Change the following line:

`steem = Steem(wif="5yourpostingkeyhere")`

to

`steem = Steem(wif=os.environ['WIF_POSTING'])`

Then, before you run the script, in the terminal, set the following environment variable:

`export WIF_POSTING='5KDWWnSQiPtVhzCquaBWhbWS8UNoAkeNuuCm8uJJE6EiSqt514p'`

(or whatever your WIF is, the above example is a worthless random key)

then run the script as normal.  It will pick up the posting key from your `WIF_POSTING` environment variable.  Now you can save your code on GitHub or wherever else safely. :)

Actually, since the latest release of python-steem, the library also contains a wallet that can be managed through `piston`.
Just import your keys with
```
piston addkeys
```
and use
```python
from steem import Steem
```

Since wif keys are stored encrypted, you will be asked to provide the password when voting. If you want to unlock the wallet from script, you can use the `UNLOCK` environmental variable:
```
UNLOCK="wallet-passphrase" python3 bot.py
