How to Rent Hive Power to Get More Resource Credits Using Hive Tokens (Rent RC instead of buying it)

If you see the error: "Oops, it looks like you don't have enough Resource Credits to transact on the Hive blockchain." you might want to consider taking more HIVE.POWER to do more activity on the Hive blockchain.

Staked Hive Power is used to allow Hive blockchain accounts to do transfers and other activities over the Hive Blockchain network. A standard account already has the ability to do many transfers per day for free. Also, Resource Credits regenerate back. So accounts that don't have a lot of activity on the Hive blockchain may not need this. But staking some Hive Power allows you to do more transfers. For example, after you transferred all your cards to another account or when you combined a lot of cards.

If you're looking to rent (=not buy) more Hive Power/Resource Credits with just a small amount of Hive token you can follow the steps below.
