is -10%. Does it mean that you regain 90% what you have paid?
Hi @dogimage, great question. This means that it will not accept bids if the ROI for the round goes into the negative by 10%. So yes, you should receive no less than 90% of what you paid for the upvote.. but usually you'll see a positive ROI.
Is is calculated before or after curation reward? I am looking for reliable bot voter but most of them gives loss. What are your brackets and median for upvote?
After curation rewards. And you can check all of the stats for my bot on https://steembottracker.com. They have a connection to my bot API which shows you the current and previous voting rounds.
One suggestion I might give you, is to not solely use upvote bots for profit. Think of them as a promotional tool to boost your post into the Hot or Trending sections and to get more viewership. 👍
I am not taking about earning, but rather securing value. Real money today means more than the same value in a week, and crypto markets are dynamic. Anyway thank you for such detailed information
hellow @brandonfrye
thanks a lot for sharing your valuable post with us..
upvoted & @resteemed
Thank you so much for sharing this info, it's been very helpful. Usually when we hear about encryption, we think of something difficult, but this is not the case. To your success.
That's true.. this is really easy. Just log in with your active key and there it is! :)
LOL That is slick. Never knew we could do that. Great way to connect with people without being 'spammy'. Appreciate the tips man, great info.
I actually learned this just a couple of weeks ago myself. Pretty cool if you need to send something private to a Steemit user and know nobody else will see it. :)
Thank you @brandonfrye. That's an awesome feature. I hope it really works. I'm curious about your reply at @prydefoltz comment.
And thank you so much for your Upvote :)
You're very welcome! And it looks like she got it to show but there was a delay. We're having some major issues at the moment with Steemit's servers and the Wallet pages so today probably wasn't the best day to show this lol

You're always the first guy I look for when I'm scrolling through my steemit feed - because I learn something new everyday. I appreciate you teaching me the ways of "Steemit" lol. Take care.
