**[Hive](https://hive.io/)** is a **Delegate Proof of Stake** (DPOS) blockchain in which lives a large ecosystem of projects, applications, tools, games and communities that is constantly evolving and expanding. When you create a **Hive account** you receive **5 passwords/keys** that have **utilities** and **different functions**. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/libertycrypto27/23xAwaCpbQcQksjpUT4FUFg1oVTvGfBknsCch5oVBz5yc4wJViqCAHdGCvF22Bqy9aXa9.png) - **Posting Key**: is the key you will use most frequently and is used to post, comment and vote on a post on Hive and is also the key you will use most frequently to log in and perform major actions in front ends and applications, games and tools. - **Active Key**: has additional permissions than the posting key and is needed to complete monetary operations such as transferring and exchanging tokens or transferring and exchanging NFTs. - **Owner Key**: is the key that allows you to change all other passwords. - **Memo Key**: is the key that allows you to encrypt and decrypt messages sent to and from your account. - **Master Password**: starting with the Master Password you can derive all other passwords. **On Hive the management and security of passwords is completely up to the user who is solely responsible!** Yesterday @sissim72 contacted me on Telegram and asked for help to change her Hive passwords because she lost an agenda in which she had written her passwords and because she lost the Master Password but has the other private keys.
