Manage Multi-chain Assets and Connect to Web3 with Clarity
A multi-chain wallet, blockchain network and Web3 knowledge hub from imtoken
Manage assets across supported networks, verify network choices before sending, receive with the correct address, connect to DApps with separate reviews for signatures and approvals, and build wallet security habits from the first backup.

Wallet security
Keep seed phrases and private keys under your control, back up offline, and review permissions before signing.
Multi-chain
Multi-chain
A multi-chain wallet can organize accounts across several networks, but assets on one network do not automatically exist on another. Verify the active network before receiving, sending or signing.
Read guide →Public Chains
Public Chains
Public chains use distributed nodes to validate and record transactions in blocks. A block explorer helps you verify transactions, confirmations and contract activity independently of the wallet interface.

EVM
EVM
EVM-compatible networks share a contract execution model, address conventions and gas concepts, yet each network has its own chain state and native fee asset.

Layer 2
Layer 2
Layer 2 systems extend transaction capacity while maintaining a settlement or security relationship with a main network. Bridging between layers can involve waiting periods and distinct risks.

Gas & Confirmations
Gas & Confirmations
Gas pays for computation and transaction inclusion. Fees and confirmation times can change with network demand, and a submitted transaction may remain pending or fail.

Six steps from setup to ongoing checks
- 01
Get imtoken
Use the official download entry and do not trust links that expose an unrelated final target.
- 02
Create or import a wallet
Understand what is created or imported before adding assets.
- 03
Back up offline
Keep the seed phrase offline and never disclose the private key.
- 04
Select and verify a network
Check the network before receiving, sending or connecting to a DApp.
- 05
Receive or send assets
Confirm address, network, amount and gas before broadcasting.
- 06
Review transactions and approvals
Use transaction hashes and periodically review permissions you no longer need.
Web3 & DApp
Review every request as its own permission decision
Connecting a wallet does not mean every later signature or approval should be accepted. Review each request separately.
Web3 guide →- Visit the DApp
- Verify the domain
- Request a connection
- Review account access
- Inspect the signature or approval
- Complete the action
- Disconnect when no longer needed
Security
Build security into routine wallet use
Wallet security is not a single switch. It comes from how you store recovery material, verify websites, evaluate signatures, manage token approvals, secure devices and check every transfer. Seed phrases and private keys stay under your control, blockchain transfers are usually not reversible by the wallet alone, and third-party DApps or smart contracts may carry their own risks.
Open Security Center →- Back up the seed phrase offline
- Never disclose private keys
- Verify network and address
- Review signature requests
- Manage DApp approvals
Featured introduction
What Should You Understand Before Using a Digital Wallet?
Start with addresses, seed phrases, private keys, networks, gas, transaction hashes, DApps and approvals. Understanding how these pieces relate makes later actions easier to verify and troubleshoot.

FAQ
Common questions before you act
What is imtoken used for?
imtoken helps organize multi-chain wallet addresses, view assets, prepare transfers and connect to Web3. The interface assists with actions, while the selected blockchain network records the final state.
How are a seed phrase and a private key different?
Both can provide control over wallet assets. A seed phrase commonly restores a set of accounts, while a private key is specific key material. Neither should be sent to another person or entered into an unfamiliar website.
Why do I need to verify the network?
The same asset name may exist on different networks, and address formats can look similar. A wrong network choice can prevent assets from arriving as expected, so verify the network, address and token information together.
What is gas?
Gas measures the computational resources needed for an on-chain transaction or contract call. The actual fee can change with network conditions, transaction complexity and fee settings.
What is a transaction hash for?
A transaction hash is an important identifier for checking an on-chain transaction. It can be used with the appropriate block explorer to verify broadcast, confirmation, failure or contract execution status.
Does connecting to a DApp approve my assets?
No. A connection usually establishes an account session. Signatures, token approvals and on-chain transactions are separate permission layers and should be reviewed separately.
Is a message signature always safe?
No. Message signatures can be used for login but may also be designed to capture authorization intent. Verify the domain, the full message and the reason for signing.
