Q1. Let us know about your project and where the idea for TP wallet came from.
Sam: I am Sam, the promotion manager from TokenPocket! And I’d want to introduce TokenPocket to all of you first!
TokenPocket is the world’s leading multi-chain self-custodial wallet, which supports mainstream public chains including BTC, ETH, BSC, TRON, Polygon, Solana, HECO, Klaytn, Avalanche, OKC, HSC, Fantom, Polkadot, Kusama, etc.

TokenPocket has provided reliable services for over 20 million users around the world. The number of monthly active users exceeds 3.5 million and the users are located in more than 200 countries around the world.
Multichain Host: Thanks for your detailed introduction! I remember TP Wallet was founded in 2018. It’s not that long ago, but it’s growing quite well.TP Wallet seems to be a powerful DApp Store,Right? Any popular DApp will almost immediately appear in TokenPocket wallet. TokenPocket wallet is not only a wallet, it also has the properties of news media, including news, articles and market prices, which can meet the multi-directional needs of investorsTrust now we all can’t wait to use The TP wallet,The most brilliant decentralized wallet
Q2. Can you please tell us more about TokenPocket, maybe about the functions, the interface, etc?
Sam:Actually, TokenPocket is a decentralized wallet and as I said before, the assets in TokenPocket are all controlled by the users. But to optimize users’ experience and strength the user guide, we’ve promoted and developed many interesting functions.
1. Support mainstream public chains.
TokenPocket supports mainstream public chains including BTC, ETH, BSC, TRON, Polygon, Solana, HECO, Klaytn, Avalanche, OKC, HSC, Fantom, Polkadot, Kusama, etc.
In TokenPocket, you can view all your assets on different chains, including the tokens, NFTs, and Defi, all of them will be shown on the “Assets” page!
And also, it’s very easy to sail through TokenPocket, I mean, TokenPocket is not just a wallet that you just need to create or import your private key or recovery phrase and view your assets on different public chains, it’s a multifunctional wallet.
2. Natively integrated with Transit Swap.
In 2022, we have natively integrated with Transit Swap on the “Market” page, users can swap tokens directly in Transit Swap and we now support cross-chain swap, which is safer, and easy to use, and faster!
And Transit Swap now supports Fantom and the other public chains, users just need to finish some simple steps then can finish swap or cross-chain swap operation on Transit Swap.
3. Customize the wallet skin.
You can customize your wallet by yourself!
TokenPocket supports setting NFT as the avatar, assets card, and the background of the receiving page. You can set-customize your favorite wallet with different NFTs! For example, you can use the NFTs on Fantom to set your Fantom wallet’s avatar, asset card, and the background of the receiving page. It’s very interesting.
4. TokenPocket supports the dark mode!
Nowadays, many people will confuse the light mode at night. To optimize users’ experience, TokenPocket supports the dark mode to help users to use more convenient to use the TokenPocket wallet at night.
5. TokenPocket supports the candlestick chart now!
Actually, not just the candlestick chart, users can also buy or sell tokens on this page! Especially in the current market environment, the candlestick chart is just needed for users.
Multichain Host: I see as u mentioned before,the assets in TokenPocket are all controlled by the users. — — users can swap tokens directly in Transit Swap and we now support cross-chain swap, which is safer, and easy to use, and faster! We are also reallly looking forward to your more intriguing functions which have been promoted and developed.
Q3. Actually, we all know that the wallet started in form of a browser extension. Would TokenPocket think that it is them who shaped the user behavior by guiding them to use mobile APPs or TokenPocket was generated by the user’s natural needs for a mobile wallet?
Sam:Emm. That’s an interesting question. Love to hear that!
In my opinion, a browser extension is a leader of the original crypto users, they use the browser extension and access different kinks of the website and execute the operation.
Today, I also want to share the TokenPocket extension wallet with all the audiences. TokenPocket extension wallet is A Crypto Wallet and A Gateway to Web3. You can use the TokenPocket Extension wallet to connect with all kinds of websites, like GameFi, DeFi, etc.
Back to the question, with the development of crypto, I don’t think it’s the browser extension that guides the users to use mobile APPs like TokenPocket wallet. I mean, it’s generated by the users’ natural need for a mobile wallet.
You can’t always take your computer all the way and the decentralized wallet is the best choice for users to catch up with the market all the time.
Multichain Host: welldone,ser. So based on the specialty&functions of TPwallet, Could you share with us for our community members?
Q4. In addition, wallet security is very important for all crypto users! Can you please share some experience and some tips for all the users?
Sam:Yes! Asset security is the most important thing when you use the decentralized wallet. And I have two tips to share with you!
- Do not share your secret recovery phrase and private key with anyone!
When creating the wallet, you are reminded to make a backup, and it will only be stored on your device. The secret recovery phrase and private key are the only proof to restore the wallet and control the assets. If you share your private key or secret recovery phrase with a third party, they can control and transfer your assets without your permission! So, private key and secret recovery phrase are very important!
By the way, you need to back up your private key and secret recovery phrase and store them in a safe place, cause you can only get your assets back by one of them!
2. Do not approve randomly!
Approve is to allow the third party to control your assets without your permission, which means they can transfer all your assets away without your permission. So it is very dangerous to approve. Please be more careful when you execute the “Approve” operation! Be sure to determine whether the code is verified and open-sourced, whether it has a code audit, whether the team is trustworthy, etc.!
Ordinary, the scammers and hackers will DM you via Telegram, Twitter, Discord, or other social media. Most of them will share the links and ask you to open the link to approve or join their high-yield projects.
According to our survey, there are many approve scams that happen on TRON. The scammers and hackers will advise you to participate in their staking activities to earn TRX. For example, they will introduce the high-yield project to you and ask you to stake your TRX and a few days later, you can get high rebates. In addition, many scammers and hackers will unilaterally declare that they have cooperated with TokenPocket and claim that “we” are holding a TRX airdrop activity.
In these cases, they are 100% scammers and hackers!
Attention, all the projects that claim to be high-yield projects are scams! If your assets are approved to be transferred by others, the assets cannot be retrieved and the crypto wallets have nothing to do with this situation.
- The token security detection function is officially launched!
This week, TokenPocket has launched the token security detection function to help users to detect fake tokens. With the help of this, many users can directly know whether the token they held or want to buy is secure or not.
Multichain Host: Before moving to the next thrilling part/Before we wrap,we are gonna have our final question.That everybody wanna let me talk about the cooperation with Multichain.
Q5. What are your views on cross-chain bridges such as Multichain and how do you feel about our collaboration?
Sam:I think the cross-chain bridge is a very convenient tool, not just for me, I think all the audience here agree with my opinion. Especially when I need to buy the token on BNB Chain but I only hold ETH assets, I can use cross-chain bridge like Multichain to do a cross-chain swap. At the same time, Multichain can make the cross-chian interaction easier, I mean, I am not only keen on the interface but I’d also love to interaction with simple steps on Multichain, then I can complete the swap the assets between different public chains.
With the depth collaboration with Multichain, both of us will be committed to provide the better experience to all the users. To TokenPocket, we’ve got a reliable partner and we can work together to build a crypto world. To Multichain, TokenPocket provides a traffic portal, more and more users can know more about Multichain and interact with Multichain through TokenPocket.
Multichain Host: Thanks for sharing, Sam.
