For most EOS accounts (genesis and new), the active and owner keypair are identical. If you leave them identical that means you have to expose your private key of your Owner permission to a wallet at least once, to be able to import your accounts to a wallet. You then risk exposing your owner permission private key online and potentially lose control over your account. You don't have the need to expose your owner permission private key online as you can have the same control and permissions on your account using your active permission. Owner permission should only be used to change the owner/active permission keys pair.

Do I have to do something if my tokens are in the blockchain and I activated my account and performed all the actions requested by EOS? Nevertheless, ok and opinion, I need to do no more actions, I can safely withdraw them when I need to?
