TronLink Wallet Creation and Recovery
Greetings to all readers of this platform, in this opportunity I want to show you the steps to follow to create the TronLink wallet, as well as the steps for the safeguarding of our recovery words, and if you want to use an existing wallet, this in order to learn about the use of this wallet, because the blockchain is developing many projects for which you require this wallet.

When you download the wallet, it will remain as an extension in your browser, and when you open it, it will display 2 options, the one in the red box referring to the creation of a new wallet, and the one in the blue box referring to the recovery of an existing wallet, as shown in the following image.

After reading the contract and accepting the terms and conditions of the same, we will be shown a screen to add our password to the wallet, which must comply with some characteristics requested by the platform, referring to having uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers and at least 8 characters, as shown in the following image.

After assigning our password to enter the wallet, we must back up our secret phrases, these will be shown in the blue box option that says “Back up Wallet” where it will show us the recovery words as shown in the following image.

When entering there, we are asked to save the words very well and write them down respecting their order, then we press the blue box that says “View Mnemonic Phrase” and it will show us the secret phrases in order and allowing us to copy them to save them, as shown in the following image.

On the other hand, for people who are part of Steemit, there is the possibility of linking this wallet with our TRX wallet of the Steemit platform, when they began to implement the TRX on the platform, they gave us some keys referred to that wallet, when we give it to import existing wallet, it will ask us for the recovery phrases, in this case we enter the TRX key given on the platform and it will link our Steemit wallet with the TRX wallet as shown in the following image.
