The Bitcoin network protocol was designed to be extremely flexible. It can be used to create timed transactions, escrow transactions, multi-signature transactions, etc. The current features of the client only hint at what will be possible in the future.

I havent checked myetherwallet today so dont know i also have this or not
There are so many useless tokens like this which are being distributed randomly to every eth address holding some eth. All this free airdroped coins can be ignored because they will not be successful.

I noticed that too. I have two tokens with coin names but N/A on the left side of column in ethplorer.io. I didn't even know where it came from, maybe from those airdrops i joined. Last night, i try to copy the contract address of it and paste it on etherdelta link and found out that is tradeable with just a small amount.

Gotta love airdrops. I checked my wallet the other day and had several new coins. It isn't a whole lot of money but hey who knows what it could be worth in the future.

Lol myetherwallet is an open-source wallet already. They don't need to be compromised because there is no information held on their servers. They give you the private keys to your address. It's just a way to connect to the ether main network. For the OP, it's probably a forced airdrop coin like a lot of the ones that are spread every now and then. They're usually worth nothing so there's nothing to waste your time on.

Token is like INSP promotion token with zero value. Act like a coupon for ICO.

Probably some tokens from airdrops. I also had a this because one I also joined some airdrops but stopped when airdrops started to ask for donations (although they said it was optional but obviously they didn't give any to those who did not donate).

EVERYONE... Make sure you read this to understand airdrops and what you can do to secure your MEW. https://myetherwallet.github.io/knowledge-base/tokens/airdropped-tokens.html(or search "airdrops") Just like when you fill out something online and your email, phone number etc is out there.... you could suddenly receive marketing info from some company you didn't expect or request. Your public ETH address is just that.. Public. Your PRIVATE KEY IS NOT. KEEP IT PRIVATE. So read the link and see that anyone can send tokens to your public address.

Feels weird that kind of message on the MEW. As I feel, one possible reason might be someone sent coins which are not ERC20 compatible. But if that is the case, how can the coins arrived to MEW at the first place.

I have got some identical tokens too . Not sure if they were the same but apparantly lot of people are getting such tokens . They are nothing but tokens with little value and aiming to get dumped . The devs just dump them to get rid of them . They are just going to sit right there in your wallet aiming to never get a good value for exchange.

Most of the unknown coins that I know that appeared in my ether wallet are useless and do not have any real use or exchange, most of them are sent just to redeem an extra bonus to participate in their ico.

On myetherwallet often come all sorts of shit coin. They are given for a certain amount of a coin, for example ETH. This is done for the PR.

don't worry. it's just that the token is generated as the normal token. It's harmless and may be of no value. you may have participated in the airdrop and get it

Make me great again

Because the token's "devs" probably have no clue or idea of what they are doing

More probably this is an airdropped coin to create awareness or something. Since it is free, just leave it in your wallet. I don’t think the developer can compromise your wallet with an airdropped coin.

I think you joined some airdop or bounties where you forgotten it or may be they randomly choosed your id from somewhere, but I don't recommend to concentrate on it.
Just be patience and everything will get fixed asap also check here about their announcement thread to see whether your name exists or not.
