Forked token versions mapped to the same asset on the wallet page
confirmed
Sam - CoinTracker
Users may experience:
- A single asset (i.e. GALA) appearing twice in a wallet (Image 1)
- When filtering by one of the assets listed results in all transactions for both versions of the asset listed on the transactions page.
- CoinTracker does not track the older versions of forked assets, add your upvote here for improved tracking!
- It can be assumed that the older version of a token is no longer supported, in most cases the older version will appear as a blue logo asset and the newer version will be imported with the correct logo. In this case both the old and new version of the asset appear the same.
Note: This is only affecting a few forked assets, most forked assets are not mapping to the same (newer) asset
Expected behavior:
- Ability to differentiate between the two versions of a forked token and expect them to be distinguishable upon ingestion.
- The current token should inherit the appropriate price history and the older version of the token should appear as an unsupported token.
- CoinTracker recently made an update that matches tokens by token contract address. Some users report forked tokens still mapping to the current asset even when the contract addresses differ. CoinTracker has a know bug in which we do not maintain price pages for forked / archived tokens outlined here.
As a user, what should I do?
- Users will need to update the mis-mapped version of the asset by manually creating a custom currency to represent to asset and replacing any transactions related to that asset with the custom currency.
- As an example, GALA v1 forked in May 2023. CoinTracker currently uses the price history and mapping for GALA v2 and v1 tokens are being mapped to the current version. Users can update GALA txns prior to May 2023 with a custom currency to represent their GALA v1 assets.
