STEP 1 

Make sure you have a HIVE account. Your account can be an easy to remember name. Save your keys! Get a free one here: https://signup.hive.io/

STEP 2 

Download Hive Keychain Wallet and input your keys. This makes logging into any hive-engine DAPP super easy with a couple clicks. You can download a firefox/chrome addon or for mobile. If you use it on mobile, use the built-in browser. Download here: https://hive-keychain.com/

STEP 3

Now you need to get the main currency, Swap.Hive. I’ll list a few ways below.

  • From HIVE – Swap your Hive to Swap.Hive using tribaldex.com deposit function or beeswap. You can now purchase any hive-engine coin including DRIP. The link for beesweep to convert is: https://beeswap.dcity.io/convert/
  • From Binance/Mexc – Buy HIVE. Transfer your Hive to your HIVE wallet. Then follow instructions “From HIVE.”
  • From Coinbase – Buy USDC on Coinbase (no fee). Transfer to your coinbase wallet via Base chain (no fee). Now swap your USDC to one of three tokens using https://aerodrome.finance/ There are 3 hive-based liquidity pools set up on Aerodrome. You can purchase HIVE and bridge it to hive-engine using tribaldex. You can also purchase DEC or SPS which are Splinterlands tokens and bridge them in at Splinterlands.com. If you bridge in your SPS/DEC you can then send it to hive-engine from ingame and use beeswap/tribaldex to convert to swap.hive. If you purchased HIVE on Base then you can bridge that in with Tribaldex. It will immediately become swap.hive. The token contracts on Base/Aerodrome for these three tokens are here:
  • HIVE (base) – https://aerodrome.finance/ CA: 0x4cAa77c6E25e08647bC841529D6FA31b71c0DfFA
  • SPS (base) – https://aerodrome.finance/ CA: 0x578661e9a09eee6b2cd97d4ded1ccbae7b8516b9
  • From BSC(Binance Smart Chain) – You can use the DEX Pancakeswap to buy SPS or DEC and bridge into Splinterlands. Then follow directions from “From Coinbase”
  • SPS (bsc) – https://pancakeswap.finance/ CA: 0x1633b7157e7638C4d6593436111Bf125Ee74703F
  • DEC (bsc) – https://pancakeswap.finance/ CA: 0xE9D7023f2132D55cbd4Ee1f78273CB7a3e74F10A

STEP 4 

Now that you have Swap.Hive you can buy any tokens listed on hive-engine. To buy DRIP you can exchange your swap.hive here: https://tribaldex.com/swap?from=SWAP.HIVE&to=DRIP
