Getting Tokens

Markets on HivePredict can be denominated in HIVE, HBD, or any supported Hive Engine token. You need the specific token a market requires in order to place a prediction.

HIVE

HIVE is listed on several cryptocurrency exchanges. Purchase HIVE and withdraw it to your Hive wallet address (your Hive username). You can also earn HIVE by posting content and curating on platforms like PeakD, Ecency, and Hive.blog.

HBD (Hive Backed Dollars)

HBD is Hive’s stablecoin, pegged to approximately 1 USD. Some markets use HBD for price stability.

Hive Engine Tokens

Markets can also use Hive Engine tokens like LEO, SPS, and others. These are second-layer tokens on the Hive blockchain.

dSwap Auto-Swap

If a market requires a Hive Engine token you don’t hold, HivePredict can automatically swap HIVE to the required token using dSwap (powered by Hive Keychain). When you place a prediction and don’t have enough of the required token, you’ll be prompted to swap HIVE for it. The platform finds the optimal swap route and handles everything through Hive Keychain.

dSwap requires Hive Keychain and is not available when authenticated via HiveSigner.
