Yes, you need to link your accounts to receive your yield on any asset held outside your Kinesis account, which is why it is imperative that Kinesis users check their linked addresses, to make sure that all wallets that you have used for minting and holding coins in the past are listed.
Please note that the vast majority of Kinesis accounts are automatically pre-linked, and only a small minority of Kinesis users owning external wallets, such as a CoolWallet, may need to manually link their addresses.
Although the vast majority of Kinesis users will be required to take no action, we still urge all participants to check that all addresses previously minted to are listed in the address linking widget on the platform.
We would like to emphasise that all unlisted addresses will not receive a yield. This is why it is imperative that all users follow the steps to ensure all addresses previously minted to are linked and listed.
A comprehensive linking guide can be found here.
For linking the CoolWallet addresses, see the CoolWallet address linking guide, here.
