As part of my training series/onboarding I'm working on I figured this would be the best spot to include this information.
This training is done using BRAVE or Google Chrome and requires a Extension called Hive Keychain

IMPORTANT Always backup your keys in more than one secure place

  • Your hard drive
  • On a thumb drive
  • Write it down and put it in a safe
  • Engrave it into your arm - NAH joking
    But you get the idea. You're keys are what give you access to everything on your account including powering up your hive, logging into your account, interacting with your account and so much more.

YOUR KEYS CAN NOT BE RECOVERED!

    If you don't see it click on the puzzle like image and then select it there represented by the 1 tag in the image below

  2. Create your password and REMEMBER IT + write it down along with your keys from before
    From here it will ask you to setup using
    Use Keys/PWD
    Use Authorized Account
    Import Keys

In this case we will click on USE KEYS/PWD

  1. Here you will see Username and Private Key entries

  • Your Username is your LEOFINANCE username from the account you just created
  • Your Password is the last line of the document you download it will read as
    "password": "THIS IS THE PASSWORD AREA" Copy the numbers and letters within the " " and paste them into your private key on the Hive Keychain and click on Import Keys

Doing this now allows you to connect into Hive and other tokens, apps and so forth on the Hive network.

  2. Remember only financial, crypto, stocks and investing should be posted on LeoFinance and nothing else. If you wish to post about something else do so on your Hive Account at hive.blog which you can now login to with your Hive keychain

Thanks! I was really thinking about how to help someone to make an account in Hive and Leo, I didn't know exactly all the steps anymore.

A very helpful post for recruiting. It's very good if you put your marketing knowledge at our disposal, I know you have it. Years ago I was enrolled in at least one program of yours but I don't remember its name now... I was in so many programs then!

Thanks! Feel free to use it as a reference point for others you bring in. There's really nothing that links to me in it besides when I mention my username.

So, is Leo built on top of HIve? I have LEO tokens I can see here on Leo.Finance but I've signed in with my metamask here. Is that a secure way to do it?

Additionally, when I went to download my keys from Leo, it made me sign a smart contract on mm, is that normal?

LEO token is that of LeoFinance.io you'll login there the same as you do with your Hive account. I recommend getting Hive Keychain. It's a community/tribe token that is built on top of the Hive blockchain.
