Before you act

Check the account, network and asset identity before moving funds or granting permissions.

Recovery material

Keep seed phrases and private keys offline and never provide them to support staff or websites.

Start with 创建钱包 and 导入钱包 in context

In the context of Create & Backup, create & Backup becomes easier to use when balances, accounts and networks are treated as related information rather than isolated interface elements. 创建钱包 only makes sense on the network where the asset exists, and 导入钱包 should be checked against the account you actually intend to use. A familiar token name or logo is not enough to identify an asset. The contract, network and transaction context provide stronger evidence and should be reviewed before funds move.

For Create & Backup, for Create & Backup, a useful review of 创建钱包 separates three things: what can be checked before an action, what the signature or transaction will actually submit, and what can be verified after the network processes it. This separation reduces reliance on interface labels alone. When a third party is involved, verify the source independently; when recovery secrets are involved, keep them private and offline rather than sharing them for troubleshooting.

Where 助记词 fits into a real workflow

In the context of Create & Backup, 助记词 affects what the wallet can display and what a transaction will cost. Before receiving or sending, confirm the network first, then use 私钥 to identify the asset when that information is available. This ordering is useful on EVM-compatible chains where addresses can look similar even though the networks remain separate. It also prevents a wallet balance from being mistaken for proof that an asset can be used on any chain.

Practical checks for 导入钱包

  • Confirm the network and source before relying on 导入钱包.
  • Compare the request with the action you intended to perform.
  • Keep a transaction hash, contract address or other non-sensitive reference when verification is needed.

Make 私钥 part of every review

In the context of Create & Backup, including 私钥 in routine checks gives every action a clear pause point. Verify the asset, destination, network and request source before signing. When a DApp or token approval is involved, also ask which contract will receive permission and whether the requested scope matches the intended action. Connection, signing and approval are separate decisions and should not be collapsed into a single “continue” step.

Understand the limits around 离线备份

In the context of Create & Backup, 离线备份 is best read as evidence of what the network has recorded or is still processing. A wallet can organize transaction information, but it does not independently determine finality. If a balance has not updated or a transaction remains pending, use the transaction hash and a trusted block explorer rather than repeatedly broadcasting the same transfer. On-chain transactions generally cannot be reversed by the wallet alone.

Security reminder: Never share a seed phrase, private key or verification code. Review address, network and request details before confirming.

Use 恢复核对 to verify outcomes and maintain good habits

In the context of Create & Backup, long-term use improves when 恢复核对 becomes part of normal maintenance. Keep recovery information offline, review transaction hashes when something looks unexpected, and periodically remove DApp approvals that are no longer needed. imtoken staff will never ask for a seed phrase, private key or verification code. Any request for those secrets should be treated as a reason to stop and verify the source independently.
