Moving SWAP.BLURT to BLURTWALLET from HIVE-ENGINE
Each action described below is valid at the moment of the publication of the post only. Don’t perform them, if you don’t well know and/or trust the described platforms.
Hello!
Today I created a cover for a post I thought about a few days ago when I transferred BLURT tokens purchased on the Hive Engine platform to my Blurtwallet. I decided to create a kind of tutorial where I show this process step by step, using simple explanations and some screenshots captured along the way. In this case, I am mainly addressing those who already have an account on the Hive blockchain and want to purchase some BLURT tokens, or have already purchased them and are wondering:
How do I move them to my Blurtwallet?
For this post, I used my own accounts and referenced specific platforms. However, I invite you to be careful: over time, this procedure may undergo changes or may no longer be valid. Don’t jeopardize your tokens if you are unsure, because interacting with blockchains without certainty could result in the total loss of your tokens.
Getting to the focal point, to move your BLURTs like this, you will need:
- have an account on the Hive blockchain
- have a Hive Keychain extension installed on your browser
- have an account on the Blurt blockchain
- interact with the Hive Engine platform
- interact with the Blurtwallet platform.
Let’s look specifically at the process.
STEP by STEP
Let’s connect to the https://hive-engine.com website and log in. In the “Wallet” area (on which we will have to click) we will find the list of tokens we own. The BLURT tokens are present here in the form of a SWAP.BLURT, of which I had bought a certain amount for several weeks: around 2000 in total.
The first step is to click on the “Withdraw” item at the top on your right, as indicated by the blue-white arrow in the image below.
Once clicked, a window will open, notifying you of the fees you have to pay for the token transfer. Below, is a box where you will have to type the name of the token to search for it among those available.
Type “Blurt” in whole or in part, and you should see the BLURT token name below it. This means that Hive Engine allows you to transfer your BLURT tokens. Left-click on the BLURT text that appears.
A new window will open with various information. Be careful to read them all, as there may be changes in times, taxes, etc.
I have highlighted with blue-white arrows two boxes that you will have to fill in: in the first (“Withdraw Amount”) we will have to enter the quantity of SWAP.BLURT to transfer, while in the second (“Withdraw Address”) we will have to enter the username associated with the receiver account on Blurt.
In the example below, you can see the two fields filled with my data. In your case, fill it in with your ones, and check that there are no errors. To start the transfer, you will have to click on the box highlighted in red (the one with the “Withdraw SWAP.BLURT” phrase).
I would like to point out that there will be some conditions to be met:
- the minimum transferable amount (which in my case was 5 SWAP.BLURT)
- the transfer fees you have to pay, which in my case amounted to 0.75% of the total amount transferred, plus another 0.10 SWAP.BLURT. These fees will be deducted from the tokens you are transferring.
At this point, you will need to confirm the transaction with your active key. In my case, I did it using the Hive Keychain extension. If you are unfamiliar with this interface, WARNING! In the cryptocurrency universe, there are sometimes fake sites or extensions that take possession of our data when we use them. Don’t proceed if you don’t trust these tools.
If you decide to continue, confirm the transaction.
At this point, the transaction should have taken place. You can check this by going back to the “Wallet” area of Hive Engine and looking for the SWAP.BLURT area. You should only be able to see the amount remaining after the transaction. If you want to be more secure, click on the right-most icon on the SWAP.BLURT token row, the one with three parallel horizontal lines.
The list of operations performed should appear, the last of which should be the one of the transfer. On the line, you will find the date and time of execution and details about the sender and recipient. In this case, although you entered your Blurt account name on the transfer page as the recipient account, there is an intermediary account that acts as a bridge, and that, in my case, was graphene-swap. It will send the input to a second intermediate account. If you want to have a look at the deeper details of the transaction, you can click on the circled I to the left of the transfer details line.
A window will appear with all the various details.
And now?
Now, we just have to wait. The first intermediary account will take care of transferring the inputs to an intermediary account on the Blurt blockchain, which in my case was Blurt-Swap. After a few minutes (in my case about 12 minutes) you should receive the sent amount in your Blurtwallet. You can check the transaction once it has taken place by consulting the Wallet page of the various interfaces for Blurt.
In my case, I checked from my Blurtwallet after logging in.
DOUBTS?
And nothing, we’re done. I hope the tutorial is simple enough. Feel free to comment if you have any doubts or if you can’t figure out how to proceed between the various steps. As much as I can, I will try to provide you with all the help possible.
If you want, you can also follow a very similar method using another platform: Tribaldex. There are various posts created a while ago regarding the Tribaldex or Hive Engine method. Consult the web and check out the articles about them.
