Yes, it is true, i am always afraid to miss coin swap or something like this and loose my coins. I am trying to check every project, but not sure that i remember everything.

A very good example for bounty hunters. Because I think a lot of people might face this kind of situation. You just need to keep a table with the data and write all the information there. I would try not to keep a large number of different coins and try to trade.

Its a bad practice, i mean with so many coins and tokens there is nothing you can do but forget. So can't this swap procedure be automated and the people holding the coins can have swap automatically. There must be a much easier, convenient and automated solution for that.

In my opinion, in order not to lose their coins when they move to their own blockchain, it is best to store them on the official wallet from the developers, or on the largest exchanges, for example, Binance. Usually, large exchanges support the transition of coins to a new blockchain or during a hard fork.

It can be very difficult sometimes to properly follow up the coins at we have in wallets. Imagine a bounty participant that has participated in so many projects and has been paid. Some are having almost a thousand coins in their wallets, which means there is no way to monitor each of them. The easiest way to go about it, is to join their social media handles to get updates.

This is a big problem for holders of different coins or token because keeping track can be a demanding task. Sometimes in order to check on all my tokens telegram groups and be updated with the latest updates and developments, I spend hours reading through these groups.
The best strategy is to own but a few cryptos and that you will be able to track conveniently.

So, as you guys know, most coins will do swap when they perform blockchain upgrades or changing the coins to to a new coin
I just forgot about one of my coins and the swap was ended in the 31st of December and guess what?
I just lost 0.3 btc because of it God damn this is so painful
Been holding the coins since 2 year ago in the ICO stage Never make such mistake guys remember
yep, it is bad, but some projects can swap coins without any strictly deadline or even more they know that many people can forget to swap coins in time and waiting them for a long time, i saw it already a couple of times. So you can write directly to the responsible team member or to admin in Tg and ask about your swap, i think that this your request will be granted.

What coin is this? that's a totally painful experience. 0.3 BTC is quite a good amount of money there.
For holders, yes it's a good but see to it that you are checking out daily updates about that coin. There's time interval, allowance and deadline for such upgrades. It's our due responsibility to check those updates.

Rent this sig space so that BTC goes to $100k.

It's a sad experience. You're right, it's better to do a good research and buy some really good coins than to buy a lot and then get confused about it all.

That's quite a big amount, in my case I made it a point to check all the coins that are in my portfolio to see what's going on the price and development at least twice a week, that way no coins will be forgotten and you can always make a decision to sell or add more.

That happened to me already, lost about 250$, and I am so pissed when it happens but it also taught me a lesson. Always keep track on your coin and be updated to it so it will not go to waste

In that case lot of holders already get lost of their money investing such ico and other ico coins that have no potential to pump on their price so it's better to sell them early than hold it for long time.

That is what I do, I commonly will only buy some coins to diversify my money into some promising coins. Well, buying so much coin will give us more risks although it will give us more profits. I personally still consider what I can afford. I prefer to diversify my coins and then buy some coins although it is in the small amount.

So true , Some coins have changed their blockchain and some of them have tokens wap , I have lost some money because of that too , that is depressing , I guess i need to make an spreadsheet of my portfolio and follow their twitter so that i find out when ever they wanted to do some swap .

I think that if you buy, trade or invest in projects, you just need to obey one rule, and the rule of greed is i.e. not take more projects than you can follow.

Wow. . a very sad experience for you, but thank you for sharing this experience. This is a valuable lesson for me. Yeah, from your experience, I can learn. I think I'll only buy Altcoin with the top 10 ranks. And I will continue to monitor the development of the Altcoin that I have ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Sorry to hear that, that amount sure hard to get by now. But i assume you don't write or use any portfolio apps at all, HOLDers should know about this, portfolio is useful to see the flow of the market that we follow, usually old tokens can still be sold even though the price will drop.

Ouch, yeah, that sucks. After awhile, it does become harder to stay up to date with everything. When you first start out, everything is new and exciting so you have the energy to spend a lot of your free time researching. But after two years, and a bear market, you just kind of stop.
And then there are the bounty hunters. I casually do bounty hunting but have still managed to amass around 30 coins. I can't imagine how many coins a full time bounty hunter has.
Now that I think of it, it is a good time to go and see the progress of the projects I am hodling. Might take a whole day lol.

Not only is it just about buying and selling, it is also important to do research about the coins you are holding because of situations like this, I have also lost a coin j was holding due to swap.

And my experience is that that coins what I have sold made 100x. So my advice is to hodl promising coins and forgot about price analysis and so on.
