No exchange? No Value!

[Fluttershy]

So I bought an altcoin called batcoin from a cryptocurrency exchange website. I even withdrew all my coins to an offline wallet, because I don't exactly trust exchange websites. However, the exchange it was listed is now gone, due to a hack.

So now I am stuck with coins that have no value.  

 

What do you think I should do now?

Try to contact the support of that exchange if they are still active then they might send you tokens back upon verification but, if you can't contact them then I think they are gone for good. May I know which exchange your tokens were on?

Is the batcoin is a ERC20 token? You can try to sell in forkdelta if there is a buyer. If nothing found then there is nothing you can do with it, just move on.

Dex is the only way and if there's no buyers who are interested to buy your tokens, then you don't have any other choice but to move on and try to find other project to work with, this really happened and to lessen the risk of keep repeating it.,

try to research more deeper before you participate with any project that you'll going to work with.

if the coins you have do not have an exchange then your coins also have no value and maybe you have no hope of selling all the coins you have. if you don't mind maybe you can mention the name of the coin, but is it possible that the coins you have are only listed on 1 Exchange only?

If the tokens that are with you are included in another exchange platform then you are lucky and you can then exchange them. What happened with you happened to me, but I got worse than you and the reason is that I could not transfer my project tokens because the exchange platform has closed and my tokens are lost, so I advise you not to do anything with your tokens and hold them for the long term.

The OP mentioned the coin- it's batcoin. Though he didn't give which one it is because there are two BAT coin but I think this is the coin he is referring to - https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/batcoin#markets

The other BAT (Basic Attention Token) are still available in several markets.

From the looks of it, the OP has lost his money on this batcoin, as it seems dead already.

[Santri]

what you mean is this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3244914.new#new and the exchange you are referring to is also
https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/Exchange?market=BAT_BTC. I found that information at https://nomics.com/assets/batcoin-batcoin. This is a very worthless coin and may have been abandoned by the team, so forget it

[forexandcryptoauditor]

From my point of view, there is only option to wait. Unless that coin is listed on any other exchange, let the coins hold the place of your wallet.
I  am also in the same situation with having few k BOK tokens. It's on no exchange.lets hope for the best.

just wait and keep your coin in your offline wallet,
maybe someday an exchange will add batcoin, except the project become a dead project, thats mean you have no hope anymore
anyway you must learn from your experience, before invest in any cryptocurrency you must do a deep reseacrh mate

There are no official exchange for this coin other thing if have demand on the market than last hope is decentralized exchange but i think no investors here, so no chances to sell it. It’s a dead coin if he try to list in the exchange to spend his own money but no way to sell without buyer, so that only listing isn’t matter for dead project.                  

[jahepahit]

you have done a good thing to have withdrawn the coins to your wallet. exchange hacking shouldnt affect the value of a real project. moreover thats why its always good to ensure a project is listed on two or more exchanges. any good project that encounters this usually comes back stronger. if this coin is such a good one, it will take a step to next exchange for trading.

[minatour]

Nothing you can do than to hold the coin tight and keep hoping for the best, hopefully the team will decides to revived the project one day. Currently batcoin is not listed on any exchange which means you can't exchange your coin to real money.

[aemma]

A coin or token is worthless, valueless or useless until it is listed on exchanges whether top exchanges or bad exchanges, where a price will be placed on it, thus determining how valuable or useless it can be. About your coin, I don't know about it, actually it's my first time of hearing it, but since your token is in your personal wallet then there is no issue because the team will try to maintain their project thus listing on another exchange. Also from another angle, the team can still overlook everything and exit the project using the exchange hacking as an excuse, nothing is impossible for most team to do. What you should do is to meet the team and know their plans, but if they have abandoned the project or showing to be less concerned then forget about it and move on as there is little you can do.

Find anyone willing to buy your coin and sell it. Don't tell me you thought that the only way cryptos can be traded is thru exchange alone? Make sure you trading with escrow service since there is always scammer looking for quick bucks.

Seems like you didn't know this project. Batcoin is an abandoned project, so, if he will sell it to someone else, I don't think that there is someone who is willing to buy a useless coin. P2P is not an option here, he needs to move on since there is no way that a dead coin will be revived. All he has right now is just a useless coin.

[0verseer]

You're very lucky for not holding your coin at the exchange when the hacking happened. I have experience with coins that didn't list on any exchanges for a long time so I think I can understand how do you feel. If you don't have high confidence for that coin, just find someone willing to buy your coin. Look at the coin discord or telegram, I'm sure there are always investors want to buy the coin cheap since there is no exchange for it.

There are no updates on this project and of course this project can be said to be over, so the coins you have in your wallet will not be valuable, save it maybe in the future there will be a miracle..

There is no update because the project is dead. There is no future and there will be no future developments for this project anymore. The coins bought by OP is no value now, there is no point of saving it because even if a miracle comes, this project will still be useless as it is right now.

Please don't play with his hope like that with miracle stuff. The best thing for him right now is just moving on and stop wasting his time, his energy on thinking his dead coin can return.

[SistaFista]

You were lucky that you didn't store your coin on that exchange.
If you stored on the exchange, you wouldn't be able to withdraw your coin and you wouldn't have anything to own.
Just hope that your coin value will going up in the future.

The dead coin will have gone forever and it will never return again. It's the same like people were wasting their time for nothing while they can make the new money from the new promising coins that have already released into the market. I hope that everyone watching this and exchange site is everything to make crypto survive.

Forger and move on. Coins that has no value on an exchange means no demand and its tendency to die is high. Im always skeptical through which projects I must put my money but really never heard this coin, I thought its bat basic attention token but its different. Probably a shitcoin that imitating the original one. Beware of shitcoins they only do hardm than good. There are lots of good coin but why did you picked this one?
