What’s New About Imtoken 2.0?The imToken 2.0 browser is useful because it supports the most prominent dApps and decentralized exchanges. Additionally, the new browser introduces a brand new engagement channel that customers can use.
Moreover, there is the added functionality which makes users able to access multiple dApps without having to log in and also the browser permitting fast payments using the supported token a user desires. As a result, qualified users receive all the support they need from the app. The support is in the form of displaying their dApps in the new browser and instantly getting exposure to millions of users.
What’s more? TokenIon, which is the browser’s decentralized exchange, offers a couple of unique trading functions. This means that users can utilize the different trading functions for their varying needs and circumstances.
The function “Instant Exchange”, picks the top exchange from multiple reserves in a network. This enables token-to-token conversion done at market price at the convenience of only a few clicks. The order book and spot trading function on the other hand supports trading capabilities like those of traditional exchanges.
The multi-chain wallet has also made transactions and wallet management simpler. This is achieved through imToken enabling users to import cryptocurrency wallets under just one pneumonic passphrase.
This announcement came hand in hand with the opening of imToken’s new headquarters in Singapore. The CEO summarized all these saying:
