imtoken will never ask for your seed phrase, private key or verification code. Always review the address, network and request details before transferring, signing or approving.

Multi-chain

Choose the correct network, verify addresses and understand where assets actually live.

Safety principle

Never share your seed phrase, private key or verification code. Review the address, network and request details before you sign, approve or transfer.

Assets belong to a specific network

How to evaluate it

Assets belong to a specific network is a distinct part of understanding Multi-chain. Separate interface labels from on-chain facts: an address identifies an account, the selected network determines where the asset and transaction exist, and a signature or approval can change permissions or trigger execution. The goal is not to memorize button positions. A safer habit is to identify the request, the network, the permission being granted and the result you expect before you confirm anything.

Assets belong to a specific network is a distinct part of understanding Multi-chain. Separate interface labels from on-chain facts: an address identifies an account, the selected network determines where the asset and transaction exist, and a signature or approval can change permissions or trigger execution. Fees, confirmation speed and supported features vary across networks. A wallet interface is only one view of the activity; the corresponding blockchain record remains the stronger reference for transaction status.

Similar network names do not imply interoperability

Use a least-privilege mindset. Never share a seed phrase, private key or verification code, and do not lower your review standard because a request claims to be support, an airdrop, an upgrade or an urgent notice.

Checks before cross-network activity

How to evaluate it

Checks before cross-network activity is a distinct part of understanding Multi-chain. Separate interface labels from on-chain facts: an address identifies an account, the selected network determines where the asset and transaction exist, and a signature or approval can change permissions or trigger execution.

Checks before cross-network activity is a distinct part of understanding Multi-chain. Separate interface labels from on-chain facts: an address identifies an account, the selected network determines where the asset and transaction exist, and a signature or approval can change permissions or trigger execution. A repeatable sequence helps: verify the source, check the address and network, review the amount or permission, then keep the transaction hash and verify confirmation on-chain. Stop when details conflict.
