How to Create a TRON (TRX) Wallet?
Before its mainnet was launched, was an ERC20 Ethereum-based token that could be stored in a variety of cryptocurrency wallets that support the ERC20 standard. Now, the TRON mainnet is in full swing and there’s TRON-specific wallets designed to facilitate transactions and store your TRX safely. In this example, we’ll be looking at the TronLink Chrome extension, as it is one of the most user-friendly wallets. If you want to have your TRON wallet on a mobile device, Trust Wallet is a solid option – they just added support for TRX recently. To see more wallet options, you can check out a more comprehensive list on the official TRON website. First, let’s head to TronLink’s section on Google Chrome’s web store. After we add the extension to our browser, we can launch the extension. We have to input a password, and TronLink will use it to generate a backup phrase, which consists of several different English words. Create a safe copy of your backup phrase and make sure not to lose it – you can, for example, print it out on a piece of paper and store it in a safe place. Under the accounts tab, you will see an address that’s been automatically generated when you signed in to TronLink. If you wish, you can easily create a new account and address or import an existing TRON account.
In our case, we withdrew some TRX tokens from a cryptocurrency exchange to the default account that was created for us by TronLink. Now, let’s make a transaction with our TRX. Go to TronLink’s “Send” tab and paste the recipient’s address to the “Sending to” section. Then, enter the amount of TRX you want to send. After clicking send TRX, you will be presented with the details of the transaction and you will have to confirm it once again. In this step, make sure that you provided the correct address and the correct account, as transactions are not reversible once signed.
Congratulations, you’ve successfully signed a transaction! Now, you’ll have to wait for the transaction to complete. On the TRON network, this shouldn’t take more than a couple of minutes under normal conditions.
