If the coins are not listed then what you said is useful but if the coin got listed and then got delisted then nothing can be done and just forget it in your wallet and move on with other projects coins.

Before you pronounced them dead coins, make a little research on them. Find out if the dev are active, dormant or dead. In whatever category you find these coins, you can decide to keep hope alive or forget them. However once they are dead, there is nothing you can do with them than to leave them in your wallet.

Well, dead tokens mean it's worthless, but before judging about it, do some research and find some information about that tokens, because there is a chance that the tokens are listed on some market exchanger, and if that happens, your tokens will be worth something.

What did you actually mean by dead coins? Scam coins or what? If your coins don't have any exchange and the coin's team is gone away, then I think those coins are nothing. Though you may try on decentralized exchanges to sell them. Forkdelta, Etherdelta is good for selling this types of coin, but you will not get good money!

There's nothing you can do about dead tokens in your wallet. If only the tokens you have are from airdrops then you can get rid of the tokens in your wallet by buying more of it and eth for transaction fee.

I do not quite understand what you have under the dead token. In the case of fraud, the tokens of the scam project are turned into dust, but there are also such projects, but the flight of the project team does not always mean the imminent death of the token. For example, the Confido project's coin, which is recognized as a scam in the crypto community, is still being played on the stock exchange. So, as of the end of January, the capitalization of the CFD coin was $ 1.5 million, and for one coin they gave about $ 0.13

I can recommend how I work. I have 2 wallets, the first one is public, I receive bounty tokens there, the second one is my cold wallet.
As I see the token as a good one, I send tokens from the first wallet to the second one.
Such way i don`t have trash in my wallet and it is secure protected

I don't think there's is anything to be done with dead tokens or coins.
For a project to fail, either the team is inexperienced or negligent or did an escape scam, if such tokens were to get listed at any point, I doubt they would garner any interest in the market.

Due to scam and failed projects of last two years, eth, wave and neo wallets will be the cemetary of death tokens in the long term. For now holding them at your wallet is the best choice. They may have a small value in the future. Who knows? Some people also like to see hundreds of worthless token at their wallets.

Such dead tokens in your wallet may be as a result of failed project, scam project, both bounties and airdrops. All or some of them may remain dead forever, especially when they are no longer on coinmarketcap.com. If you got these tokens free of charge, then you have nothing to worry about. Otherwise, your money may have gone finally.

Out of interest, what dead tokens are they?

Someone mentioned that they could be exchangeable later on DEXs? Is this a market that could exist in the future? The buying/selling of unusable tokens, almost like antiques Smiley ?

Antiques are rare that's why they've become valuable but shitcoins aren't rare and its developers just used that to create money. So even you keep those shitcoins it won't have a decent value unless its developer is active and paying attention to their product but if it's not, don't hope for nothing.

But you can keep it and look at it so there's something that will remind you to be cautious in buying. Treat it as token of appreciation. Grin

You don't have to do anything. Just keep them. If they themselves do not rise in price then sooner or later with the growth of Bitcoin (BTC),Ethereum (ETH) these coins ,tokens can also rise and make a profit.

Between now and the next bubble is going to be very, very interesting as there'll be a shit ton of projects that die a horrible death.

However when mania returns there's no telling what will be brought back from the dead and pumped. It's a complete and utter lottery but I'll wager that people sitting on 'dead' coins may well get a surprise from a handful of them when someone presses the 'pump' button.

If they're still movable I'd put them on an exchange with an unfeasibly high sell price and perhaps one day I'll get a surprise.

This, although I'd prefer to keep them offline for time being, until there is actually a bullish altcoin market again. It could be years, after all.

Lots of dead coins from 2013 and early 2014 saw resurgences during the 2017 altcoin bubble. When the mania gets crazy enough, the market eventually starts buying up anything that hasn't already pumped. To be fair, that may not be true next time around, now that there are so many more altcoins. I really wouldn't be surprised, though. "Irrational exuberance" to use Alan Greenspan's expression, is a very powerful thing and most people underestimate the degree to which the market will get irrational.

It'll happen again, eventually.

First choose which Crypto you wish to exchange, If the coin you need to sell isn't right now on a trade and on another wallet, for example, Myetherwallet send it to a trade since we will offer it for Bitcoin. On the off chance that the crypto that you need to offer is as of now on a trade then no issue.

Edit: You need to know that the token has been added to an exchanger.

sorry about that little side note Wink, i have bad news for you, they are worth nothing. When something is worth nothing and you can't use it for anything usefull just leave it, forget it, let the loss motivate you to invest better next time for example in one real actually revolutionary cryptocurrency.

If the meaning of dead token is not listed by any market then there is nothing you can do but save it in the wallet.

but you can try your luck by offering to sell all your dead tokens to some forum or community, because maybe there is somenone who are interested in a

We all have plenty of those, nothing to worry about Smiley You could send them to the graveyard (some address with many zeros I believe) or just keep them hoping that miracle will come one day and they will arise...

I think I saw that there is a project (or a few of them) that tries to gather their members' coins from multiple airdrops worth a few cents each and then actually sell them (because it's quite impossible, plus pointless doing this yourself with coins worth a few cents). I think this is a great idea because anyone who was ever involved in any type of airdrops has such coins, but it's mostly great for whoever is taking fat percentages out of this, not much for people who are sending them millions of coins basically hoping for nothing. But I might consider this one day Smiley Not sure about the name of the project, sorry, try to search the forum.

Thank you all

You just say it was "dead" so basically they are not functional nor have value. Since it will not harmed your MyEtherWallet in the first place then let it rest there for long time since after all, you can't do anything to them.

The only annoying thing is here if you hold lots of dead tokens (not by quantity but for each tokens), it will be a long list on your token list whenever you are viewing or checking your ETH address at the explorer.

But for me, I don't mind. I also have lots of "dead" coins on my address. If they will soon revived then good although most of them are impossible to be brought back based on my own view.

There's nothing you can do it with them. They are good for nothing. If you throw it to another wallet, it will only cost you eth, because of the gas fee. So better keep it forever, or hope that the devs of the project would come back and resurrect it. Anyway, there's no limit to the number of tokens a digital wallet can hold.

For you to have declared it dead, it means it should not worth anything to you and since its not disturbing you in that MEW wallet, I would suggest you just leave it there and keep you access to it because nothing is more painful for you to see yourself lose so much money on a coin that you have declared worthless only to worth a fortune six months down the line and by then there is nothing you can do about it.

Since I learnt my lesson, except the coin does not have any trace on the the internet again, its not dead even if the developer have stopped working on it, you might be lucky all of this pump and dump group might pick it up for their selfish needs while you might be fortunate to be trading at the time. This would pay for your wait time in ways you cannot possibly imagine.

There is three things you can do:
1) Do nothing and just leave them as 0-value coins in your wallet. If you're lucky for some reason they will have value in the future and you can sell them.
2) Sell them to someone who hopes/gambles or knows something about this coin and is expecting the value to change in the future. Maybe you can sell them for minimum value or at least at a price so you dont lose on transaction costs.
3) Create a new Wallet on MEW and send all the coins with value to that wallet.

In my opinion option 3 is a waste of capital on transaction costs and i dont think there is a good market on dead coins for option 2.

Oh you mean tokens that aren't in any exchanges or is an abandoned project right?  Nothing. You just store them and wait for a miracle.

It isn't impossible that someone could buy them, maybe in the hopes that it'll be listed even in dexs, that price could somehow surge. But i don't really think it's that popular so you have to lurk on different forums and i bet the buyer would demand a very cheap price.

Let them be on your wallet or you can search them on COINLIB if they are listed on exchange or not as sometimes some tokens are not listed Coinmarketcap. This has happened with me the ENUMIVO token ( I was condering it as dead token) was in my wallet for 6 months one day accidentally i was checking my all dead token whether they are listed on exchange or not than I found ENUMIVO worth 175$  Grin Grin
