=== Hive Keychain ===

* Download Hive Keychain (browser extension)
* Log in with your '''Active Key''' (required to sign the ~3 HIVE account creation fee)
* Click the ☰ (top left) → '''Accounts''' → '''Create Account'''
* Enter a username

If the username is available, you will proceed to the next stage where your key pairs are shown.

'''Important:'''
When Hive Keychain is open on the key display screen, clicking outside the extension (e.g. to open a text editor) may close it. If this happens before saving, you will lose the generated keys and must restart the process.

* As soon as the keys are shown:
** Click '''Copy'''
** Tick all confirmation boxes
** Click '''Copy''' again to be safe
* Click '''Create''' to finalize the account
* Immediately paste your keys into a text file and back them up securely

And that's it — you have created a new Hive account.
