It's been a long time coming and involved a lot of coffee and edge-case hunting, but we can finally release the Beta version of our token swap feature!
For now, this feature is only available on Keychain Beta (a separate extension from Hive Keychain). We will release it into the main extension as soon as we're confident of its stability.
"A new swap service, big deal!" you're thinking.
Well, it is!
With Keychain Swap, you can not only swap HIVE to HBD, or DEC to SPS, but you can also make swaps involving multiple steps, between Hive Layer 1 and Hive Engine.
For example, you can swap HBD for SPS in a few seconds, while making sure you are using the best provider at each step:
After initiating the swap on Keychain, you are given an estimation of the resulting token amount and can choose your slippage.
/!\ The slippage is defined for each step, and if it is exceeded, the current token is returned to you. (eg. while doing DEC -> SWAP.HIVE -> SPS, it is possible that you receive SWAP.HIVE if the price of SPS moved out of your slippage range.) Slippage is enforced within the broadcast for every step, except for buys/sells on the Hive-Engine internal market because that function does not exist. Instead, we make a new estimation just before making the order. It is thus possible, but unlikely to exceed the slippage. We will work to add this feature to Hive-Engine market operations in the future.

You can follow each step from the swap history page, as well as its overall status.
A simple swap takes only a few seconds, while a more complex one (eg. HBD to SPS) can take up to 30 seconds to complete all the steps.
We've done tons of tests and kept improving the service for months. That being said, the final test is being actually used by the community.
For this, you need to download a separate extension that we use to release Beta versions:
