Transfer airdrops from MEW directly into Etherdelta?

[99th]

Is it possible to do this? For example I have some airdrops that reached over $100 usd and I want to get rid of them so I have some eth for trading, but I don't have the initial eth for gas to get them from MEW to somewhere else...

I have googled a few options but it's still unclear to me if this is truly possible.

Can I import my MEW wallet (directly via private key or using meta mask) into Etherdelta so I can sell my airdropped tokens?

Have you done this before? How difficult is it and can you please outline the steps?

Much appreciated to any help and a big thanks for reading this.

that is exactly how you trade at ether delta, but you still need gas for transfeering that token, using your private key doest mean your balance allready there right ? your token still at your wallet.

Install Metamask extention for Chrome and import your wallet there. Then open EtherDelta, choose your wallet account in Metamask and you'll be able to deposit a token directly from your wallet even without adding it as a custom token in MyEtherWallet. Metamask allows you to set the minimum possible gas limit and gas price. Before the Cryptokitties I used to set 100k limit and 0.1 gwei. But not it's better to check the current average gas price before depositing, otherwise your transaction will fail immideately and you'll just loose the gas.

Helpful, thanks.

So no matter what I will need ether in my MEW account to do this it seems?

I think you need to put a little Ethereum (1$) on your wallet account to pay a transaction fee for transferring to Etherdelta

[MiningSensei]

Are you serious? The OP is clearly saying that he does not have ethereum in there to set a little gas for sending the tokens to etherdelta, how are you still suggesting him to use metamask without gas?

Yes, and now more than the whole ethereum blockchain is completely saturated, i sent a payment today and it took more than 15 minutes to get the 12 confirmations, and it normaly gets all those confirmations in less than five minutes.

But not it's better to check the current average gas price before depositing, otherwise your transaction will fail immideately and you'll just loose the gas.

And forgive me about asking, but in what airdrops have you been into? Because $100 is a lot of money compared to the crap airdrops that we are seeing in here everyday.

to elaborate transaction on the ethereum blockchain you need to pay gas in ETH, no matter of the wallet platform or token you are trading, you need ETH to elaborate them, you can set a lower gas price  ecc in order to pay less but the transaction will take more time

It is better to ask than not know right? I haven't participated lately but the big one that I think drew many in was Ethereum Dark airdrop back in October or September. Apart from that I think only a few other airdrops have had any success and a few that I see mentioned constantly are eBTC and one named BLUE. I didn't get those but I did get the first one, apart from that it is a lot of worthless tokens.

You can do that, you can import your private key and address directly to the etherdelta but it seems the gas becomes your responsibility. For every transaction will need the gas, and you may need to put at least 0.01 into your wallet. This will become a mandatory before you are starting your transaction. You may need to buy a little amount of ethereum before sell your airdrop coin.

You still need eth for gas for your trading. I had this problem once when it was my first trading for an airdrop coin. You can either buy eth (long process first buy btc, then buy eth and send to your wallet) or you can ask some friends to borrow a bit of eth and return once you are done trading.

[deadmousehat]

LOL who suggest metamask, surely he just read the title and then made quick comment. 
Whatever type of ethereum wallet you using now. you still need pay GAS for ethereum transaction. Buy ethereum coin some bucks on exchange or buy from your trusted friends.

You know how Etherdelta works.That is good, but what you don't know is you still need gas in etherdelta to send from your account to etherdelta account.If you just put your private key then the funds will not transfer to etherdelta. In etherdelta account itself you need to transfer your funds to ED eth wallet.

Thanks for all the replies. I am still obviously stuck without any eth and no cash to buy any. Hopefully I will figure this out and make a little eth somehow and transfer to my MEW account so I can send the airdrop tokens to etherdelta and trade them...


The airdrops that I have that are actually worth something are:

SGR
eREAL
eGAS
ZCG
