A simple guide to always have access to your most valuable Information using steemit
Steemit runs on the blockchain, this means anything that happens here will be visible to anyone at anytime from anywhere
and we use exactly that to store our most precious account passwords or any other important Information you want.
Please follow exactly these Steps
1) download gpg4usb - https://www.gpg4usb.org/
after downloading open gpg4usb
2) generate a new key
go to Keys -> Manage Keys -> Keys -> generate new Key
use a long passphrase - the longer the better
for example: thesunismoonerthangreen78521 - or use a password generator
(Remember when selecting a Passphrase "the longer the better")
and safe this passwort- show it to know one- only you should have access to it--
hit ok
--it may take a few minutes till your key is generated--
if your key generation was successfull you will see your name for the key on the right hand side
3) type in your Account Information
anything Important that you want to keep save
4) select your key
5) hit encrypt
you should see now something like this
6)now highlight your ----pgp message----
(everything from ----begin message to end message--- )every "-" counts
go to edit -> remove spacing -> highlight and copy ----pgp message----
Note: its very important to first select "remove spacing" before posting that Message on steemit
7) go to steemit
submit a Story
make up a title name and in the tag section choose a tag of a topic noone barely reads
hit Post and thats it
your Information is now stored forever on the blockchain
all you need is your account name to access the post with your pgp encrypted message
copy the message and post it into gpg4usb and decrypt it with your password.
And there is all your Information!!!

this is a very basic guide i made anyone can use but it does not cover all about gpg4usb. So i recommend you to take some time and get familiar with gpg4usb and pgp encryption in general.
