A multi-chain wallet, blockchain network and Web3 knowledge hub from imtoken
Manage multi-chain assets with clearer network choices, receiving and sending checks, DApp connection guidance, approval awareness, practical blockchain knowledge, and wallet security habits.
Quick tasks
Start with the action you need
Back Up a Wallet
Record recovery information offline and keep it away from screenshots, cloud notes, and chat.
Open guide →Receive Assets
Check the receiving address and network together before asking another party to send.
Open guide →Send Assets
Verify the destination, network, amount, and gas before broadcasting an on-chain transfer.
Open guide →Connect to a DApp
Confirm the domain and review every connection, signature, and approval as a separate request.

One wallet, several decisions to verify
Multi-chain assets
Asset display depends on the selected network, token contract, address, and confirmed on-chain state.
imtoken App
Review networks, assets, activity, and DApp requests from a mobile workflow.
Send & receive
Check the receiving address, selected network, amount, gas, and transaction hash.
imtoken Web
Treat browser connection, signing, approval, and disconnecting as separate decisions.
Wallet security
Keep seed phrases and private keys offline, verify requests, and manage permissions you no longer need.
Blockchain networks
Explore a network before moving assets
Compare network concepts side by side and connect each one to practical checks before moving assets.
Multi-chain
Understand that one wallet can hold addresses used across different networks while balances and transaction states remain network-specific.
Learn network fundamentals →Public Chains
Nodes validate and relay transactions, blocks organize confirmed activity, and explorers expose public records that help you verify outcomes.
Learn network fundamentals →
EVM
EVM networks share familiar contract behavior, but chain ID, gas asset, token contract, and confirmation state still belong to the selected network.
Learn network fundamentals →
Layer 2
Layer 2 systems extend base networks. Cross-layer movement may involve bridges, different waiting periods, and separate confirmation states.
Learn network fundamentals →
Gas & Confirmations
Gas reflects execution cost, while confirmations indicate how deeply a transaction has been included in the chain.

Six steps from download to ongoing review
Get imtoken
Use the official download entry and review the page before continuing.
Create or import a wallet
Understand whether you are creating new keys or restoring an existing wallet.
Back up offline
Store the seed phrase offline and never disclose private keys to anyone.
Choose and verify a network
Confirm the network matches the asset and destination before transferring.
Receive or send assets
Check the address, amount, gas, and transaction details before submission.
Review transactions and approvals
Use transaction hashes and approval records to understand what remains active.
Web3 & DApp
Review the complete interaction, not just the connect button
A wallet connection does not mean every later signature or approval should be accepted. Treat each request as a new decision.
Check the domain, requested account, network, signature text, approval target, and permission scope.
Visit the DApp
Confirm the domain
Start a connection
Review account request
Inspect signature or approval
Complete the action
Disconnect unused connections
Security
Protect control information before protecting balances
A seed phrase and private key can control wallet assets. Store them offline, do not send them to anyone, and avoid typing them into third-party websites. Before transfers, signatures, and approvals, verify the network, destination, request details, and permission scope. Public computers, public Wi-Fi, clipboard manipulation, and remote-control software can add risk. On-chain transactions normally cannot be reversed by the wallet alone, and third-party DApps and smart contracts may behave unexpectedly or contain vulnerabilities.

Academy
What Should You Understand Before Using a Digital Wallet?
Start with addresses, seed phrases, private keys, networks, gas, transaction hashes, DApps, and approvals. These concepts appear together in real wallet tasks, so learning their relationships is more useful than memorizing definitions separately.
Read the starter guide →Public chains and confirmations
See how nodes, blocks, and confirmations create a public record.
EVM and smart contracts
Understand addresses, gas, contracts, tokens, and approvals.
Layer 2 fundamentals
Learn how L2 systems relate to mainnet and bridges.
DApp approvals
Review approval targets and permission scope.
Wallet security
Protect control information and verify requests.
Blockchain glossary
Connect common terms to real wallet actions.
Ethereum & PoS
Understand staking before evaluating participation
Ethereum Staking fundamentals
Learn how Ethereum PoS, validators, reward sources, network state, withdrawals, and exits fit together. Staking does not guarantee returns, and rewards can change.
Read staking basics →Review before participating
Validator penalties, exit waiting periods, smart-contract risk, asset-price volatility, and third-party service risk can all affect outcomes.
Understand validators →Updates
Product and security information
Product guidance
Review download and wallet entry points before continuing.
Network checks
Confirm the network and transaction hash when status appears inconsistent.
Approval review
Revisit DApp permissions you no longer need.
Staking information
Review network conditions and waiting periods before acting.
FAQ
Common questions before the next action
A digital wallet helps you manage addresses, keys, and on-chain transaction requests. It does not change the rules of the blockchain for you.
Both relate to wallet control. A seed phrase can derive multiple accounts, while a private key typically represents a specific key. Protect both offline.
No. Legitimate support should not ask for a seed phrase, private key, or verification code, and you should not submit them through forms, chat, or email.
The same asset name may exist on multiple networks. The sender and recipient need compatible network context for the transfer to appear as expected.
Gas describes the network fee required for certain on-chain transactions or smart-contract actions. Cost depends on network rules and demand.
A transaction hash is a public identifier that can be used with an explorer for the correct network to review status, confirmations, and public transaction details.
Confirm that you are checking the correct network, review the transaction hash, fee settings, and congestion, and avoid repeatedly submitting the same action without understanding its state.
