# Register your HiveSQL account

Before being able to access the HiveSQL database, you will have to create a HiveSQL account. The process is very simple:

1. Transfer **1 HBD** to [@hivesql](https://peakd.com/@hivesql) (no memo required)
2. As soon as [@hivesql](https://peakd.com/@hivesql) receives your transfer, your activation will be processed
3. A few seconds later, you will receive a micro-transfer back from [@hivesql](https://peakd.com/@hivesql).

The [@hivesql](https://peakd.com/@hivesql) transfer memo contains your new credentials and is therefore encrypted.\
There are two easy ways to see its decrypted content:

1\. If you use **peakd.com**, click on the small green lock. It will decrypt and display the memo

2\. If you have **Keychain** installed, open it and click on the History button\
