Hey everyone, quick update today for the simple VSC staking tool I shared a little while back.
Based on the utility and potential use cases, I've expanded it slightly to now support staking HBD to the VSC sidechain, in addition to the original HIVE staking functionality.
The interface update is minimal – there's now a simple dropdown menu where you can select either "HIVE" or "HBD" as the asset you want to stake.
Behind the scenes, selecting "HBD" ensures the correct custom_json
payload is generated and sent to Hive Keychain for your approval. As you can see here, when staking HBD, the ID is different showing vsc:stake_hdb
where the original was vsc.consensus_stake
and that the asset
field in the JSON data correctly specifies "hbd":
Just a small tweak to make the tool slightly more versatile for those interacting with the VSC sidechain ecosystem. The goal remains the same: provide an easy and safe way (using Keychain, never asking for keys directly) to stake assets.
You can find the updated tool here: Stake on VSC
Hope this added option is helpful!
As always,
