Keychain for Hive
This is literally the most used DAPP on the Hive blockchain, if I may speak for myself at least. Ever since it was introduced as a way to store your account keys safely without constantly having to copy paste them (with lots of room for errors!) I have been a satisfied user. It makes the whole Hive experience so much easier and less tricky for little mistakes in a copy and paste action.
The number of times that I had an error from Hive Keychain is to be counted on 1 hand and I've been pleasantly surprised by the new interface they recently released, it looks great!
Swap function
What I didn't notice yet myself was the swap function within the Hive keychain browser extension. I would not think about using Keychain for that, so knowing this is now added is just another bonus point for the team imo. It gives Hive users another option to swap their tokens fast and easy.
I tested the swap function today
To see how the experience would be and to share it with you, I've done the swap within my browser on desktop btw, but I assume the experience is the same if not similar on a mobile phone.
First, click on the keychain browser extension in the top of your browser to open it:
If you weren't logged in yet, of course you first need to fill in your password, which I will not show because that speaks for itself. I was already logged in and to test the swap function I clicked on swap at the right bottom as you can see above.
I wanted to round off my HBD to 10, so I swapped 2.410 HBD to Hive to have some liquid Hive. Once filled in, you click on swap.
Of course, you always have to confirm the swap, in case you made a mistake you can now cancel.
Once confirmed, you see the swap was successful and you can see the swap in your swap history.
For verification of this swap made within the Keychain browser extension, I include my swap ID: 5f4d33d3-b1e8-4162-99d5-0a0ce8b316f7
Fast and simple!
Honestly, this was a super smooth process, fast and very straightforward. Anyone can understand this. Let me know if you tried the swap function in Keychain and how you liked it. I'm also curious if it's just as fast on a mobile device.
Let me hear it in the comment section..
