BE CAREFUL by using HIVE- Keychain: I lost 225 STEEM because of SWITCHING NODES

When you read the headline – you will think, that i must be kind of stupid: Loosing STEEM – when using HIVE –Keychain :-P

But it´s true!

Here is the story behind:

6 days ago, i wanted to transfer from my HIVE-Wallet via Deposit function of HIVE-Engine 112 HIVE.

Normaly a transaction to @honey-swap is generated, which „change“ your HIVE to swap.hive.

I tried it 2 times via HIVE-Keychain, which gave me an error (transaction failed). Finally on my 3. try it went trough and i got my 110 SWAP.HIVE on HIVE- Engine.
Here is the correct transaction on HIVE-Keychain; you can find it under https://peakd.com/@mfblack/wallet:

BUT AT THE SAME TIME ON STEEM-BLOCKCHAIN THIS HAPPEN:

Look at the function:

{"id":"ssc-mainnet-hive","json":
{"contractName":"hivepegged","contractAction":"buy","contractPayload":{}}}

HIVE-Keychain switched the Node and put the transaction on STEEM –BLOCKCHAIN!!!

I never wanted to do this transaction and now 225 STEEM from me were lost on @honey-swap account.

Look at https://steemd.com/@honey-swap

Beside me others users had the same problem; like
@iampolite
@maxi01
@priyanarc

I searched and talked a lot in discord forums and drop some question; but nobody can refund, because no one „seems“ to be the owner of @honey-swap account on STEEM-Blockchain.

But thanks a lot to people trying to help me in discord – Great community here and there!!!

Please mention:
I don´t want to talk bad words on people behind „the scenes“ – because of them i can use services like Hive-Engine / HIVE-Keychain : And therefore also a thank you to them;
but
I wanted to warn others users:
Actually be careful, when using HIVE-Keychain and doing transaction – ESPECIALLY when you had the same keys on HIVE and STEEM.

Now i´m changing my keys on HIVE, that this will never happen again.

Please REBLOG this Post to other users

Thanks an greets mfblack

Here is a lazy man suggestion. This happened to me earlier with the Hive transaction somehow causing issues with Steem transactions including posting. Here is what I did.

I started using two browsers. Steem and Steem Keychain on Google Chrome while Hive and Hive Keychain on Brave. Never faced that issue again. Now, you may argue that it is a node problem and not really dependent on browser then the question is how did a Hive command (transaction) initiate a Steem action? So, until things are fully sorted out. Follow this idea. Just a suggestion.

Should keychain or hive engine do something ie refund you as you are using there services and it is not your fault?
Obviously they wont
