Manage Multi-chain Assets and Connect to Web3 with Clarity
A multi-chain wallet, blockchain network and Web3 knowledge hub from imtoken
Use imtoken to learn how to view multi-chain assets, choose networks, send and receive, connect to DApps, review approvals and build safer wallet habits.
Start with the task in front of you
Move through the wallet in a practical order. Each task highlights the context that should be checked before you continue.
Back Up a Wallet
Write the seed phrase offline, verify the order and keep it away from screenshots, chat and cloud storage.
Read guide →Receive Assets
Confirm the network and receiving address before sharing it with the sender.
Read guide →Send Assets
Review destination, network, asset, amount and gas before submitting an irreversible transaction.
Read guide →Connect to a DApp
Confirm the domain first, then review account, signature and approval requests one by one.
Read guide →Wallet capabilities, organized by real use
Assets, transfers, mobile use, browser connections and security each require a different kind of attention.
Multi-chain assets
See balances in network context and verify the chain before acting.
Send & receive
Check receiving address, network, amount, gas and transaction hash.
imtoken APP
Mobile access to assets, network management, DApps and transaction history.
imtoken Web
Understand browser connections, account requests, approvals and disconnecting.
Wallet security
Keep keys offline and review signatures and permissions before approval.
Explore blockchain networks
Move between network concepts while keeping each explanation directly available on the page.
Use multiple networks without mixing them up
Balances and transactions remain network-specific even when an address format looks familiar.
Learn multi-chain basics →How public chains record transactions
Nodes validate and propagate transactions; blocks and explorers make network state observable.
EVM, gas and contracts
Compatible networks share execution concepts while maintaining independent state and assets.
Layer 2 and bridging context
Understand bridge direction, waiting periods and destination-network gas before moving assets.
Fees and confirmation states
Gas reflects network execution resources, while confirmations indicate how a transaction is anchored in later blocks.
Understand gas and confirmations →A six-step wallet path
Get imtoken
Use the official download entry and install only from a trusted source.
Create or import a wallet
Understand whether you are generating new keys or loading an existing account.
Back up offline
Keep the seed phrase offline and never disclose the private key.
Choose and verify a network
Match the asset, destination and network before receiving or sending.
Receive or send assets
Review address, amount, gas and expected result before submission.
Check transactions and approvals
Use the transaction hash and review DApp permissions that are no longer needed.
Connect to Web3 one decision at a time
A wallet connection is only the beginning. Domain checks, account requests, signatures and approvals each deserve their own review.
Web3 & DApp guide →Connecting a wallet does not mean every signature request should be accepted. Review every signature and approval independently.
Visit the DApp
Confirm the domain
Start connection
Review account request
Check signature or approval
Complete the action
Disconnect unused connections
Security is a repeatable practice
Wallet security depends on self-custody of keys, a trusted device, careful review of requests and an understanding that third-party DApps and contracts can carry risk. Keep the seed phrase and private key offline, reject impersonation, review addresses and networks before transfers, and inspect permission scope before approvals.

What Should You Understand Before Using a Digital Wallet?
Start with the relationship between addresses, seed phrases and private keys, then understand networks, gas and transaction hashes before moving into DApps and approvals.
Read the starter guide →Public chains and transaction confirmations
Understand nodes, blocks, explorers and confirmation states.
EVM and smart contracts
See how gas, contracts and token approvals fit together.
Layer 2 basics
Learn bridging direction, waiting and destination-network context.
DApp approvals
Review permission scope and revoke access you no longer need.
Ethereum & PoS
Ethereum Staking Fundamentals
Understand PoS, validators, reward sources, network state, withdrawals and exits without treating variable rewards as a guarantee.
Read staking basics →Know before participating
Validator penalties, smart-contract risk, exit waiting, market volatility and third-party service risk can all affect the experience.
Learn about validators →Product & security updates
Wallet usage notes
Review network context and transaction details before acting on a new asset or request.
Connection guidance
Account connection, signatures and approvals are separate decisions.
Protect recovery credentials
Never provide a seed phrase, private key or verification code to anyone.
Confirmation awareness
Use transaction hashes and explorers to verify on-chain status.
Frequently asked questions
A wallet manages the cryptographic keys used to authorize activity for blockchain accounts. Assets remain recorded on their networks rather than being stored inside the interface.
The user should keep them. imtoken personnel will not ask for a seed phrase, private key or verification code, and those credentials should never be sent to another person.
An address can look familiar across compatible networks while balances and contracts remain separate. The sender and receiver should agree on the same network.
Gas measures network execution resources. The actual fee depends on network rules, congestion and the complexity of the transaction or contract call.
It is a public identifier for an on-chain transaction. It can be used with a block explorer to inspect status, addresses, token transfers, gas use and block information.
No. Connection, signatures, token approvals and transactions are separate actions and should be reviewed independently.
It is permission for a specified smart contract to use a token within an allowed scope. Review the contract and amount before approving.
Often yes through an on-chain transaction, but the method and fee depend on the network. Disconnecting a site alone does not necessarily revoke an approval.
