Why are the tokens I want not available in the Crypto.com DeFi Wallet?
The Crypto.com DeFi Wallet only includes tokens that are checked and verified by Crypto.com to ensure that all their information (price, name, ticker symbol, etc.) is accurate. We update the list and add new tokens on a regular basis. You can add an unlisted token in the DeFi Wallet app by using the Import Tokens or Token Lists feature.
How can I add a token to my list of tokens?
There are 2 ways to accomplish this —
A) Follow the four steps below to manually add a token to your list:
Tap Manage Tokens on the homepage.
Tap Import at the top right corner.
Select the right network and fill in the Token Contract Address field. The Crypto.com DeFi Wallet will automatically populate the token’s name, symbol, and decimals. If the DeFi Wallet is unable to populate the information mentioned above, you can input it manually.
The Import Token button will be enabled once the necessary information is included. Simply tap it to finish importing your token.
B) Follow the steps to add a token via a token list
Tap Manage Tokens in the homepage
Enter a token symbol using the search bar at the top
If the token is found from an existing token list, it will be displayed here
Tap Add Token to add the token to your personal token list
What is a token list?
Tap Manage Token on the homepage.
Tap on the List tab
Toggle a list on
All the tokens in that list will be added to your personal token list
To toggle on specific tokens added to your personal list from the token list, tap the Token tab at the top and enable any token there. Alternatively, use the search bar to find the token you wish to switch on
A token list is a service provided by different protocols following the token list standard created by Uniswap. This enables third parties to create lists of tokens that can be added to any app or dApp that supports the token list standard.
How do I add a token list?
What is the blockchain for my token?
This refers to the blockchain that the token is built on, such as Ethereum or Polygon. You can find this information by going to the token’s website.
What is a token address?
Token addresses detail the location of the token contract, which manages the logic of the respective token. You can find this information by perusing the respective token’s website.
What is a token name?
Token names are what the token contract is referred to (e.g., Bitcoin, Ethereum, Cronos). Please note that different tokens may have the same name and that names are not unique identifiers. You can confirm a token’s name by checking the token address.
What are token symbols?
Token symbols are an abbreviation of the token name (e.g., BTC, ETH, CRO). These are usually 3 to 4 characters in length and they are broadly equivalent to a stock ticker. Please note that different tokens can have the same symbol, and that such symbols are not unique identifiers. You can confirm the symbol by checking the token address.
What are token decimals?
Decimals refer to how divisible a token can be, from 0 (not at all divisible) to 18 (pretty much continuous) and even higher if required. Technically speaking, the decimals value is the number of digits that come after the decimal place when displaying token values on-screen. To determine the token decimals, you can look at the token's website for more information or visit the website of the blockchain of the token and search for it there.
How do I remove an imported token?
1. Tap the Settings [. ] button on the token’s page
2. Tap Remove Token
3. Confirm to remove
4. You’ll receive an in-app confirmation once the token has been removed
How do I remove a token list? Tap Manage Tokens in the homepage.
Tap the List tab at the top
Toggle off a list
The tokens in the list which are not already in the default list or added by another list will be removed from your personal token list
Will I lose my funds if I remove a token from my list?
Removing a token will only remove it from being displayed in your token list. Removal will not affect the balance in your wallet. If you want to display the token, simply import it again.
Why don't imported tokens have access to functions like Swap, Buy, and Price Information?
How Do I Add the XRES Token to My Wallet?
Thank you for participating in the XResearch crowdsale. As an XRES token holder, you’ll have the ability to access all the services, tools, and research on the XResearch platform — the world’s first all-in-one crypto insights portal and media platform with institutional-level analysis.
Once you’ve purchased XRES tokens, you probably want to look at how shiny they are in that wallet of yours. Or, if you plan to purchase tokens, you probably want to look at them as soon as they reach your bag of cryptocurrencies.
This guide explains how to add XRES to your ERC-20 compatible wallet, and provides an explanation of how the token works.
A word about ERC-20 tokens
WARNING: You cannot use an exchange or centralized wallet for the ICO; your money will be lost and we will not be responsible. Again, don’t transfer funds from an exchange like Coinbase, Binance, Bittrex, etc. Read this guide on how to send us Ethereum and other crypto during the XResearch ICO.
Built on the Ethereum blockchain, XRES is an ERC-20 token. As a guide in CoinTelegraph ERC-20 tokens are “designed and used solely on the Ethereum platform,” and are created by smart contracts.
If you don’t see your XRES tokens after sending Ethereum to the XRES smart contract address, don’t panic and scream. You most likely just haven’t added the custom XRES token to your wallet.
Since new ERC-20 tokens have custom details, and there are new ones coming out constantly, it’s hard for ERC-20 wallets to keep up with adding support for those tokens. So, it’s typically up to you to add token details to your wallet manually.
Steps to add the XRES token to your wallet using the MetaMask add-on
We recommend using MyEtherWallet (https://www.myetherwallet.com/), and accessing it using the MetaMask extension (https://metamask.io/).
MetaMask adds an additional layer of security because your private keys are with MetaMask (a browser add-on) and phishing sites won’t be able to steal it. There are a lot of phishing schemes out there attacking MEW users.
So, for security purposes and to not fall victim to a scam, use MetaMask to access your MyEtherWallet account (MEW) and add the XRES token.
Now, to add and view the XRES token in your wallet through the MetaMask add-on, follow these steps:
1. Access your wallet. You can access your MEW account directly through your MetaMask browser add-on on Firefox or Chrome (picture below) See this tutorial about using MEW with MetaMask.
Simply click on the MetaMask icon and enter your MetaMask password (by the way, the fox logo is cool, right?).
2. Click on “Add Token”. It’s right below your wallet details and the buy and send buttons.

Что такое тикер токена
Token Ticker Symbol — это его краткое наименование на криптовалютной бирже, которое состоит из нескольких букв. Он служит вторым, биржевым, названием цифрового актива и призван упростить отображение криптовалют в торговых платформах. Рассмотрим, как присваиваются тикеры, а также механизм их использования.
Определение и примеры тикера
Ticker Symbol — это сочетание нескольких символов латинского алфавита (обычно не больше 3–4 букв, но встречаются и цифры), которое служит своеобразным «ярлыком» криптовалюты. Оно уникально для каждого криптовалютного актива в пределах отдельной биржи. Более того, абсолютным большинством бирж применяются аналогичные тикеры для популярных криптовалютных активов, что избавляет от возможной путаницы при межбиржевой торговле.
На классических биржах при присвоении активу тикера применяют международный стандарт ISO 4217:
- Первые две буквы тикера обозначают международный код страны (например, RU).
- Последние буквы тикера представляют собой первые буквы национальной валюты страны (например, R — Ruble).
- Складываем буквы, выходит RUR — международное обозначение российского рубля.
Хотя стандарта для обозначения криптовалют пока не выпущено, при регистрации их тикеров биржи часто пользуются общепринятыми правилами.
Интересный факт
Общепринятый тикер популярной криптовалюты bitcoin — BTC. Но не все знают, что есть ещё одно условное обозначение — XBT, которое применяется частью бирж, торгующих в основном фиатными валютами, акциями и товарами. Дело в том, что в них тикер BTC уже занят национальной валютой Бутана — Бутанским нгултрумом. Тикер XBT означает: X — присваиваемый всем глобальным «супервалютам» код, а BT — сокращение от слова Bitcoin. По аналогичной схеме золото и серебро на биржах торгуются под тикерами XAU и XAG соответственно.
Наш токен имеет тикер AKRA. Такое обозначение делает криптовалюту полноценным инструментом, которым можно торговать на биржах с другими криптовалютами и фиатом.
Для чего нужен тикер
История появления тикеров уходит ко второй половине XIX века, когда для трансляции котировок акций применялись тикерные аппараты. Из-за длинных названий компаний передача их котировок существенно замедлялась, что и привело к разработке стандарта условных обозначений — тикеров.
Сегодня тикеры на криптовалютных и классических биржах решают несколько задач:
- делают более упорядоченной и не такой сложной для понимания таблицу биржевых котировок;
- стандартизируют отображение котировок и активов на различных биржах;
- разделяют компании и криптовалюты с одинаковыми или похожими названиями, что исключает путаницу при торговле их активами.
Присвоение тикера токену — одно из условий для его выхода на биржевую торговлю. Криптовалютные средства не регулируются так жёстко, как традиционные биржевые активы, и в этом есть свои преимущества. К ним относится упрощение процедуры, которая фактически становится механизмом саморегуляции и даёт возможность владельцам токена выбирать код тикера.
