Introducing Hive Swap Beta — A Faster Way to Trade, Pool, and Bridge on Hive Engine
Published on HivePostify by @hive-swap.com · Mon May 11 2026
Introducing Hive Swap (Beta) 🐝
I'm excited to share the beta launch of Hive Swap — a clean, fast, all-in-one interface for trading Hive Engine tokens, providing liquidity, and bridging assets between Hive and other chains.
You can try it right now: [hive-swap.com](https://www.hive-swap.com)
> ⚠️ Beta notice: Hive Swap is in active beta. Everything works on-chain through your Hive Keychain — we never touch your keys — but you may run into rough edges. Please report anything weird so I can squash it.

Why another Hive Engine front-end?
The existing options work, but I wanted something that felt fast, looked modern, and put swaps, pools, and bridges in one place without bouncing between three different tabs. So I built it.
Hive Swap is:
- ⚡ Stateless — your keys stay in Keychain. We just build the unsigned customjson and let you sign it. - 🔀 Multi-hop aware — quotes route through SWAP.HIVE automatically when no direct pool exists. - 🌉 Bridge-native — Hive ↔ Base, BSC, Ethereum, and Solana, all from the same UI. - 📊 Chart-first — candlesticks and history right next to the swap widget so you're not flying blind.
The main swap interface — quotes update live, fees shown up front, no surprises.

What's in the beta
🔁 Swap
Trade any pair on Hive Engine. The router handles direct pools and 2-hop routes through SWAP.HIVE automatically. You see the quote, price impact, and fees before you sign anything.
💧 Pools
Add or remove liquidity, view your LP positions, and browse every pool on Hive Engine — sorted by TVL or volume.
Manage liquidity positions and explore pools at a glance.
🌉 Bridges
One-click bridging between Hive and:
- Base (min 100 HIVE) - BSC (min 100 HIVE) - Ethereum (min 1000 HIVE)
No copy-pasting memo strings — the UI handles the gateway accounts and references for you.
Bridging Hive to Base, BSC, Ethereum, and Solana from a single screen.
📈 Charts & history
Every pair has a candlestick chart and a recent-trade feed so you can see what's actually happening before you commit.

How to try it
1. Visit [hive-swap.com](https://www.hive-swap.com) 2. Click Connect — you'll need the [Hive Keychain](https://hive-keychain.com/) browser extension 3. Pick a pair, get a quote, and sign in Keychain
That's it. No sign-up, no email, no custodial anything.

Fees
There's a small 0.25% platform fee on swaps (collected to hive-swap-fees). This keeps the lights on and funds continued development. Hive Engine's own pool fees still apply on top of that — same as any other front-end.
---
What's next
Beta means I'm still iterating fast. On the near-term list:
- More chart timeframes and indicators - Slippage tolerance presets - Mobile polish - Public HTTP API (already drafted at /docs/api — feedback welcome) - Whatever you ask for in the comments 👇

Feedback wanted
This is the part where I genuinely need your help. If you try Hive Swap and something:
- breaks ❌ - feels slow 🐌 - is confusing 🤔 - could be better ✨
…drop a comment below or open an issue. Early beta feedback shapes the product more than anything else.
