Multi-chain assets
Different networks maintain separate state. Verify the network, address, token contract and confirmation status instead of relying on a familiar symbol.

Manage Multi-chain Assets and Connect to Web3 with Clarity
A multi-chain wallet, blockchain network and Web3 knowledge hub from imtoken
Bring asset views, network selection, sending and receiving, DApp connections, approvals, network knowledge and wallet security into one coherent workflow. Each action should remain understandable before it is signed and verifiable after it reaches the network.

01
Create a Wallet
Start with the difference between an address, a seed phrase and a private key before creating a new account.
View steps →02
Back Up a Wallet
Keep the recovery material offline, verify the order and avoid screenshots or exposed cloud storage.
View steps →03
Receive Assets
Share the correct address together with the intended network, then verify the incoming transaction.
View steps →04
Send Assets
Check the recipient, network, asset, amount and gas before signing a transfer.
View steps →05
Connect to a DApp
Verify the domain first, then review account access, signatures and approvals as separate requests.
View steps →Wallet capabilities organised around real tasks
Asset views, network rules, transfers, DApps and security are connected parts of the same on-chain workflow.
Send & receive
A transfer review links the receive address, selected network, amount, gas and transaction hash into one checkable record.
imtoken App
Use the mobile wallet to view assets, manage networks and review transaction history while keeping device security part of the workflow.
imtoken Web
Browser connections should make account requests, signatures, approvals and disconnect actions clear rather than treating “connected” as blanket consent.
Wallet security
Keep seed phrases offline, never disclose private keys, inspect signatures and approvals, and review permissions that are no longer needed.
Explore blockchain networks
A wallet can show several networks, but each network has its own rules, fees, transaction state and confirmation process.
Multi-chain
A multi-chain view starts by separating ledgers. Similar addresses or token names do not merge networks, so network selection, gas assets and contract identities should be checked together.
Read the guide →Public chains
Public chains coordinate nodes, blocks and transaction propagation under shared protocol rules. Confirmation depth and finality depend on the network rather than on a wallet interface.
Read the guide →
EVM
EVM-compatible networks share an execution model for smart contracts, yet remain separate networks. Review chain identity, gas, contract addresses and approvals before interacting.
Read the guide →
Layer 2
Layer 2 systems relate to a base network through defined mechanisms. Cross-layer deposits, withdrawals and bridges may have distinct confirmation and waiting rules.
Read the guide →
Gas & confirmations
Gas pays for network execution. Congestion, fee settings and transaction complexity can change cost and waiting time; the transaction hash is the key reference for status.
Read the guide →A six-step wallet path
01 Get imtoken
Use the download entry intentionally; do not follow unsolicited links that claim to offer a special build.
02 Create or import a wallet
Confirm whether you are creating a new account or restoring an existing one before entering any recovery material.
03 Back up offline
Write the seed phrase accurately, verify its order, and keep it away from screenshots, chat messages and shared cloud documents.
04 Choose and verify the network
Match the network to the intended asset or DApp and confirm the gas asset before taking the next step.
05 Receive or send assets
For receiving, share the correct network and address; for sending, review the recipient, amount, asset and gas.
06 Review transactions and approvals
Keep the transaction hash, confirm the final on-chain state, and periodically remove permissions that are no longer needed.
A DApp connection is only the beginning
Connecting a wallet does not mean every later signature or approval should be accepted. Treat each request as a separate decision.
Open the Web3 guide →Visit the DApp
Verify the domain
Start the connection
Review the account request
Inspect the signature or approval
Complete the intended action
Disconnect when no longer needed
If you cannot explain a request in plain language, stop and verify it before signing.
Security is a routine, not a switch
Users remain responsible for their seed phrases and private keys. imtoken will not ask for these secrets. Verify the address, network and amount before transfers; inspect signatures and approvals; be cautious on public devices and networks; and remember that third-party DApps and smart contracts can introduce their own risks.

What Should You Understand Before Using a Digital Wallet?
Start with the relationship between addresses, seed phrases, private keys, networks, gas, transaction hashes, DApps and approvals. Understanding how they connect makes each later check more meaningful.

Ethereum & PoS
Ethereum Staking Basics
Learn how Ethereum PoS validators participate in consensus, where protocol rewards can come from, and how withdrawals and exits work. Rewards are not guaranteed and can change with network conditions and validator performance.
Read the basics →Understand the risks before participating
Validator penalties, waiting periods, smart-contract risk, third-party service risk and digital-asset price volatility can all affect the outcome. Participation should be based on the user’s own circumstances.

Product Notice
Wallet and network guidance is organised around complete workflows rather than isolated features.
Security Notice
No legitimate support process should ask for a seed phrase, private key or verification code.
Network Notice
Cross-network actions should begin with network identity, target asset and arrival-path checks.
Recent Update
The DApp guidance separates connection, signing and approval into independent decisions.
Service Notice
Staking pages emphasise changing rewards, exit timing, network penalties and technical risk.
Frequently asked questions
What does a self-custody wallet control?
It helps the user manage keys, addresses and signed transactions. The underlying asset state is recorded by the relevant blockchain.
Can support recover my seed phrase?
No. Seed phrases and private keys should not be sent to support or any other person.
Why check the network before a transfer?
A similar address format can exist on different networks. The selected network determines where the transaction is recorded.
What is gas?
Gas is the network resource accounting used to price transaction or contract execution.
What is a transaction hash?
It is the identifier used to locate and inspect a specific blockchain transaction.
Does connecting to a DApp approve everything?
No. Connection, signing and token approvals are separate actions and should be reviewed separately.
Can a wallet provider reverse a confirmed blockchain transfer?
Generally no. Confirmed on-chain transfers are usually not reversible by a wallet provider.
