Hello,

I have joined two bounty campaigns but they both have the same token symbol and I provided both with the same wallet address (as I didn't realise at the time), so what should I do? Create another wallet address and once I get paid one lot of tokens - transfer it over to the new wallet, and then receive the next amount, or is there another way? I have taken a look at MEW but I couldn't find any answers to resolve this issue.

Thank you.

I don't think you have to join another campaign. Because when you use etherscan, you already can see the values of your coin and when you check it in the sites like coinmarketcap, you can already know which is which. And why are you having difficulties? Are you afraid of pulling out some money and ended up you pull up in the wrong coin? If yes, just double check it whenever you're going to major cryptocurrency exchanges.
It wasn't actually possible to add two with the new symbol - however, another BCT forum member has suggested some things so all good. Than you for you time and help.

No problem. Because their symbol can be same not contract address. Like cybermiles and comet, both have the same symbol CMT. Like eristica and eternal trust both have the same symbol ERT. I Asked them that how can be it possible or good thing? They replied we have different smart contract address. So, No problem. You can add token on myetherwallet manually.

You don't have to worry about that. Usually, the token has a unique smart contract.
So you can differentiate it using the smart contract. Create another wallet is optional, but I think you could waste your gas to transfer it.

That shouldn’t be a problem at all, if tey both have same symbol, they will never have same contact address. It’s not even necessary you creating another wallet because they have same symbol. All you have to do is to check the contract addressfor both and you will never be confused. Simple as ABC

It really is not a big deal and if you get paid to the same address the tokens will just seperate themselves in the wallet to their respective projects due to the smart contracts not being the same because despite the fact that they have the same symbol does not mean that they have the same project and coin. If you want you could make another address but it is not a problem.

Thank you.
in my opinion, if you are confused about the tokens symbol, we can check it in etherscan by finding smart contract then search. that way, we will not be mistaken in knowing tokens.
