This page organizes Getting Started around practical decisions rather than promotional claims. It explains what to inspect before an action, what evidence can be checked afterward and where third-party or network risk remains.
Never share your seed phrase, private key or verification code. Verify the address and network before transferring.
Start with wallet concepts
A useful way to understand Getting Started is to map the objects involved before taking action. With wallet concepts, distinguish what a wallet interface displays from the state recorded by the network. With creation and backup, confirm which chain the request belongs to, which address is involved and what network fee may apply. imtoken emphasizes information that can be checked independently. Before sending, signing or approving, identify the object, network and purpose of the request instead of relying on a single button label. In day-to-day use, creation and backup often determines whether an action can be interpreted correctly. Treat addresses and networks as an audit trail: status, transaction hash, block height or contract address can show whether a request was broadcast, confirmed or is still pending. first transfer deserves extra scrutiny because third-party interfaces, smart contracts and network conditions can change. Review the relevant fields one by one and retain enough on-chain information to verify the outcome outside the original page.

Getting Started is also about habits that remain useful over time. Periodically reviewing wallet concepts can reveal network, balance or permission changes, while keeping track of addresses and networks makes later troubleshooting easier. A wallet normally cannot unilaterally reverse a transaction that the network has already confirmed, and external DApps or smart contracts can introduce their own risks. Good guidance therefore explains conditions, evidence and recovery options rather than presenting any step as completely risk-free.

Practical check · creation and backup
Security boundaries matter when dealing with first transfer. Seed phrases, private keys and verification codes are recovery or authentication secrets and should never be requested through an ordinary web page. For actions involving creation and backup and addresses and networks, focus on the address, network, amount, contract recipient and permission scope. If the source looks suspicious, the domain does not match expectations, a permission is broader than necessary or the device environment is not trusted, stop and verify before continuing.

Practical check · addresses and networks
The goal of learning Getting Started is independent judgment. A practical sequence is to define the purpose, verify wallet concepts, check creation and backup, use addresses and networks or other on-chain records to confirm the result, and then consider any ongoing effect related to first transfer. This process cannot remove every form of risk, but it reduces common errors caused by network confusion, skipped details and excessive permissions. Consistent verification is more dependable than trusting any single interface cue.
