No one will be able to access your wallet if you lose PK, and no one can help you to access your wallet again if your PK is lost |

I assume that you are using an Ethereum wallet and not a Bitcoin wallet cause you are pertaining to tokens.
Private keys is the most essential with any kind of cryptocurrency wallets so if you lose it then there is no way you can retreive your wallets. You have no any insurance in getting back your tokens anymore but if you still have an access to your Keystore File(UTC/JSON) with password then you can still login to your Ethereum address.

no you can't transfer your coins if you lost your private key. it is the most important thing in accessing your wallet without that your coins will be forever lock, in that situation you can ask mod/dev of a certain coin if they can help you get back all your coins from lost private key.

Usually it's impossible to recover your cryptocurrency funds if you lose the private key to your cryptocurrency address. However, if you use HD wallet and still remember mnemonic words, you could restore your lost funds  Also, if you still have wallet file and forgot mnemonic words and private keys, but remember parts of the password. There are services which could help you restore the wallet. |

A big NO... Private key is tied up with bitcoin address and it is key to use any bitcoin held on that bitcoin address, without this key nobody can move those bitcoin out of the address. If you have made that bitcoin wallet from blockchain.info like web wallets than you might have secret seed phrase to restore your wallet. |

No one will be able to access your wallet if you lose PK, and no one can help you to access your wallet again if your PK is lost So better to keep it in a safe place because if you loose it, you probably loose your money. Always have your multiple back up data about your PK so if one wast lost you till have other option. PK is the most important thing in your wallet, use it well. |

Yes, but you will need a backup for that purpose. A private key is not a password and hence you can not reset it using any link/email id/2FA and etc options, you must keep the backup for it in order to use it in case of emergency.
There are the people who lost their private keys / wallet.dat file and hence lost the entire control from their wallet. Understand that after losing the private keys, your bitcoins are still on the network but since no one (including you) knows the private keys to spend those funds, those Bitcoins are useless and hence lost forever.

Sorry to break the sad news dude, but it lost your Private Keys, say bye bye to your coins or tokens. How about your JSON file though, I'm assuming you are talking about MEW here because you have mentioned tokesns? did you back it up or not? Their may be a a slim chance to recover it if you made a proper backup. But other than that, you won't be able to recover them. You know the drill, if you just followed it, this will hot happened to you. Sorry for you lost. |

Private key is the most essential thing to access a wallet and once lost is almost impossible to recover unless backups were made and/or the wallet service provided recovery phrases which were backed up. In any case, offline backups of each would ensure total safety of the wallet since you would be in control of the coins without anyone else's access to it.

Unless you have your coins on a platform like Coinbase ( they dont give you your private key ) then you are pretty screwed. Which is why security is very important regardless of how much you are investing.

It depends on the type of wallet you use. Some wallets store your private key with them so you just need login id pass to enter the wallet and make transactions but if you are on a standalone private key wallet then you have surely lost your funds forever there is no way one can gain access to a wallet without private key nor do we have such technology which could do a brute force attack to guess up the private key.

No, it is the only one way to deal with the Bitcoin. It is needed for security, so you should keep your parsonal data more carefully. Some people use backups for these needs (even backups on pieces of paper).

as far as i have know, you cannot retrieve you wallet anymore if you lost your private key and you cannot transfer your token into your new wallet if you cannot open the old one. private key is very important to access our wallet.

If your private key goes in wrong hands then he may empty your wallet. And without pvt key no one can access your wallet not even you and you also cannot make transfer into new wallet. |
