Topic: Myetherwallet; erc20 tokens disappear! (Read 361 times)
I have never watched the loss of the erc20 token from MyetherWallet. Even if swap occurs, old and new tokens are still displayed in the wallet. But there is one thing that I have already noticed, if you added this token to manual on one device, then you need to repeat the same actions on another device. If you entered your wallet from another computer, this token will be displayed again.
So back in 2017 I buy some erc20 token PAY. Seemed like a good idea as it was the TenX visa card thing...
As recomended I stashed them in myetherwallet.
TenX/PAY goes south big time.
I shoulda cashed out, but the wallet was a pita to use so I just hung on.
Then myetherwallet makes a gazillion changes and a new wallet, adds the ledger access.
I never did put any ETH with the wallet.
After a long spell I check on my tokens and they freaking disapeared,
No history no nothing except that I can sign in with my private keys.
I'm just glad I didn't buy any more than the silly PAY tokens.
I think I just became a pure BTC maximalist, and will trade the few ETH I got for BTC..
and screw myetherwallet,

I don't exactly understand in some of your explanation mate, just like what token you are talking about that has been disappeared?
Because in your statement, its hard to believe that your token will be gone without any transaction happen. Unless, if there is someone have an access to your personal account, or you might click some of the phishing site where the hackers can only do that. Well, anyway better be careful next time dude.
That's interesting, erc20 tokens don't just disappear.
You should be able to track where they went on the blockchain easily using ethexplorer.
It's already built in to myetherwallet, just click on it and you should be able to see.
Maybe your tokens are still there in the wallet but you have to load the smart contract address again?
Or, was there a swap maybe? Or PAY migrated to a different blockchain?
Whatever the case, it is worth it to take the time to find them, you never know if it will rise again.
Just look at ENJ, it crashed just like all the others than suddenly, this year, rose like crazy.
Even if there was a swap, the old tokens will still be displayed only it won't be useful any longer. Migrating to a new blockchain doesn't make the token disappear either but you won't be able to transfer it out once you miss the migration date line.

Everyone is becoming a Bitcoin maximalist. For you to have bought the coin during ico, there should be a transaction hash tokens don't disappear except its a spam token which $Pay isn't.

Found my tokens!
I'd transposed two letters on the private key...
Well I feel really fooking dumb
I'd checked several times and missed the mistake..
Big OOPS!!!

This is why you should always confirm via etherscan or ethplorer if your tokens are really gone before posting. Your stress could have been avoided had you taken a few minutes checking. Anyway, glad you had it figured out now. EDIT:
Maybe you can now update your original post and indicate that you were able to solve the issue.

Many complaints we got this forum about losing funds in myetherwallet. Most of the time people lose the funds on accessing the phishing sites which is similar like MEW site.
We need to be careful while accessing the wallet by checking its URL first.

^thanks I give that a try.

Is there any outgoing pay token transaction from your wallet ? If not , then it is still in your wallet mate . Maybe you need to add it manualy to a list of tokens in order to see it in the list . Press "add custom token" button and enter all necessary data for this token .
Upd .
Just checked mew and seems that PAY token is in list of standart tokens . Press "show all tokens" and then find a "pay" token in the list and press "click to load" . Now it will show your balance of PAY tokens
I found this strange for token to disappear without any case of hack, maybe you should check ethexplorer or etherscan before concluding your token has disappeared, it has happened to me before and i was able to see it on explorer while i can't see it in my wallet.
No transaction is a kind a weird , Blockchain has all transactions the in and out of your wallet. I don't consider a bug either, check it in ethplorer or etherscan maybe it's the wrong wallet .
What do you mean disappeared? In the blockchain, everything can be traced and find out what and where it went/came. Most likely in MEW this token is simply not displayed, try adding it manually (as advised above).
Im not sure about that but it seems like there was a bug, and i heard that tenx already issued a new token but correct me if im wrong about that. He must be doubled checked or his wallet already hacked by hackers. Kinda what I'm thinking. Some sort of bug, the only token in the wallet was PAY. And was going to use the history to claim the new TenX token being issued.
If the wallet was hacked there'd be history of some transactions, hacked or not hacked.
There was only one transaction by me which was to put in the tokens.
I was about to add some ETH for 'gas' purpose but now not sure whether to bother.
I'm also thinking I must be doing something wrong, or missing something kinda simple.
Apparently I still have the wallet and an address.
The whole TenX thing pisses me off.
Along with myetherwallet requiring ETH to move the tokens.
But does the wallet now require ETH just to display the transaction history?
Sorta confusing it is!
That said I never could figure out how to make ETH work on the Ledger wallet.
Maybe what I need to do is shoot a tiny bit of ETH into the myetherwallet address and see what happens!

If you missed token swap, then contact team and they will surely help you, I think that they will send you a code and you will call a smart contract and you will receive your new tokens.

can you share your eth address that has the tokens? because i never saw a person that lost his tokens from his wallet,
maybe you entered your private key into a phishing MEW or you just forget to add a custom token after you login into the MEW

That can't happen on the blockchain. All your transactions are recorded. Please check your wallet address on etherscan as well as all its transactions. You may have missed some of that.
My understanding is that your ERC20 tokens were stolen? Tokens will not disappear for no reason. You can query them on the block chain. It is recommended to use this website for queries: https://ethplorer.io/address
Even if token was stolen, it will appear on his etherium transaction as one that was sent out and the address it was sent to too. Have never had experience of a reversed transaction with blockchain but this one appears strange, the easiest way is to search on ethplorer.io
