Optimized user experience, and easy wallet creation, import, backup

In order to reduce the learning cost of new users entering the blockchain world. Older users provide a smoother experience, and imToken has optimized the “onboarding” process.

If you download or reinstall imToken 2.4.10 for the first time, you will be pleasantly surprised to discover that the user guide has been completely renewed:

  • The more vivid wallet introduces the core features of imToken in a simple and interesting carousel illustration.

  • More intimate display of the Mnemonic phrase

(1) When creating an identity, the Mnemonic will be displayed in 12 squares, avoiding confusion of the sequence and lack of words in the backup;

(2) When recovering the identity, you find an auxiliary word association function and word error function. As we support BIP 39, inputting the first few letters of the word is enough, which reduces the cost of inputting the letters one by one; when the word is wrong, the corresponding prompt will appear “The word is invalid/wrong", and the problem can finally be found!

BTC OP_RETURN

Simply put, OP_RETURN is a function of "storing information" in the Bitcoin network. This function supports writing Hexadecimal information to the Bitcoin network. "OP_RETURN" can use the irreversibility as advantage of the BTC network to permanently record important information or use this information to perform special operations (such as ChainX mining and more).
