Hive Keychain 1.8.3

Latest updates

  • Refactored the code to use less permissions.
  • Better error handling for memo encryption.
  • Futureproofed API calls to Bittrex by moving them to keychain-api backend. This is to protect from an incoming Chrome update that would cause CORS errors.
  • Enable memo encryption for generic broadcasts. This was necessary for some projects, including @arcange's Account Recovery.
  • Keychainify now working on Hive Keychain (big thanks to @quochuy).If enabled in the settings, every transfer, delegation or witness vote tab opened on HiveSigner will trigger a similar request on Hive Keychain. For now this will only work if the broadcasting account is specified on HiveSigner. In the future, we will add a dropdown to let you chose the account performing the actions.

About the Chrome Store

I have been putting a lot of energy in trying to get our extension listed on Chrome Store, reduced drastically the number of permissions necessary for the extension to respect Google policies, and it still gets rejected every time.
The review process takes over a week, and always end up with a generic refusal email with no further information on what causes the rejection. The email says that the PO can answer the email to request further information, which I've done multiple time, only to receive the same email again.
This is very frustrating but we will not give up and will keep doing our best to get it listed. In the meantime, you can install Keychain locally or via Firefox Add-Ons Store.

Firefox extension

Get the latest version of Hive Keychain on the FF Add-Ons Store.
It will update by itself

Local installation or update

  • Export your keys (from settings)
  • If you have a previous local version of Hive Keychain, uninstall it from your extension manager.
  • Clone the repository from Github
  • Right click on any existing extension > Manage my extensions.
  • Then activate developer mode.
  • Then Load Unpacked and select the folder you ve unzipped.
  • Import your keys (use the same master password)

We will post again to announce when the extension makes it to the store.

Info for devs

Once the extension installed you can make any kind of requests that were available on Steem Keychain. For this you just need to:

  • Replace window.steem_keychain by window.hive_keychain
  • Replace STEEM, SBD and SP by HIVE, HBD and HP
  • Check out the example folder
