Hey @abisolami that's a great question, firstly the TRX wallet was already part of Steemit with the change of ownership, it's only been removed during the past month. When it comes to why we should continue to have to a functioning TRXwallet I feel there are many reasons.
A few examples are, TRX is already a well know established crypto that people have been using for a while. It would be good for Steem to continue to be associated with such a well placed crypto, TRX ranks 9th place in most of the leader boards while Steem as fallen somewhere below 400th plus, yikes. TRX being so well known can help attract more users to Steem, I have personally been able to get people interested in Steem only because they already heard of or had some experience with TRX and so I think this method needs to be further explored and could be a great way to market Steem.
TRX is found acceptable in many merchant shops and also provides a easier way for people to be able to swap their earned crypto into buying real world goods which would be a incredible relationship for Steemit users to have excess to and it's something else that needs to be further explored and taught to users.
On Steemit itself we already have a TronFanClub community so it seems a little silly to remove the TRXwallet from users who moved to Steemit after the acceptance of Tron on the platform from users who already like using TRX and discussing it regularly right here on Steemit. It's like a bit of a kick for those who originally came to Steemit from Tron. There are also users who have collected TRX when it was still being given out on Steemit, some users will return eventually only to see their TRX as just vanished or they won't even know they have any because it's been removed from their account which seems a bit wrong to me.
Keeping the TRXwallet would give people more value owning a SteemWallet in the first place, having a TRXwallet intergrated on SteemWallet was actually more secure for Tron users than using it with Tronlink or other methods due to needing to sign transactions with their Steemit produced Tron key.
And I'm sure there are likely more reasons.
Oh you’re right
If we are linked with TRX, a lot of people may trust Steemit and may want to invest in it
No one wants to associate with something that isn’t popular or big and that’s why we need the TRX wallet
Thanks for the explanation
I'm glad that made sense to you abisolami and I like how your worded that, you make a good point in saying that being linked to TRX will bring more trust to the Steem token.
