Hi, I was planning to make a list of Dead coins which no longer used by the Crypto investors. I use following criterias to filter the dead coins.

• Block explorar is dead
  No recent transactions in block explorar
  Official Website is Dead
  No active exchange
  Has listed on an Exchange, But no recent trades
  Developers announed the project is dead
  Other

I do not know all the coins. But I will add the ones I already know. Help me to grow the list and stop people on wasting time collecting dead coins



Java Coin (JVC) - Block Explorar Dead
EOT Coin (EOT) - No Active Market
007 Coin - No Active Market
AIO Coin - No Active Market

I call them shitcoins ,I was a victim of coins like this in the past ,its total waste of time and money but I'm more wiser now I'd only invest in very popular coins and tokens ,no more taking unnecessary risks

The fact that there are dead coins upsets me. Why create a coin, then to throw it? It is so stupid, given the potential of the blockchain.

They only seek profits and after that coins are left and they bring money from investors, this is very stupid behavior.

50% of mineable coins are now dead. Cryptopia used to be the refuge for many shit coins and now cryptopia died with them.
Many of other mineable coins, POS coins and a lot of tokens are nearing the same fate.
You can't even consider a lot of tokens as coins as they were mostly issued for fun or to make fool of people.

Make more money with creating a useless project that have no potential to give something. It is beneficial for token creators but investors suffer from loses. Dead coins should be a great way of making money for shitty exchanges.

sometimes people genuinely try and it just ends up failing for many different reasons.  The same applies to new businesses in any industry.  They have a very high failure rate and it is something you shouldn't venture into if you are very risk averse. 

I guess there are hundred of coins becomes dead coin or even more so it will take huge amount of effort to make a list of those coins.

You can ask the people here to list out the dead coins what they know and update them in OP to get a clear view.

My mentor once told me, a coin can't survive much long on trading and vague hype without a working product which solves a real life problem. Its only a matter of time before such coin dies. That is why we have alot of dead coins on coinmarketcap

This is just a few of the many dead coins. Infact most ICO of 2018 and early 2019 are half dead. Some collected investors fund and still waiting for bull run, why wait for bull run when you have important project to develop! Let's try to invest in what we can trust.

There is a website:
https://deadcoins.com/

It's really good to know all the dead coins

I had to open the website link to see if any of my holding has been documented therein, and behold I saw oztg(flashmoni). Also this might not be so accurate but it looks close enough because flashmoni development has been redundant since ico conclusion.

They must have had the this "dead coin" project already having fun with their success bringing the money of investors who had been deceived by them. I hope not more rows of list the dead coin,right ?

If it was unknown to die then there will be no use from that that's why I say if it was yeah shit kind then we cannot go back to the previous time and make the changes in it give that and make other way of money making it is the right idea.

There are many more dead coins and tokens out there, developers or teams just don't publicly call it is dead, they just keep it going till the point everything has to come to an end.

what's the point in looking for coins that have died ??
I personally better find new altcoins that can compete in the altcoin top ranks to become something big in the future.

I had some coins back then now they are dead. Before that happens token price dropping to 0.

And that coins don't worth much any point.

The issue of a dead coins is unpredictable,  depending on ig the project rise up start having a partnership , building a product. Dead coin just don't die, it just lack good development.

It's always important to see about dead coins, you'll study more before invest on some random altcoin

There may hundreds of thousand meaningless token or coin on market already. All of us can create a token just paying $1-2. So it is so normal what you don't know some of them.

Seriously this is not  good enough. Most of this project don't usually have a long life span. In less than three years most projects disappear into thin air. Most of this project collected millions of dollars from investors and then the project’s sink. This shouldn't be so. They should be asked questions. Some projects collect funds and even fail to list in a good exchange at least. It's just too bad.

I have some collections of coins like this in my wallet, not exactly same name of coins but coins I worked hard for few years ago. I don’t know what to do with these. Some projects behind had just died or unsuccessful, some promised to change it into something tradable but only promise I got, some are not listed in exchanges.

To be honest, I do not see much interest in creating such a list. The number of projects that have emerged in the cryptospace without success is so great that we could gather thousands and thousands of shitcoins that have emerged over the last few years, and the list would continue to grow every day. To cite an example, I participated for a few months in many airdrops offered in this forum and I was able to gather several hundred shitcoins that never gained any value or came to be listed in any exchange.

EOT coin is dead? I thought that they are planning next ICO phase  >:(.

Some of unactive coins that are unfortunately in my portfolio :  VIN, Mira, ObizCoin, Retainly, SSH, PlexCoin, 4NEW, Jincor.

Good motive!

But if i were you its better to leave this topic alone.Why?If you do tend to list in all shitty projects and died a long time ago and even up to present
then you would really need to have sufficient time on searching like forever.There are coins which didnt even stepped on an exchange where it
died after the sale and it died due to unable to reach sufficient funding.In all aspects you cant search it up alone and i doubt people would just simply ignore this one.

The same is applicable for most of the Masternode Shitcoins. As soon as the hype is over, they die one by one ...

There are hundreds of shit or dead coins already. It is better not to waste time or money in those useless things. Many ICO collected a lot of money from investors and the projects failed.

It seems like the way to play the game of profiting from a good project is diff compared to other. The way jazzy . Person wey go pay go pay ! I pray we see God “ I believe he will open have

Well, their end is bound to happen when they offer nothing but just hype to attract investors. And that's what will keep happening, all those coins with no use case will continue ending up worthless. The painful part is, the team surfers nothing while the investors carries the whole pain and hurt.

There are many dead coins, like
007Coin- which was probably abounded or had no volume
10M Token- This was also probably abounded or had no volume
The more recent one 4loins- it was started in 2017 and ended in 2018 due to scam and other issues.

Dead coin for today is sparkster. Adter 1 year lock up this promising project hardly shilled by Balina was listed 0.1x in eth and it seems like it will never go up

We already have that kind of website that tackles most of the dead coins. There's also a summary and category for each of those on the list.

https://deadcoins.com/

But you're idea is good IMHO with that kind of category you should can add a good list of dead coins.

There's a website for this already, but you could create another one as there are many projects that no longer have an active development team and the list is far bigger than this if you do some more research and occasionally some are relaunched with new development teams which can be worthwhile

There many other coins and tokens at dead stage which you didn't mention here. Some are already listed on exchanges but people lost interest, so no buy orders. Xentimentum, cyfm are examples.

Many has come and gone with no value whatsoever , I can't imagine why the market keep increasing with lot of coin which has no value or use case to really drive the market , most are just a pump and dump thing .

Some are not even moving at all as the volume is so poor that no one could trade it and the team has collected funds from investors and dash away with it.

Of the many crypto projects nowadays. Of course there are also many crypto projects that cannot compete and eventually die. Coins like this should indeed die, because they are not able to make investors interested in this coin. So there are a lot of coins now dead and I have no time to add them here, because I have some work to do.

if they are still running but there has been no price growth, we cannot call it dead. we don't know what the next developer can do, because they can buy back, which makes their market crowded again.

If the developers team want make buyback program, its good for community but i think this just a few. I think when the transaction volume not more than $1000 a day, it could called dead coin because there is significant transaction

trade transactions that occur on the market are the main considerations. when there is a trade but it's still very small, I'm sure the project will have slow growth. it will be bad for the future. or even the project will actually die because there are no enthusiasts.

This could be a useful resource, but it would be difficult and a full-time undertaking to try to keep up with them all. So many ICOs have failed during the year-long bear market, there must be hundreds of failed projects out there now. It must be quite dispiriting for those launching ICOs during that time, having missed the ICO madness of 2017. 2019 will perhaps be better as the markets have been more bullish recently.

I am always hater of shitcoins or dead coins, and I do not want to increase my portfolio of shitcoins. I have seen that many people are fond of accumulating as many coins, whether they are good coins or dead coins. Rather I will hold a small portfolio of only good coins which can make me riches over time. It is my strategy.

Recently, information appeared that there are about a thousand dead coins. Probably, this number is too exaggerated, but now there are a lot of such coins and tokens. It should be said that it is not worth while attributing your cryptocurrency to the category of useless and throwing it away if we are absolutely not sure. The development team may have its own different difficulties with the development of their projects. They can earn again after a considerable period of time. Therefore, I prefer while keeping my cryptocurrency in wallets, even if the projects of this cryptocurrency seem to be dead. Time will tell how dead they are.

why is dogecoin included in the list of deadcoins? even tether is categorized as deceased??? since i think everyone can add any coin based on their experience or perspective, i believe a user should do their own research also for specific coin.

also, the OP should update his post as well and make a more comprehensive list if he is serious of tracking down those dead coins.

Yes, recently,due to the long cryptocurrency winter of the market ,1.5 years have passed,of course, many projects are simply extinct,even there were promising projects,and they also bent,as many namely 90% of projects did not have time to implement their collected during ISO money in ETH,so that there was Fiat money,and they have already developed the project,as a result, many times 5-10 fell the amount of fees,and they did not have enough money for development,and many more simply wasted investors ' money

Phew! That is a huge undertaking because there has to be hundreds of them.
In my mind its best to just leave them alone in their grave.
In the past, there was a real chance that a dead project could be revived.
This was possible because the market wasn't crowded and there were way more miners vs. traders.

Now, we have an overcrowded market, and most miners have either stopped or flocked to the major currencies.
The chances of any of these getting picked up by someone and brought back to life is very slim.
So, perhaps something that would be more useful is why these coins die.
It would help investors make more informed choices.
With more informed investors, crypto can gain more stability.

As a professional crypto currency player, we must monitor the crypto currency periodically. At least one day we must monitor the situation of the crypto currency market to find out the development of the actual crypto currency. Don't let us get behind the news and information from the crypto currency. We must know the development of the coins that we have or our targets. We have to monitor the movement of the coin clearly so that we can ensure that the coin really still has a future and is not dead yet. Don't let us not know that the coins we have are dead.

Dead coins is a huge number, sometimes check projects in which they followed before, or coins which were taken for the future, and I see that more than half dead.

Sad true, there's a lots of wasted investors money around the market, developers failed to deliver as the project is too ambitious to make
good progress, before investors knew about it the value already failed and eventually there's no more investors to follow and support the project
then it will die after completely being forgotten.

This subject is such a hot one ever as always. There are souls that laments almost everyday about their mistakes of accumulating a whole lot of shitcoins. In fact,  some peoples wallet have none of the promising, all shit coins. This in turn is so frustrating.

Yes that's crypto, which needs to survive and compete against thousands of other crypto. The coins that were once loved and are now just rubbish and coins that were once thrown away are now gold, crypto is full of puzzles, and what survives here is only coins that are seriously developed.

And now I think, if the first loved coin is dead, then what about the coin that is loved now? Will he have the same fate as his predecessor? I hope not, because I have a portion of the coin.

good luck with your list. this will certainly not be easy to list all the dead coins in a list.
but, i also have a coin for your list that seems to be dead. FAIRBRIX https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=46478.msg553499#msg553499

no trade no transuction and no market condition of dead coin.
i know Java coin it is from indonesia and i think it is scam project.
many coin died and can't survive because the development of it is not seurieus.

yes there is no point in investing with dead coins, the length of their lives will disappear by itself because no one uses it. that coins that have many users will certainly last. so make an investment with coins that have many users

I think their is many problems for dead coins, simple explain: unactive admin team, no have any development planning, no have added any good popular Exchange. In fact also their no have big traders and investors man. So if upset problem have any project then absolutely dead coins.

There are lots of coins like that and many more are on that same path. It remains to be seen if they can survive much longer. I wish the number of coins can be limited to 10, it will help crypto a lot.

There is no need to see how they will proceed, of course it is clear if they have no requests / offers at all on the market, of course they die. and after that they usually disappear themselves from the market list.

Once upon a time I always like mining my coins but guess what I've ended up with many dead coins
1)sadomi
2)maple coin
3)spotme coin
4)cadex
But gone are those days ,I was a newbie then that's why I fell victim for these shitcoins ,not anymore

nice idea mate,
but what for ? because a dead coins will have no value now or in the future
or maybe you and your team will make a few of dead coins reborn ?

it feels difficult if we develop a dead coin. unless the project team has an innovation to revive it and restore investor confidence. with so many investors and traders trading again on the coin.

This dead coin is a pain in the head, i have so much dead coin here in my wallet where it comes from bounty campaign that end to nothing or scam. It will be forever here in my wallet and its really sad that i waste my time and effort to acquire those shit token of mine.

I feel you mate. You joined lots of bounty campaign thinking that you'll earn profit after the campaign. But what mostly happen was, you earn nothing. After your hard work, you've got rewarded with shitcoins.

Despite of that, I don't lose hope. I'm still hoping that out of 10 campaigns that I've participated with, there's one token that will change my life. Hopefully, we'll get rid of those dead coins.

I have the same opinion. Why should everyone list coins that are simply not needed by anyone.Alas at the moment is really a lot of unnecessary coins.They are not even worth talking about as the community does not even know about them.No matter how bad it was but still there are good and promising, and most importantly , live, coins that can already be bought.

Thats good to know, I think thats helpful initiative to the forum users and to all crypto enthusiast as well to know the status of those so called dormant coins. We all know that too many crypto coins that already exist including those dead coins from dead projects and i believe it was a good idea.

Not only you, i am also upset but my conclusion about these developers is that their initial plan was to deceive people to fund their bad project, those coins and tokens are dead on arrival.

majority of those dead coins are pump and dump coin by scammers,  it's meant to scam the nobs and the greedy one,  they have no purpose and use,  they just pump for no reason, another one is out in the market right now,  bomb $ethplode no uses, no team and lots of nobs are busy buying

That's why I'm not interest on altcoin, just bitcoin, period.
But if you still insist to invest altcoin, you can try from local project. Usually they provide good and legit team work so it's easier to be monitor !

There are many coins has already gone dead. In my experience PGL gone dead and now it is no more traded in any exchanges even in the CMC platform. But, I got the profit initially when it was first lunched in the Cryptopia. I sell my bounty token of PGL here and accumulate my fiat currency.

I wish that someone can write a program or bot for cleaning the wallets from these dead coins. Sometimes i look into my main ethereum wallet and all i see is lots of garbage which i clearly don’t like.

You can see on some exchanges, such as livecoin, that many coins are dead, there are no enthusiasts and there is no volume, I give one of them is the wbcc coin.

there are a number of altcoins that have good potential for the future, because the project has a strong team and reliable people so that from the start of the launch it clearly has good goals for the future

There are lots of them. There is even a website dedicated to Deadcoin:
www.deadcoins.com

The fact is that not every coin will succeed. Most are  substandard projects while many are outright scam.  Some are fair projects while tiny numbers are of quality.

There are many others too, scamming people and robbing them of their money. NYC, KBR are the coin codes and the list can go on and on just. There was another named Oxert, it had fraud investors to give money. Build protect that do not use coin. No exchange listed, only promise of token utility, without volume of transactions. The coin price fell by 99% It was taken down as per announced being a scam. So everyone should only invest in most popular ones to be on the safe side.

I have had many of this coin/tokens, well I got stucked with most of then while I was able to sell of some of them before they died off. I have learnt a lot on since I joined blockchain tech and I happy for that knowledge

Lot of coin or token are dead long time and still rolling in to death room which is a big issue to the industry bit I think the ieo has a better way to save us from this some days as lot of ICO get people scammed , we have the highest dead token that the surviving one in the industry which is a big sign of regulation needed but with the need for ieo and the exchange it will reduce in no time .

There's this website on deadcoins already -> https://deadcoins.com/
Probably just message the website owner on the coins that you think should be published in it.

I think there already is a place listing dead coins and tokens. Can't remember where, but I saw it some time ago. I'm sure if you guys google it you will find it out there. I was a very long list though.

It will also be everyone's hope, IMO the dead coin will not be lost but I hope someone can clear it too. Its existence is very troubling cause crypto industry is very easy to reach, so bad opinions will always be there.

yes, dead coins are very troubling in the cryptoqurrency industry, but doesn't the coin have no price development / no users, it will gradually disappear by itself? yes, but whatever the dead coin needs to be removed so it doesn't look like garbage

It cant cause any trouble because they are already dead  . Dead coin can be remove from the exchange as the time goes by but it cant be automatically removed on your wallet . I do also have dead coins but its not bothering at all . I wont ever remove them on my wallet because im still hopping that they still can be listed even if i already hodling them for over year now  .

Your idea is good, and there is other persons who has been doing your idea now by creating the project called Coin Janitor. They idea to clean the network from dead coin according to their criteria.
From OP, I can not see the objective to relate with Deadcoin just to stop people to waste their time for collecting dead coins. Is that all?

Why even make a list of dead coins and dead projects? Personally, when I become interested in a project, I immediately look at the information about it. I look at which exchanges are traded and since when, what volume of trades, how many people in social networks.

There was a period when Bitcoin went very high and showed its records in the price, then there was a period when even the dead tokens showed signs of life and then they could be sold without loss or even with a profit.

I do not have any of these coins in my portfolio, but I am sure that I will have lots of coins that are dead but I have never bothered to take time to start researching on them, there is no point wasting my time on them when I can achieve more things with that time I am using to start checking them.

The deed has been done and they are dead and gone already, of what use will it be to me or anyone to start digging them out, it is just for one to learn it’s lesson, continue to explore other available projects that one can make profit from within a short period of time, because I can see that many of these altcoins are no longer good for long term investment.

I have a lot of dead coins and is included in the criteria of the dead coin that you mentioned, I got those dead coins from bounty and airdrop. then what is your purpose for making that list?

Before all these scam issues started and ICO projects too started become too unserious with the projects they bring to the public, this is exactly what I usually do too before, I just buy all altcoins that I see in the market that I feel is good and cheap and hoping that one of them will do something great even if not all the coins that I am holding, which has really worked for me.

Nowadays, virtually all the projects we have newly now are all shitcoins, you could easily know this through CMC, I have not seen any new project added to top 100 list on CMC, all the coins has been older coin for many years, and despite the fact that these new project claim that they have new solution better than the older ones.

I think a lot of ERC20 tokens that are currently becoming trash, from the case of developers leaving the project but still carrying investor funds and many other cases that make many erc20 platforms become garbage tokens.

Surely many investors have been tricked from them. Before engaging in investing I think you should learn about it trading volume, staff, information all about it. For coins without market potential, they will be eliminated. It is sad to invest in coin trash like this.

I will add one more. MuusicCoin also become dead coin.
Their Blockchain explorer also got destroyed.
Most of Masternode coin always end like this on this current condition.

I think such list would be essential. Mostly, to get rid of the illusions that coins are immortal and to emphasise the importance of research

Do not spend a time on something that is already created.

Here is the list of dead and scam coins, you can add here your list, if those coins are not already listed here: deadcoins.com

if you want to invest, investors will certainly do research first. if you don't do it maybe he is new and acts stupid if he chooses a coin that will die or instead buys junk coins in the market. the list of dead coins will help old or new investors see assets that will have no value even if they hold them for the long term.

this is the importance of always following the development of a project. I also have had a few dead coins, and the most memorable was the centra (CTR). Well, that is a project that was developed in 2016-2017 if I'm not mistaken. this project has great potential, it's just that there are some problems with the team, causing this project to be abandoned, and not trusted. in a short time, this project died, so the tokens were eliminated from all markets.

The thing that can be captured from this is, you will not realize if a coin dies, the price will drop so fast, and you cannot sell the assets you have, and it becomes useless. still pay attention to the projects that you support.

That's right, research on coins is always needed for everyone who follows cryptocurrency, because traders and investors already very much regret the loss when they are wrong in choosing coins, so a list of dead coins is very necessary, so everyone can see and find out.

Such coins dead can be to enumerate hundreds of. This is either a coin that has been re-mined or simply closed and disabled all wallets. Do not guess what to expect from the developers, because they depend on the life of a coin

Im just found out that have many dead coins right now that have no value. Ill have so many coins are in my wallet until now it hold it, But their was no value. The bounty campaign distributed the coins and they always promise it will gonna be listed on exchange until now it become dead coins even if we contact the group channel no one be answer.

There are a lot of websites that are tracking dead coins. I can barely remember the name, but if you google it, you will get access to several websites of dead coins. The funny fact is, that sooner or later 90 percent of coins will become dead.

if you really want to make a list I think it will take a lot of time. because we know there are many shitcoins in circulation.
an example of a new coin released on the market then 3-4 months later shows a little turnaround in the market, it can already be said as deadcoin.
and there are so many of them.

We'll get what kind of dead coins from there and can increase our awareness on future project.
And also you mentioned those factors that make you interest on a project means the project already big cause have exchanges volume, how you determine to invest in a new project which don't have exchange yet ?

Your contribution is highly appreciated, it can really help the investors and the bounty hunter to not waste their time in supporting the dead coins.

I am hoping that you are going to update it regularly, I will visit it daily also to gather some additional information's on what is going on to other coins.

avoid coins that do not have potential to rise, because that will only make your trading capital trapped in the coin, you better trade on coins that have high trading volume, because it will definitely have a fast price movement and can provide very much profit.

Dear good efforts I suggest you make a website and share good real project and also dead coins or scam projects and promote the website through Bitcoin talk great forum, This will help all of us, once again appreciate your good work.

Thanks for this! I'm about to suggest OP to input his list on a spreadsheet and make it viewable in public so everyone can easily check the list anytime but it seems that the OP has been inactive for almost 4 months. The link you provided was a big help for someone like me because I can clearly see the reasons why a coin becomes dead. Highly appreciated  ;)

Some coins die off very early but most of them die off gradually and this is where the risk lies because investors might have already thrown some funds to such projects. It becomes so unfortunate when this happens hence investors are always cautioned to research into projects very well before investing in them in order to known which coins have the capabilities to survive.
