Understand the wallet

Understand the wallet is an essential part of understanding Getting Started. A dependable workflow breaks the task into checks: confirm the account and network, understand the action, verify the address and amount, keep the transaction hash, and use a block explorer to verify the final chain state instead of relying only on the wallet screen. imtoken does not ask users to enter seed phrases, private keys or recovery phrases into content pages. On-chain transactions generally cannot be reversed by a wallet provider, so confirmation should always follow the user’s own review.

When something is unclear, stop and re-check through a trusted entry point rather than following an unfamiliar link, screenshot instruction or remote-control request. A small test transaction can be useful before a high-value transfer.
