Send & Receive

Use address, network, amount, gas, and transaction hash checks for sending and receiving assets.

A transfer should move through a deliberate sequence: choose the network, verify the address and asset, review fees and amount, then confirm the transaction under the user’s control.

01

Confirm the conditions before starting

Send & Receive is easiest to understand when its boundaries are explicit. A receiving address only makes sense in the correct network context, so the network should still be confirmed after copying the address. A small test transfer can reduce operational risk when using an unfamiliar destination or network, although normal network fees still apply. A label in the interface should never replace the network, address, contract, or transaction evidence that identifies what is actually happening.

Use address, network, amount, gas, and transaction hash checks for sending and receiving assets. On-chain transfers generally cannot be reversed by a wallet acting alone, which makes pre-send review especially important. A transfer should move through a deliberate sequence: choose the network, verify the address and asset, review fees and amount, then confirm the transaction under the user’s control. If the interface and on-chain evidence disagree, pause the workflow and keep verifiable references such as the transaction hash, network name, or contract address before taking another action.

02

Follow the operation in a deliberate order

In a real Send & Receive workflow, ask three questions in order: what object is involved, what authority is being requested, and where the result should appear. Before sending, review the address, network, asset, amount, and network fee instead of focusing on a single field. A receiving address only makes sense in the correct network context, so the network should still be confirmed after copying the address. If one answer is unclear, urgency from a pop-up, countdown, or stranger is not a reason to continue.

After broadcast, the transaction hash can be used to see block inclusion, execution result, and confirmation progress. For actions that can change blockchain state, review the address, network, asset, amount, or permission scope again at the final confirmation step. Afterward, verify the outcome with transaction history or on-chain data instead of immediately repeating the action.

Key checksConfirm that the request really belongs to the Send & Receive context rather than assuming rules from another network or permission model.
03

Verify the result with on-chain evidence

On-chain evidence should be used to cross-check what Send & Receive shows in the interface. On-chain transfers generally cannot be reversed by a wallet acting alone, which makes pre-send review especially important. A small test transfer can reduce operational risk when using an unfamiliar destination or network, although normal network fees still apply. A trustworthy block explorer can expose transaction status, blocks, addresses, and contract information, while the explorer itself should also be reached from a dependable source.

Before sending, review the address, network, asset, amount, and network fee instead of focusing on a single field. This helps distinguish an interface delay from a genuine network, contract, or permission problem. The distinction matters because the correct response to a delayed display is very different from the response to a failed or malicious request.

04

Common mistakes and risk points

Risk review around Send & Receive is not only about technical vocabulary; request origin and user pressure matter too. A small test transfer can reduce operational risk when using an unfamiliar destination or network, although normal network fees still apply. A receiving address only makes sense in the correct network context, so the network should still be confirmed after copying the address. Look-alike domains, fake support, airdrop traps, excessive approvals, clipboard substitution, and shared devices can all turn an ordinary workflow into a dangerous one.

After broadcast, the transaction hash can be used to see block inclusion, execution result, and confirmation progress. imtoken will never ask for a seed phrase, private key, or verification code. Third-party DApps and smart contracts must be assessed independently, and a wallet connection should never be treated as proof that the third party is safe.

05

Security checks after completion

A durable Send & Receive routine is simple: confirm context, review the request, and verify the result. On-chain transfers generally cannot be reversed by a wallet acting alone, which makes pre-send review especially important. Before sending, review the address, network, asset, amount, and network fee instead of focusing on a single field. Connections and permissions that are no longer needed should be reviewed and removed when appropriate.

After broadcast, the transaction hash can be used to see block inclusion, execution result, and confirmation progress. Blockchain actions generally cannot be reversed unilaterally by a wallet, so checking the address, network, amount, authority, and intended outcome before confirmation is more reliable than trying to recover from a preventable mistake afterward. A transfer should move through a deliberate sequence: choose the network, verify the address and asset, review fees and amount, then confirm the transaction under the user’s control.

  • Confirm that the request really belongs to the Send & Receive context rather than assuming rules from another network or permission model.
  • Verify the relevant address, network, asset, amount, or approval scope against the intended outcome.
  • Do not provide a seed phrase, private key, recovery phrase, or verification code to another person or website.
  • Use a transaction hash, contract address, or block explorer when on-chain verification is needed.
  • If the source, domain, or expected result cannot be explained clearly, stop before confirming.
