Whether you are a new Hive user or a long-time community member, we all have different reasons to create a new Hive account. In PeakD.com, there are three Sign Up options that you can choose from including a new project we just integrated and are announcing as being part of the site.
Sign up options for PeakD.com
There are currently three available sign up options for PeakD.com:
- Hive On Board
- Hivedex.io
- Splinterlands
Each sign up option has different perks and costs that we will be highlighting further in this post.
To get to these options you must be logged out.
Hive On Board
First option is by creating an account through the 
- Hive On Board is a FREE way to sign up for a new Hive account.
- Code is delivered by Text/SMS for verification
- You can use it once and there are requirements (phone number)
After selecting the Hive On Board option, the pop-up where you can input the account name along with the steps for account creation will show.
Aside from the ability to be able to create a new account on Hive On Board, the platform also has great resources to learn more about Hive. So if you are a Hive user, it is best to take a look at the "Learn" tab as well.
After proceeding from the username selection pop-up, you will be redirected to this interface. Make sure that you read all the information and store your keys properly.
Hivedex.io (NEW)
A new sign up option which is also a popular one is creating a new Hive account by using Hivedex.io.
- Hivedex.io lets you create an account anonymously for just $1.49
- Supports all popular crypto payment methods
- There is no limit to times you can use it
- They are much safer for generating keys than competitors (we trust them)
After selecting the Hivedex.io sign up option, the pop-up containing more information to better understand your Hive account & keys will show up. Read it thoroughly and follow the steps to start creating your Hive account.
After following the steps from the pop-up, you will eventually be redirected to the cryptomus page where you can pay for the account creation with lots of cryptocurrency options to choose from.
Splinterlands
Another option to create a new Hive account is through Splinterlands, a digital trading card game in the Hive ecosystem. While this option costs $10, the Hive account that you created will give you one summoner's spellbook to play Splinterlands.
If you are not yet familiar with Splinterlands, you should definitely check out their website: https://splinterlands.com/
So if you are planning to play Splinterlands as well, this is probably the best Hive account creation option for you as you will be able to use your Splinterlands account with summoner's spellbook to interact with the Hive ecosystem.
Which sign up option is the right one for you?
Well, it really depends on your preference. As we've mentioned earlier, if you are planning to play Splinterlands with the spellbook anyway, then creating a Hive account through Splinterlands is probably the most suitable for you.
However, if you prefer free account creation then Hive on board is probably the best. As for those who gives importance to anonymity and various cryptocurrency payment options, Hivedex.io is probably the best sign up option.
