With how far crypto and Web3 have come, someone —anyone— would’ve built a basic trading bot for Hive-Engine, or at least answered a question about it.
But if you're trying to build something like this? Sometimes it's all on you. There is no help. No one is coming to save the day for you. lol
What I’m Trying to Do
The idea was simple: build a bot that automatically trades SWAP.BNB on Hive-Engine to provide liquidity to create a token on the Binance Smart Chain or a BNB toke. I wanted to apply it to each chain that would allow a token to be created.
--Actions of the Bot--
- Check wallet balance
- Create a market order
- Submit that order using the
beemPython library
The result is a script called placeorder.py. I shared it publicly here for others to follow or help improve:
I’ve spent hours debugging, refining, and testing. It hasn’t worked perfectly yet—and so far, the feedback from the community has been… quiet. I still don't know my next move. I've been attempting to put a lot into this without the knowledge to proceed. I'm doing the research.
The Wall I Keep Hitting: Key Verification
Right now, my biggest challenge is key verification.
The beem library refuses to accept the private key for my account: peakecoin.bnb. I’ve tried everything:
- Hardcoding the active key
- Using environment variables
- Passing it directly into
Hive(keys=[...]) - Even setting up a local wallet file
No matter how I pass it, beem either throws a mismatch error, acts like the key doesn’t exist, or fails silently. The key itself is 100% valid—I’ve confirmed it with Hive Keychain and HiveSigner. It works everywhere else, just not in the one place I need it to.
Then the Inverter Failed
To top it all off, my inverter died—taking all of my Raspberry Pi servers offline in one shot.
I was in the middle of swapping chargers and batteries, trying to find the source of a dead battery in the system. Somewhere along the line, I likely caused an undervoltage or overload. The inverter couldn’t handle it, and now the whole setup is temporarily down while I figure out how to recover and stabilize it.
It’s a setback, no doubt. But not the end.
Why I’m Still Sharing This
I'm not writing this to complain—I'm writing this to connect.
Because if just one person reads this and says:
"Hey, I’ve dealt with that—here’s what helped me..."
That would make a world of difference.
I am looking for shortcuts, and if someone else can benefit from what I’ve learned—or teach me something I missed—then sharing it is already worth it.
I’m Still Building
Even through the bumps, I believe in what I’m doing.
I believe in PeakeCoin.
I believe in open tools, DIY projects, and small builds with big potential.
So yes, I’ve hit some roadblocks: a stubborn library, a dead inverter, and a quiet community.
But I’m still here. Still building. Still learning.
I appreciate all the help and votes that I have received. Just a little disheartened at the fact I can't really get much input.
I do receive support from some of the
