Topic: Can I 'delete' useless tokens from my wallet? - page 6. (Read 4947 times)
No, I also have a lot of useless tokens and want to throw them away. The only way is to send to another wallet, and that takes a lot of gass.
I don't think you can do that. What you can do is transfer the token to other address.
Just transfer it to burn address like 0x000... and it will be gone from your wallet.
But why do you want to get rid of it ? You need gas fee to move the token out of your wallet.

Some wallets like Atomic wallet let you select the tokens you want to see and just ignore the ones you want. This way your real balance will not be affected by trash tokens. This is a really useful feature.
And i agree that those tokens don't worth the fees to send them away. Is just spend gas (fees) to take them out of your wallet, that sounds just like a waste of money. So, the best thing to do is to configure your wallet to ignore them. At least that's the free way to deal with them.

If you really want to delete them in the sense of that they shouldn't be on your wallet anymore you probably have to send them to another adress so they are gone. Some people in this thread posted already a burn adress.
But then you also have to pay a transaction fee for every dead coin you want so send there. But i think most wallets also have the ability to hide tokens, which means to not show tokens that you don't want to be shown.

Not necessary and avoid it. If unless token in my wallet it's not a bad effect so doesn't matter how much do you have unless token. Although i know many unless token come from airdrop and bounty so i hope your unless token may not purchase spend money. Otherwise if you want delete unless token from your wallet then keep back transfer.
I dont know maybe you can send that to another adrress but you will cost some gas. I also have some useless tokens in my wallet that i got from bounty campaign. I keep it as collection to remain how many projects that i participated 
That could help us to select during the next project. When I see my bad research to receive these useless tokens, I will realize my fault. I'm keeping my tokens at my address. We shouldn't send tokens to another wallet, now that's will cost us more than we imagine. Ethereum blockchain transaction cost is different to send the same tokens.
Which wallet are you talking about specifically?
You can send to a random address if you want, I think this is the only solution but only waste your ethereum for gas, so maybe a better option is you keep it and ignore it, no one knows about the future, maybe your shitcoin will give you benefits. You the see burning address above, maybe the developers regret his actions.
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 
yes, you can send shitcoin that you have at a random address or to the burning address "https://etherscan.io/address/0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dead", but my advice is that you better to hold shitcoin you have, because to send these coin you need gas (transaction fee), so it will waste your money.

It actually will cost you for transferring it. And you know and I that gas fees today are not that cheap anymore. We tend to complain if the fees are high and for those people that have useless tokens on their wallets, that's what you need to do. I also think that you can also remove that by hiding its appearance on that wallet. I can't remember that contract address which you are allowed to do in MEW so that any token can be visible or be hidden. 
As far as I know, it is difficult to delete coins that have no value in a personal wallet moreover ERC 20 or ethereum wallets, I got a lot of shitcoin from dead projects can only see or be such a bad display in my wallet so my suggestion is to just enjoy it
You can donate such tokens to the charity organizations, surely they will hold it until the day listing on the exchange. I have seen such new projects that aim to collect useless tokens. Another alternative option is to send these tokens to the mentioned ETH address: 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 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
You can create an address and send them, but I feel that's not economical considering the fact that the gas fee is quite high and the tokens are worthless. It would be best to abandon the wallet full of worthless tokens and create a new wallet that would be censored against worthless tokens.

Why not just ignore them,if it is me ,i definitely choose ignore instead of send them,cause send them means consume gas,and consume gas means lost money.Besides,maybe one day these dead coin would resurrect miraculously with a nice price.Although this ia a very small probability,but there is a advertising commentary "Nothing is impossible".
You cannot delete the token from your wallet, but you can still move it to a new address. But of course you will be wasting gas doing it. my advice is just leave the token and don't need to care about it.

Hmmm, the pains of seeing useless tokens in our wallets is something else entirely. This is because most projects which were invested in turned out to be scams and hence leading to the token being useless, and wherein the team has made away with the money generated, users or investors are left with a useless token which will always serve as a reminder, and it's painful.
However, regarding your question, sadly there is nothing anyone can do about it not even the team of the project. It is a one way thing, and that is, you can only send it out but the question is, since the token is useless does it make any sense spending gas fees or transaction fees on it? As for me it doesn't especially when taking into account the gas fees of a blockchain like Ethereum. So that left us with one option, abandon the wallet and go for another.
You can, but I don't think so because you need a lot of GAS to do it. You can create new wallet addresses and keep using them, forgetting your old wallet if they are not important to you.
We can completely leave them in place and ignore them.
Good suggestion. I wanted to give him this advice. But you gave before me.We can completely leave them in place and ignore them.

Yes, it is possible to remove tokens from dead projects/tokens that are totally useless and worth $0 from your wallet to others wallet. But it will take a lot of transaction fees. If your wallet is not very favorite and important to you, then there is no need to do it.

I also have some dead tokens in my wallet. These are of on use. I wanted to delete these but couldn’t. Parhaps these can't be deleted. You can open a new wallet if you want or ignore the tokens.
As said in the previous post, that is a very good decision, considering we all never know, what will happen to a project for the next 5 or 10 years.
A lot of people seem to be making their junk tokens into this wallet, and now let's take a look at the balance of the wallet
Dead Token Address: https://etherscan.io/address/0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dead
There seems to be some valuable shittoken, although it looks like this is a wallet used to burn tokens
I dont know maybe you can send that to another adrress but you will cost some gas. I also have some useless tokens in my wallet that i got from bounty campaign. I keep it as collection to remain how many projects that i participated
