That's not possible, instead, what you'll have to do is create another wallet address, send the token you want not to see in your main wallet to the new address by doing, you just see the tokens you want in your main wallet. I think the better solution is to use a safer new address for your ETH and leave the invalid ERC20 tokens in the old address. That way, you only move your money once.

Do not do that, holding doesn´t cost you anything and you didn´t know which coin will come to a life and make you rich.  Wink While sending them cost you your Ethers, so at the end you will be in a loss.

for me it is not a problem, I better keep it in my wallet to be a memory,
it is a little painful but after all it is the result of our hard work  Cheesy
Yes, it is all the result of our work. Just leave it in the wallet, maybe one day it will be valuable. Or the OP can create a new address and use it, no need to waste time and money moving those tokens to another wallet.

You can't really get rid of useless tokens from your wallet completely, as in 100% but you can do one of these two options

1. Send the worthless tokens to unknown eth address that you have no control over

2. Remove the contract address manually so that the tokens won't show again on your wallet unless you track your address with etherscan

I don't think that you would be able to delete them in your wallet permanently unless you send to into another wallet address and waste gas to cover up for trasanctions fees. If you don't them to see you can always have another wallet but don't just forget the old one cause you never know, one of those useless tokens might have an epic comeback and give you profitable rewards who have never gotten from any other tokens you have.

I think they do not interfere much (I personally do not), and life is full of surprises, everything is possible, and once you open your wallet you will be surprised at the amount.

If they are tokens and not coins you can delete their contact address so they won't display in your wallet interface, only add tokens you want on the interface, wallets like coinomi and trust wallet get the job done easily

As far as I know you can use some custom wallet and add the contract code of only the coins which you wanna view . This way other coins won't be visible in your wallet.

Yes! you can by sending them to unknown addresses but as you can see, this method requires you to pay some transaction fees. this is the only method that works. But keeping them in your wallet would be a good idea cause what if their developers will continue the project 5-10 years by now? that would make the price of their dead token pump and what if their price became like the other top altcoins in the market? and you have a huge amount of it. that would make you a millionaire in no time. If you are annoyed by looking at the huge list of shit coins in your wallet, better to make a new one and preserved that old wallet maybe you can just open it once every 6 months to check.
LOL, it's funny that you believe the "dead" token teams would continue their projects sometime in the future. It's good to be positive but sometime we need to look at the truth. No offend but cryptocurrency market has a lot of scam and that's what we need to accept. The more profits, the more risk you have to face! I'm a perfectionist so it's so annoyed to look at a huge list of shit coins but what else can we do? LOL :>

Just leave them as they cause no harm than wasting your gas fee on a dead token. Not all projects are here for real, most of them are scams, dump on investors without developing any actual product
I also always let tokens that have no price, but sometimes there are also tokens that have not been in the market but the team is still active, so don't ever throw away your tokens, who knows that tokens will later have a value in the future if the project team is still active

Is it possible to remove tokens from dead projects/tokens that are totally useless and worth $0 from my wallet? Do I just send them to a random address? I don't want to burden anyone else with those shitcoins  Cheesy
Cannot be deleted, it will always be in your wallet. Yes, of course, you can send it to another wallet, but it will hurt you because you need a transaction fee for it, isn't it better to use it for other, more useful transactions?

Well, what is your goal to want shitcoin to disappear from your wallet? if you want your wallet clean then just make a new wallet, simple right?

I will suggest that you should leave the so called useless tokens where that are for now while you try and use another wallet for precious ones. You never know what can happen to the so called useless tokens when the bull run finally come.

In order to remove all those tokens from your wallet, I believe it will take you a lot of money and time to make those transactions. So I recommend you continue to keep them in your wallet, and if you're still uncomfortable with them. You can create a new address and use it

Don't waste eth for gas fee if you think your coins are worthless. You'll just spend money on that if you do. Just use new wallet if those tokens bothers you. With that, you will not spend eth and at the same time you won't see those tokens/coins if you find them annoying.
You should not care about the gas and you can send these tokens with a very very small amount of gas and you will not expect your token to arrive in the default address in a short time. I guess people would like to see the token will be removed and there were only reliable assets on their wallet.

The best option is to ignore them. Your suggestion (i.e creating a new wallet) is also going to cost a lot of gas, as the token holder needs to move all of his useful tokens to the new address. And not a very good suggestion right now, given the high gas prices. But if it gives peace of mind, then I won't say anything against. Just move all your tokens to a new wallet and end the headache once and for all.

     There is no remove button to delete tokens from your wallet. You're probably referring to MyEtherWallet. You can only remove these tokens by sending its to another address, as if you were making a valuable transaction. However, it is good to keep them, maybe in the future these tokens will be worth something, even if now these tokens are shitcoin.
