Topic: Newb question about ETH and Tokens (receiving/sending) (Read 344 times)
Usually I use myetherwallet to get the tokens and then I sync it on etherdelta to make the buy / sell. For projects that you invest in to receive a token, you need to use the mytherwallet address, and from the myetherwallet you can send it anywhere.
How to get know which tokens are coming in my ETH contract address if it is not showing in ethplorer.io or etherscan.io ?
If it's not showing in etherscan or ethplorer and you are expecting a specific token, you can add the contract details like in myetherwallet.
Usually, an eth project provides their contract address, token symbol and decimal so you can add that manually. And it will appear in your eth wallet if you have that or will display 0, if you haven't received yet.

You can use your Ethereum address for receiving Ethereum and all of its tokens.
Just note that if you want to receive a token don't give sender an Ethereum address which is exported from an exchange or any other 3rd party. Use an address which you know its private key.

Thanks this was what I was looking for. You just use your Ethereum address and tokens are all managed under that single address.
The amount of tokens you (your address/wallet) have access to is usually defined in an array in the smart contract. To check your balance you need to know the ABI (looks like a js array) of the contract. You can go to myetherwallet.com to check the contract balance.
Go to the contract menu item, enter the contract address and ABI and select "balanceOf" and enter your address. This will poll the latest block and check the array for your balance.
It depends very much on the token but if it's a standard ERC20 token you can send the coins to other addresses via myetherwallet.

How do you receive tokens? Do you withdraw from exchange to your Ether address?
