Hive Keychain: Secure Hive Wallet Extension
Hive Keychain is a secure extension for accessing Hive-enabled distributed applications, or "dApps," in your Chromium or Firefox browser. Developed by Hive Keychain Ltd., this free extension injects the Hive Keychain API into every website's javascript context, allowing dApps to read from the blockchain.
One of the main features of Hive Keychain is the ability for users to create and manage their own identities. This ensures a secure interface when a dApp wants to perform a transaction and write to the blockchain. Users can review the transaction before approving or rejecting it, providing an added layer of security.
As Hive Keychain adds functionality to the normal browser context, it requires permission to read and write to any webpage. However, users can easily view the source code of Hive Keychain on Github, providing transparency and peace of mind.
With Hive Keychain, users can confidently access Hive-enabled dApps and manage their transactions securely within their preferred browser.
