How do I set up my Tron account in Steemitwallet & redeem TRX rewards?

in hive-196725 •  4 years ago  (edited)

For some reason TRX is no longer showing up from my curations. It did at first and now nothing for the last 3 days. Is there a problem?

Now the balance is 0. Has it been hacked? (the later account because I see the 11.3 in the first account)

Also I see no way to not claim TRX and get my Steem. It seems that in order to get my Steem I have to throw my TRX into a black hole or allow my Steem to be held hostage. I tried using SteemWorld to claim into powerup hoping it would leave the TRX there until I can figure out what's wrong, but it still sent my TRX associated with the same reward into a black hole.

I'm a developer for decades now and have used PGP/GPG and wrote my own hashing algo for my own software. Not used to feeling like newb in an area that should be obvious, but I have no explanation for the behavior. I did save my private keys after clicking on update account, but it doesn't show to which account it is going when you claim reward.

https://steemitwallet.com/api/v1/tron/tron_user?username=zoidsoft

Still see nothing with this public key in the tron_addr field:

{"status":"ok","result":{"username":"zoidsoft","tron_addr":"TNkKZccPN2GZP9bcu8CtMgn1ZjZq3FioKT","pending_claim_tron_reward":"0 TRX","tip_count":2}}

I set up my three accounts here:

https://tronscan.org/#/myaccount/index

3 different public keys. One showing a balance of 11+ and the other two at zero. Is it possible it is sending it somewhere other than to TNkKZccPN2GZP9bcu8CtMgn1ZjZq3FioKT?

Must be some way to track what happens after you click on claim reward.

Also I don't see any documentation on where to go when there's problems in the Steemit website. I would have hoped this would be better organized.

EDIT: I thought maybe it was something I did, but apparently others are having the same issue.

Hi @zoidsoft

I did save my private keys after clicking on update account, but it doesn't show to which account it is going when you claim reward.

I think this is why your TRX reward on the previous private keys gone "disappeared" as you click the "update account" you literally create another new account, and the TRX balance on the previous account that you save gone too.
Fortunately, your previous TRX balance on your previous TRON account that you have saved the private key still exists on that account if you check it on tronlink or tronscan.
Now the one showing on the steemwallet page is the new TRON account that you just created through the "UPDATE THE TRON ACCOUNT" button.

This explained why people complaining about why their claimed reward does not appear on their steemwallet page, am guessing...

Thanks. I figured out what was happening and now have 3 accounts on tronscan. I did save all the private keys. I just have to figure out how to transfer the balance over to the new account.

Have you installed tronlink wallet? It's easier to do transfer with that wallet, you just save all the 3 private keys on the tronlink. The transfer between the wallet can be done with the tronlink by just send to the public address of these 3 accounts you have, through send/receive button.

Or you can do that on steemwallet too. You need all 3 private keys ready for that and also the public keys too.
If you don't mind, could you share what was your problem with me? So I can help others too. Did you happen to update the Tron account after the first step of creat your tron wallet for the first time? Also, you have 3 Tron accounts because you clicked the update tron account button on steemwallet page 2 times? I appreciate your feedback so I know the reasons why others have the same issues. Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

Essentially I clicked that button twice, got 3 public/private keypairs, then set up the wallet here:

https://tronscan.org/#/myaccount/index

I arrive here:

Then click on tronlink:

But it gives the please login to tronlink extension wallet first.

Not sure where that is.

you have to go to your browser extension and enable tronlink wallet there, and pinned it on your browser so you can access it easily like mine here I
