(1) What is TronLink and what is Tronscan?
TronLink.
It is a wallet that allows you to manage coins of the Tron Blockchain, including the Trc-10 and Trc-20 standard, it is a very complete wallet since it has various functions and through this, we can make use of decentralized applications or others; we can use it from different devices, either from the browser extension or from the application on smartphones.

TronLink represents the Blockchain Tron, since it is the official wallet of the project, the objective when creating this wallet was to facilitate and encourage the use of the Blockchain Tron, since in addition to sending and receiving assets, we can also venture into decentralized finance, as well as other interesting alternatives offered by the decentralized applications of the Tron Blockchain.
What are its uses?
The main use is to send and receive cryptocurrencies or tokens, but we can also freeze trx, vote for representatives, make use of Dapps in which you can swap, participate in a Pool and among other services of centralized applications.
Tronscan.
It is the official explorer of the Tron Blockchain, in this we can see different types of information, from transactions, blocks, hashes, statuses of a transaction, tokens of an address and all the details of any transaction that runs on the Blockchain, in addition to these we can see information about projects and currencies.
Uses of Tronscan.
Tronscan offers other functions and features different from those of some explorers, since in this we can vote for Super Representatives, also make direct use of our funds either starting with TronLink, Ledger and with other ways of importing wallets, in addition to this we can freeze and thaw TRX, this added to the basic uses that I mentioned above such as:
- View transactions.
- View blocks.
- Status of a transaction.
- Consult the funds of an address.
- View transaction hashes.
- Check prices of network tokens.
- See projects.
- Know the token holders and addresses.
It really is a very complete and easy-to-use browser, it is very informative since we can also find different suggestions of decentralized applications, the White paper, and others.
How do you verify a transaction status(including timestamp, resource consumption(bandwidth & energy), nos of confirmations) using Tronscan-- Examples, Screenshot?
When entering Tronscan we can use the search bar to see a transaction, block, hash, and others. In this case, I will use my address to locate some of the transactions made, in this way this transaction will be used as an example.
0580abf44dc4355b63d444be28f6236ae10d9ba85786c63e7b975247a7bdeacd
As you can see a transaction of 10.584871 TRX was made from my address TQhZ7W1RudxFdzJMw6FvMnujPxrS6sFfmj to the following address: TTUQZtcUyrFpYoZZH7TTk4AtAwzdVZDUGxg, the transaction was successfully confirmed by 19 Super representatives, this transaction occurred 1 day ago with 2 hours, exactly it was made on 2021-12-21 at 17:50:36 and the bandwidth consumed was 288.
In this way, we can consult a transaction in the Tronscan browser and see all the details associated with it.
What are the different dApps can you explore using the TronLink wallet?
In TronLink when pressing Discover we will find several suggestions of Dapps, among this, is the best known, but we can also search externally by URL; at first glance, we observe JustLend, Sunswap, PoloniDex, Just swap, Tronlending, and Blockchain Cuties, these are just some of the great variety of decentralized applications, these work through smart contracts, most are intended to offer the same services of exchange, others are decentralized finance platforms and there are also gaming platforms, all of these work through the Tron Blockchain, the objective is to increase the number of users in the network and also to solve the needs of those who use the Tron Blockchain.
Here I've shown some of the DAPPs that we can find from the given DAPPS list.
As we have seen, it is a wallet that has various functions and that allows us to access products in a fast, simple and secure way.
Make a transaction(a micro-transaction) with Justswap or JustLend using TronLink wallet?Screenshot?
Currently from the Market option on TronLink we can directly access the sunswap.com exchange, but I will open it individually to make the transaction, in which I will exchange TRX for USDT, to exchange place 20 TRX, this is equivalent to 1.57 USDT, then we press swap.
Then it will show details of the exchange and we must confirm 2 times.
At the end, the transaction should appear as confirmed.
In Tronscan we can see the details of the transaction, here we see the number of confirmations, which were 19, the transaction was made on 3mins 23secs ago 2021-12-22 20:24:18. However, the transaction has failed due to out of energy.
In this way, you can execute a transaction in JustSwap and also observe the details in Tronscan, without a doubt the Blockchain Tron offers good commissions for shipping, exchange of coins or for the interaction of any platform from the smart contract.
As I mentioned before Tron is a Blockchian with low commissions and scalable, which is attractive when it comes to attracting users, unlike other blockchains, Tron works under the delegated proof of stake DPoS, with which it wants to maintain decentralization and security in the Blockchain, since users when voting are the ones who choose the generators or validators of Blocks, better known as the SRs (Super Representatives). Its leader Justin Sun has worked to promote the blockchain, there are more and more Dapps that we can find in the Tron Blockchain.
