Wallet of the Week: imToken

Taking your first steps into web3 can be overwhelming, with a plethora of wallet choices at your fingertips. In our “Wallet of the Week” series, we put the spotlight on one wallet and share why we think they’re worth checking out.

Three things we love about imToken

imToken’s mission is to build the most reliable and intuitive digital wallet, so that everyone can enjoy equal access to the tokenized world. So, what makes it stand out?

Decode your onchain activity, effortlessly: For everyday users to even begin transacting crypto, they have to be able to understand what they’re doing. imToken includes essential information such as time, status, and type of transaction in all records, and it even decodes transactions on Ethereum and Arbitrum to offer detailed overviews of onchain activity.

Transact with peace of mind: Crypto is, unfortunately, rife with scams. To safeguard users’ digital assets, imToken has implemented a comprehensive risk control system that blocks risky tokens from the wallet’s interface and controls domain name-type tokens. This prevents users from unknowingly accessing fraudulent websites and losing their assets. Plus, you can use your imToken wallet with hardware wallets, such as imKey, to keep your private key offline.

Enjoy the multi-chain, multi-token journey: You can do a lot with imToken. In addition to managing assets from different blockchains as well as NFTs, you can also take advantage of its support for Ethereum L2s such as Arbitrum, Optimism, and zkSync as well as EVM-compatible chains such as Polygon, Avalanche, and Binance Smart Chain. Switching between mainnet and other networks is easy — with just one click!

What’s next?

Besides recently upgrading to WalletConnect v2.0, imToken will support the upcoming Shanghai upgrade and enhance its non-custodial staking service, which has helped Ethereum enthusiasts stake more than 40,000 ETH and become validator nodes on mainnet.

The wallet is also working on enhancing its transaction preview feature, which will enable users to understand their transaction outcomes before signing, and boosting its security measures against malicious websites.
