How to add Ethereum based ICO Tokens in Metamask

in ico •  8 years ago  (edited)

I could not view the tokens on Metamask. I thought I would transfer 1 token, but actually misread 'decimals of precision' and changed it to 1 from 8. I am worried, I screwed up! A big screwup. It's showing I own 1 token when I have 10s of thousands.
Help!

      Thanks, @devender for reaching out to help!
      I got in touch with Metamask support, and they sorted it out.

          so, is it possible to edit the incorrect decimals of precision that I entered before. I put 3 instead of 18 and now metamask shows a really big umber of tokens. I know when I check at https://ethplorer.io/ the number of tokens is right but the metamask representation is wrong. Can I delete the added token and add it again or edit the decimals of precision?

                yeah I did the opposite I put 3 decimals of precision instead of 18 and now I have 20million tokens when I have 200 at eth address. Any way to rectify this or do I just cash in the 20mil : )

                  Haha, no way! You could just delete the metamask chrome extension and start afresh with your 200 tokens. ;)
