Do you have to create a new wallet or can you use the wallet issued to you buy Steemit? Can you then use the keys that it gives you in the PDF and import that into TronLink?

I honestly don't know yet. I have like 12 wallets on TronLink and have not done anything yet with the TRON earned on Steemit, as it is very small in comparison

Actually I just tried, you can easily import the Steemit wallet into Tronlink by using the personal key.
Very convenient and easy to use

Excellent, now to figure out why I am not getting TRX in my wallet. In the last 5 days I have claimed TRX from earnings, but I have not actually received any in my wallet. Not sure why?
