In October 2025, the crypto industry made notable strides in both multi-chain ecosystems and regulatory security. From Ethereum confirming its Fusaka upgrade to IBM launching an institutional digital asset platform, and Japan considering loosening restrictions on banks holding crypto assets — the integration between traditional finance and blockchain infrastructure is clearly accelerating.
Keeping pace with this momentum, imToken continued to enhance both multi-chain support and user security. This month, we added support for the Katana network, enabled Monad airdrop queries, and expanded DApp access within the BSC ecosystem — empowering users to manage their tokens and engage in multi-chain interactions with greater safety and ease.
Let’s look back at the highlights from October 👇
