Introducing a one-stop Cosmos solution …

Cosmos aims to solve two current issues in blockchains: Limited scalability and interoperability.

As a cross-chain project, Cosmos is committed to connecting multiple chains into one big, interconnected network, promoting the free flow of value, sharing the same goal with imToken.

Based on Proof-Of-Stake (short: PoS), Cosmos introduces the staking economy and new forms of governance. Unlike Proof-Of-Work (PoW), PoS allows a huge number of users to participate in securing the blockchain.

In short, with imToken, you can now …

  • Send & Receive ATOM (+ technically Cosmos IBC tokens) ✅ (with custom Memo and fingerprint/face-id)
  • Delegate ATOMs and earn interest ✅
  • Re-delegate to other validators ✅
  • Withdraw of delegated ATOMs ✅
  • Watch the Staking as it happens, live in your wallet ✅

Soon adding support for:

  • Vote on governance proposals
  • Exchange of ATOM in Tokenlon (now live, see here) ✅
  • imKey supports ATOM & Cosmos tokens (now live) ✅
  • Enabling the Cosmos fee field, with a default value
  • Delegate to Basket of multiple validators (now live) ✅
  • Bunch re-invest (now live) ✅
  • Support Send & Receive for all Cosmos IBC tokens (once that feature is enabled via vote)

👮 As a non-custodial mobile wallet imToken does not hold or have access to user’s funds.

🏦 imToken’s core code is open source and security audited by two independent security firm Slowmist and Cure53 (see). For this new release, we also had the new Cosmos features security audited (see).

🔑 The new imKey bluetooth hardware wallet that connects to imToken will support ATOMs soon and support for Ledger’s Nano X is in research as well.
