Dead coins...

[Macinto$h]

In fact, there are a lot more projects and coins than those that you can see on the CMC website. In reality, there are probably more than 10,000, and maybe even more. Dead coin is a rather conventional concept, And it often happened that someone thought the project was dead, but after a while he began to work again. Therefore, this is all inaccurate.

there are many things that can make the coin die, in the outline you have mentioned several factors. I think the coin died because it failed to attract investors to invest in the coin so the developers just left.

it's possible when the coin was registered with CoinMarketCap before the team failed to develop and there was no capital to continue working on the project, but when the ICO pre-sale their project was successful.

What makes a coin dead? I would say when it has no active nodes, no trading volume and no development, in that order. Anyone have a different definition?
My second question, why does CMC still list these coins!?!?!?

Basically, no interest, no news or just the team went nowhere, that's why the token is dying and have no liquidity. The market overall has issues with that.
CMC delists it time by time though.

Many things make coins die and this is very useless, coins die because there really is no interest, even though the team is active but there is no renewal and also obsolete. Seeing this will definitely get rid of itself and no longer sell.

This is because the impact of the price increase is very significant in 2017. So the market price in 2018 collapses. And the impact for all Altcoin also collapsed. And even every coin cannot get funds for development. So many of these coins die because of the absence of investors.

Many cause coins to die and in 2018 there are many coins that die. And the market price is also very influential because the price collapses. Many dead coins are registered at CMC because when they have registered the coins are still active and growing. But with the market conditions collapsing and many investors leaving the market. So that coins that have bad teams and developers will definitely stop.

Dead coin means a coon without an active developments news or without community. Also we can say that dead coins has no volume on exchanges.

You maybe right but these coin are not dead, let's just say it's resting right now and once the market will show it's bullish again
I'm sure these coins that are sleeping will once again come alive. Perhaps it's like us investors, when we feel it's not good to sell, we hold.

Timing is necessary, so we have to do it with timing so in the end we will reap what we expected.

Well you've got the scam and bogus projects leading to 2018 to blame for that. With so many of these icos ending up as bs coins, it dragged the ico industry down with it, with investors learning their lessons last year. I doubt if many of those dead coins will have a second lease on life.

In any case, a certain part of sleeping coins can develop very strongly when a cryptocurrency market begins to recover. I have examples of certain projects, whose coins. One year after the completion of the ico, the companies begin to go public. And some have value, but so far they have not been trading anywhere.

Dead coins that I know those ICO coins listed in the market but they have no enough volume to increase up again so the potential of it getting lost.

Volume has its own role in determining the demand, but creating a conclusion based on the volume alone is not justifiable. The volume reflects its total demand, but as long as the project keeps delivering something to the project itself and the community, it can not be considered as a dead project.
we can tell whether it is dead or not based on the development, if they are getting close to their goal but they are lacking the volume. It might be happened due to accumulation phase, in most case, the whales were suppressing the price in order to push the price down so they could get a lot of coins cheaply.

the main point how some coindefined are dead is, if they using PoW of course when nothing any miney in their ecosystem is make this coin dead, and another point like you said nothing showing any volume trade in market until few day, week and month can make the coin is useless

[jozhkesha]

There are a lot of dead coins in my investment portfolio. I doubt that I will have the opportunity to sell them someday.

[BanaCrypto]

Coins do not have large volumes in exchainge , disputes between developers , and local government regulations .

[TH24EVER]

if you ask about mineable coins, here is so many reason, for example : people dont want mining, becouse it is  bad business way. here is some coins, with low speed, want 1.2 day or more. becouse miners is offline.

but before this : you want make coin, with future updates,  different is Dogecoin, Dogecoin is unique coin, team leave Dogecoin, and here isnot good reason for Dogecoin popularity, but it is popular, its Fausets favorite coin, + if you play small online games, for example agar.io  you can find here - Dogecoin avatars, this is only one here. people like dogecoin

Coin is dead if the official Github is not updated.
And why CMC still shows these coins? Because CoinMarketCap is not responsible for that, they can´t do research about 2000 coins at one time.

But what tokens do you guys mean or think are dead for example? I mean, just to be safe.. Good to know other's opinions/thoughts.

Based on a lot of analysis, more than 500 coins and tokens have died, this is because of the intense competition and red market conditions, from this experience of course we have to choose coins that have good potential in the future.

In my opinion, if a project don't have any development, trading volume and community, it is a dead project. Those 3 play a vital role of the growth/adoption of a coin. CMC don't care about those fact. I also don't like CMC. I prefer to use coingecko as an alternative to CMC. It has great feature.
