I understand that i have to custom add some tokens on MEW before i can transact them.
I have participated in ICOs and airdrops, can i view my ethereum address on etherscan and see my tokens? (Just to check if i received tokens) or must i add the contract details before i can veiw(not transact) tokens. Thanks your reply will be helpful.

Yeah, all tokens is shows in etherscan. But you can add custom token in mew if you know contract address

Yes you can view your myetherwallet address on etherscan, just simply click the etherscan.io in your etherwallet, you can see it below the number of eth you got. You can now look for your address in etherscan if you got some tokens.

check any token u received on etherscan and u can add token contract on mew but more easy if u use metamask

you dont need to put the contract address when you check your transaction in etherscan..just simple you can do just paste your wallet address only to view your transactions then hit the view token to token tracke.r in that option you can see your transaction...

Ok thanks

Thanks for all your responses

No problem and if etherscan isnt working you can also check ethplorer. I like that website a lot and it helps me track where my coins have gone

you can see how much your token in your wallet on etherscan,
no need to add it in your mew wallet because it's automatically added on etherscan because it's an explorer,
it can track it due to smart contract address.
but if you want to trade it,you need to add it in your mew.
it's not visible in your mew because it's not a well known project or at least added in etherscan officially.

You have to set what coin you want to have displayed in your myetherwallet. Once you done that you just have to load all balances.

Yes you can, but the token must be delivered in your address and that gives you ability to see your token in there, you can see it through ethplorer also. If the token still not deliver into your address and you can't see that.

You need to add a custom token only if your tokens stay on the contract, but not on your wallet. Once you transfer tokens to your wallet, they should automatically appear there.

You never need to do anything about myetherwallet too see yout tokens. After their release they are getting onto chain you can look them up over chain. Some coins stay unnamed but most of them are there easy to look.

Just enter the name of the coin you will add in mew here;

https://etherscan.io/token-search

input addres and decimal number, it does not take a long time.

you dindt need to put your own contract address while you are on a transaction on the etherscan. it is just simple the copy and paste method on your wallet address that can view your transaction then hit the view toekn in hte tracke.r  in that option you can see your transaction that you made today and the past days too

Thanks for all the responses, i'm very familiar with the ethereum blockchain right now. I think ethplorer is better to view tokens
