Topic: The problem with Myetherwallet (Read 372 times)
Perhaps your transactions are not executed, because you are exposing a very small price for GAS. MyEthereumWallet is the safest purse for ERC 20 tokens, the main thing is not to use your private key anywhere except the official site, then you will not be hacked.
- MyEtherWallet (MEW) is one of the dedicated wallets to store tokens that are run on the Ethereum platform (ERC20).
Valuable as one of the most trusted ethereum archives as well as being the most widely used in the cryptocurrency market.
- MyEtherWallet does not have a double-layer security feature (2FA) that only has a Password, Private Key, and Keystore / JSON File.
So, you need to know for yourself how to protect your personal information on the Internet. Especially things related to your money, property.
To avoid the case of your hacked MEW wallet you should pay attention to the following:
- Do not visit unknown, unreliable websites
- Bookmark the MyEtherWallet.com address to avoid spoofing.
- Absolutely not let anyone know your Private Key
- Computers should use copyrighted anti-virus software
These are some basic ways to increase the security of your wallet MEW as well as other accounts such as the exchange, Coinbase wallet ....

Lately, I'm having some problems in Myetherwallet.
if Myetherwallet implementing 2FA might be safer.
- Sending a token always fails.
- Losing tokens.
- Token retrieval with no fee.

It is not MEW that is having problems, it's the congested eth network.
Before sending anything in eth network, always check https://ethgasstation.info/ so you can know what gas to you.
So far, I have not encountered any issue using MEW and using Ledger with MEW.

I don't understand with your case because i always success when sending tokens except im out of gas.
And i wonder why you can lose your token if it was failed ? Maybe you got into the phishing site ?
Always check the SSL bar in your browser to avoid phishing attempt.

To simplify what others have said, you might be having problems because you are not spending enough "gas (gwei)" to make sure your transactions reach their destination. When you don't have enough gas, your tokens get stuck on the network and you will have to wait a certain amount of time before they return to you.
What you can do now is to simply wait for your tokens to return then resend them with a higher gas amount (preferably based on ethgasstation.info).

Yes, This is a common problem we encounter in the ether wallet. There are some cases that the ether wallet is malfunctioning. Sometimes it loses token and sometimes gives no retrieval fee. Make sure you tell to anyone your private key because they might hacked your account. The problem for other people is they forgot to remember their private key. Therefore they cannot retrieve it anymore. - Sending a token always fails.

Mew just provides and creates your own ETH wallet with their private keys they don't offer some security protocols like 2FA because the creation directs from the ETH blockchain but they provide UTC files which act as an encrypted file to access your private key like they said it is either you lack some gas or the token is still locked about the other two questions, what do you mean by losing tokens? hacked wallet? can you check it on the etherscan if that token is still in your possession? Token retrieval like you can see the display of your token from MEW, of course, it doesn't you are not transferring anything yet.
There are many problems with MEW. Especially hacked, sometimes very worried. I think I should put on the exchange.
These are fundamental errors, and people using MEW have these errors. I have done a lot of Etherdelta transactions, and transactions often appear to fail, and every transaction is costly.
Like others said, mew is secured as long as you don't tell anyone your pv keys and visit the real website. Make sure that you have enough eth to cover the gas for tx. If you have enough eth to pay for gas but still failed to send your tokens, maybe it's because the token itself is still locked.

I never had a problem with MEW, Maybe you don't enough eth balance to cover the gas fee when doing some transaction. Also, make sure before send token/eth check ethgasstation first to know how much required gas to sending a token/eth to another address...
I think we dont need implementing 2FA, because Metamask is enough to secure your wallet from hackers.
I still use myetherwallet since last year and I until now I did not experienced any problem with this wallet. I know it is safe wallet and I have a lot of token there and atleast one there's no token dissapear or gone.
Check also the ethereum that you have because maybe it's not enough your ethereum for the fee.

I've been using Myetherwallet, which is a very convenient ETH wallet. For the problem you say, I think network congestion has caused your failure to transfer your accounts. Try to adjust your gas.
Failed token sent can be because you don't have enough ethereum in your wallet which works as gas to send the tokens or maybe because you use a very low gas. You can only lose your tokens if another person has access to your private keys. Or maybe your tokens are not displaying in balance, you can add tokens manually so that it shows up. I don't understand what you mean by token retrieval with no fee.
mew is still working good to me. there are 1 time that it failed to send because of gas limit and adding gas limit solve the problem. also look for the current Gwei in ethgasstation.
these days myetherwallet improves gass, many transactions fail due to gass shortage, try to improve your gass, possibly fail because your gass is too little
Check your gas price and keep your private key really really secure
actually this is just a problem with gas, but to be honest I am also quite worried about myetherwallet. I hope that myetherwaller will be safe anytime
So far i haven't had any issues with mysetherwallet. I generally use the default amount of gas which i know is more than i should be paying but at least it will get to the destination, better than underpaying and leaving the transfer in limbo
I don't think 2fa would bring a strong security and that's possible, only solution seems to be ledger and trezor for now. Lots of people have suffered from mew 
If your Myetherwallet are not secured already, make a new one so that you can start another again and this time make sure that all details must secured including your private key.
