Great work as usual. Thanks for making HIVE a better place to live. Decentralization, here we go!!

Thanks Marky

Thanks! I was looking for that!

Thanks for the tutorial @themarkymark!

Is there a way to use keychain with ios?

peakd bookmarked for when people ask how.

For Firefox, you need to unzip the compressed file, select all the files that are inside the folder, and recompress. Otherwise Firefox is too dumb to find the manifest :P

Or you could change the node and interact with Steem Keychain.

Thanks @themarkymark for this post.  Let the bees keep making honey in the HIVE. 

You rock, @themarkymark for HIVE witness ;)

Hive on! 
Rocking the chain!

Thanks for the tutorial. Will do when I'm not so wiped tomorrow :-)

Thank you! It worked out for me!

Thanks TMM. Viva day one hive!

Wow! Thanks! I'm gonna try this right now!

@themarkymark  Thank you so much for this great post you have. I manage to add the extension on chrome. I face problem on login. I use my username from steemit or shall I say from #hive then use my posting key to login into the keychain.  it does not work.. or am I doing the wrong way.. I  am blur ...

Thanks, was not expecting it to be that easy. 

Thanks a lot for your instructions. It's working :)

Ready downloaded and installed!! thanks you are a sun!!
Unfortunately I registered early with the keychain and my publication was published on steemit and not hive! It was the biggest screw-up of my day!

Love the new import/export feature. Maybe add that to the "steem" version to make the process of upgrading even easier?

Also, you can change the preferences in the keychain to a different node to work as Hive wallet I was instructed. Works.

Thanks for this tutorial, the screenshots are very helpful.

Thanks for this. I couldn't figure it out, and working on getting it installed now!

I did everything as per the instructions, but it failed.
After much experimenting, I discovered that I needed to CLOSE the browser and reopen it before the changes took effect. After that, everything worked fine. Before that, the Steem keychain kept loading instead of the Hive keychain.

I made a tutorial of what I discovered, not knowing that you had made one. (I just found yours now.) You may wish to add the browser re-boot requirement to your own tutorial since it gets more views than mine.

Thanks Marty ❤️

Thanks, much appreciated.

>If you want to use Keychain for Hive, you will need the updated version. The Hive version is awaiting publishing in the Google Chrome Web Store. Normally this takes around an hour but recently Google has extended these times to as long as a week.

Thanks for the heads up.  I think I'll just wait.

Thanks for the heads up mate! I logged in using another option but will download hivechain later. Good to see you around here. 

My first vote and comment in Hive!.Thanks for this helpful post man.

Thank you! Was tearing my hair out trying to work out how to install the extension manually. 😅 Dev mode was the answer!

Cheers.

Thanks for this and REHIVE 🐝😎🐝

Thank you for the step by step instructions. I had visited the GitHub page multiple times but could not find the Hive Keychain.

But I have to say that the keychain crashes like a pork chop, and it will not allow me to submit my username and key. It is still buggy.

When will the FireFox version be available?

Tks !

Good to hear from you. Good news as well. Welcome to the #newhive

For people who are looking at this in the future, the above process is no longer necessary. Hive keychain has been added to the google and firefox extension libraries.

chrome: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hive-keychain/jcacnejopjdphbnjgfaaobbfafkihpep
firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/hive-keychain/

I just commented via Peakd using Hive Keychain! And I VOTED YOU! Amazing post @themarkymark you are the best!#@#!!

Ahh Thanks for this. I accidentally used the old keychain on hive and it posted to the old Steem chain. Doh!

@themarkymark Right, I need some advice here and please be patient with an old man.
I logged into peakd and placed my post via the keychain on the page.
Now why would I need another installed keychain?

Thank you for the information.  It took a little while to make it work but I did.  

Now can anyone explain how I can undelegate those who do not plan on working on Hive?  I can handle steem, but  I have at least 33% of delegations I want to take back on hive.  There may be more but I would like this first batch (around 25,000 Hive back for my own curations.

Thank you for providing this valuable "how to" @themarkymark.  I know much of this "move" was done in a heated rush, so I am being patient.  Being able to power up, vote for Witnesses and such, are vital to moving forward.  So very timely, waking up this morning to find this post.

I've long used SteemPeak and KeyChain.  So ...  Once I follow your instructions, I will hopefully be "off to the races" with Peakd and Hive Keychain! 👍
