Can I 'delete' useless tokens from my wallet?

[b1k4ng]

useless wallets that are in our purses cannot be erased and they will remain there until the Day of Judgment . If you feel annoyed with these tokens then you can send them randomly or you can create a new wallet

Is it possible to remove tokens from dead projects/tokens that are totally useless and worth $0 from my wallet? Do I just send them to a random address? I don't want to burden anyone else with those shitcoins 

To avoid you regretting later why not just click on hidden button to hide the tokens from sight? You never can tell if those tokens you call worthless now will later rise once activities and publicity on them begins. There is no harm in keeping many tokens in your wallet. Scrolling down to find tokens or using the search engine on your wallet should not be any problem for anyone. I suggest you leave them in your wallet but hide them.

I can understand maybe how Op is having expectation of bull from those shit tokens in that wallet. And your suggestion of using the hide button is good because of the future, to avoid total regret because if deleted, it is gone when you forget the decimal, erc20 name etc, that is worst.

But talking about deleting, if the token was in exchange and got delisted or on some aspect where the token was deleted already from an exchange maybe because the shit token is worthless, the team abandon the project for long and no longer active in all social media, I think you can delete because the project has been scammed or exit.

would you rather spend money just to move coins in your wallet? or send it to someone else for free? If I were you then I would leave the coins in my wallet for as long as possible, no exchange or not sellable anyway. Do something else that is more useful than wasting your time focusing on coins that cannot be sold at all.

You can't permanently delete tokens from your wallet, you can either send them away to an unknown address or open another wallet to store the shitcoins, honestly if I were you I'd just ignore the useless tokens, if Future the unexpected can happen with those worthless tokens

[pelumi20]

Indeed! you can by sending them to unknown addresses however as should be obvious, this technique expects you to pay some transaction fees. this is the main strategy that works. In any case, keeping them in your wallet would be a good thought cause consider the possibility that their developers will proceed with the project 5-10 years at this point. that would make the price of their dead token pump and imagine a scenario where their price became like the other top altcoins in the market. furthermore, you have a colossal measure of it. that would make you a mogul quickly. In the event that you are irritated by taking a gander at the gigantic list of poop coins in your wallet, better to make another one and safeguarded that old wallet possibly you can simply open it once at regular intervals to check

[nelson4lov]

Lol, yeah sure you can do that, but don't forget you'll need to pay for gas fees for the transaction ,so why bother wasting your gas fess on those dead tokens, you didn't specify the wallet you are using, and it's kinda of different for different wallets, but there's definitely a way to delete all those dead ERC20 tokens,I had a few on my wallet back then, I got tired of seeing them not adding anything to my portfolio , so I cleared them off, if you asked how to do it in trust wallet I could have helped you out.

[Gibreil]

Even I have many shitcoins in my wallet, I don't want to delete them since I got them in my bounty campaigns. Even they are worthless, I want to keep them all. I think you cannot delete the tokens in your wallet but you can send it to other addresses. Because if you delete or remove the tokens, it may affect the circulation supply of the tokens you hold. If I were you, I will stock it in my wallet forever even they are useless.

Guys, that's not a problem. At a minimum, you can just ignore these coins, but if they really annoy you, you can have a separate wallet and transfer everything more or less worthwhile there. After all, we do not know, maybe the garbage project will one day resurrect and bring a good income

You know that Ethereum transaction costs, I don't why are you giving advice to send tokens instead of creating a new wallet. We received some shit coins in our old wallet for no reason. Op shouldn't forget the private key. In the future, this wallet could be valuable. Like kick tokens types of airdrop OP will receive.

Yes, it's better to ignore shitcoins that are in your wallet, it won't affect anything, in some cases shitcoins suddenly have a price, so it's better to keep them than throw them away.
if it bothers you better send it to a special wallet that you provide for shitcoins, but make sure you still keep your wallet private key, this is just in case one of these coins suddenly becomes valuable.

[hanyongs]

hmm i dont know about it, maybe other people know about it. By the way i want delet my dead coin too its useless in my wallet.

[abahcoin]

could have been sent to the burn address 0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dEaD
but it costs money to do it, it's better to leave it in your wallet than to burn it.

[suparigach]

I believe he is talking about Meta Maska or MEW or some other wallet interface. I found a tutorial here about how to hide the tokens you don't want to see anymore. https://github.com/MetaMask/metamask-extension/pull/4482

Thanks you so much. To share such content with us. I didn't even know it. Metamask or myethwallet has a lot of coin / token that will never work. There are many dead projects that have gone through scams. Tokens like this are really annoying. There is currently a lot of fee to transfer from myethwallet. So it is best to keep it hidden.

[proTECH77]

I will not advise you to delete those useless tokens you said are still in your wallet just because you don't need them again for their devalue, things will not remain like that for ever with that token just try to keep them safe for future purpose. There are many ways you can make use of them in your wallet without wasting them for nothing which will later make you regret for such decision. All you have to do, to  stop see the tokens not to display in your wallet, is to set your display wallet. I think, it will really help you to keep them away for you not to see them display in your wallet.

If the worthless tokens are annoying you then create new eth address and move them from your secondary wallet address into the new primary wallet address, problem solved, I don't think sending the worthless tokens to other unknown address that you have to recovery key or access to is a good idea because shitcoins can become something someday.

[Bertyda]

Looks like shit token and death token have my wallet. I received all token from participate in bounty program. Still now i didn't sold yet because there has no volume and price. So we can't do anything for death coin just keep positive thinking and forget all death coin. If you gonna delete then your time wasting more so better follow your work.

It was so many scams of cryptocurrency projects in 2017 and in 2018 that many people stop to trust them. After the end of ICO when developers collected a necessary sum of money they stopped development and just took the money and leave the project. That is why so many investors was disappointed.

[masphie]

Yes you can...
But, why yo do it this ?
Can you imagine in future your useless tokens can turn into dragon tokens ? who knows ....

My advice, let them (useless tokens) stay in your wallet. And see what happen in 1 year...
Except, your tokens project die....

Yes, it is true. in fact, the only way to get rid of it is to send a token that doesn't have that price to another wallet, and that requires gas or a fee to send it. however, you should not ignore coins that have no price in your wallet. I currently have quite a number of such tokens in my wallet.

Majority of the coins won't recover, some are already abandoned I guess so I don't blame you if you plan to delete them off but you can't get rid of the tokens unless you sent them away to address you have to control over, but there is a thin chance that the token can someday brings reasonable value because it has happened in the past before so the choice is yours.

why should it be removed? just leave it in your wallet,
if it is possible that the shitcoin price suddenly rises, of course it will be good for you,
I myself still hold shitcoin in the wallet, because the results of the bounty and airdrop.

It's your call if you want to get rid of the tokens but you should now that dead cats can bounce back to life, if I were you I'd leave them in my wallet, they can't disturb you from making transactions or can they? Shitcoins can do some magic, keep holding them
