1. Funds in old Ethereum contracts (2015-2021)

   $295 · 5 positions

   You have a balance in an old Ethereum contract (The DAO, EtherDelta, IDEX, the 2017 ENS registrar, DigixDAO and others). Each contract has its own withdraw call. Use the wallet that owns the position.

   1. The DAO: on the DAO token 0xbb9bc244d798123fde783fcc1c72d3bb8c189413 call approve(0xbf4ed7b27f1d666546e30d74d50d173d20bca754, yourBalance). Then call withdraw() on the WithdrawDAO contract 0xbf4ed7b27f1d666546e30d74d50d173d20bca754. It pays 1 ETH per 100 DAO.
   2. EtherDelta 0x8d12a197cb00d4747a1fe03395095ce2a5cc6819: from the wallet that deposited, call withdraw(amount) for ETH or withdrawToken(token, amount) for a token. Amounts are in the token's smallest unit.
   3. IDEX v1 0x2a0c0dbecc7e4d658f48e01e3fa353f44050c208: call withdraw(token, amount). Use token 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 for ETH. It reverts if your last IDEX activity was fewer than 240 blocks ago.
   4. 2017 ENS registrar 0x6090a6e47849629b7245dfa1ca21d94cd15878ef: call releaseDeed(labelhash) for the name. The labelhash is keccak256 of the name without .eth. The deposit goes back to the deed owner.
   5. Other contracts (DigixDAO, Neufund and more): use the contract's own withdraw or refund function on Etherscan from the owner wallet. Check the contract's code first.

2. Expired Pendle position

   $63 · 7 positions

   You hold Pendle PT or LP tokens from a market that has expired. They can be redeemed for the underlying asset at any time.

   1. Open the Pendle app, connect your wallet, and go to Portfolio.

3. Nucleus vault shares

   Nucleus (BoringVault)

   $61 · 2 positions

   Nucleus deprecated its vaults on 19 Dec 2025 and the withdraw page is gone. You can redeem vault shares through the Teller contract, but only for assets the vault still holds.

   1. Read the Nucleus deprecation guide first.
   2. Check which tokens the vault still holds, and your vault token balance, on Etherscan (or the Plume explorer).
   3. On the vault's Teller contract, Write tab, call bulkWithdraw(withdrawAsset, shareAmount, minimumAssets, to). The guide says to use 0 for minimumAssets.

4. Stake in PancakeSwap MasterChef v1

   $18 · 3 positions

   You staked LP or CAKE in the first PancakeSwap farm contract and left it there. The contract still lets you withdraw.

   1. Open MasterChef v1 (0x73feaa1eE314F8c655E354234017bE2193C9E24E) on BscScan and use Write Contract.
   2. Connect the staking wallet and call withdraw(pid, amount) or emergencyWithdraw(pid). For pool 0 (CAKE), use leaveStaking(amount).
   3. Then remove liquidity from the LP token if you want the two coins.

5. GMX v1 GLP staked

   $10 · 1 position

   You hold staked GLP, the liquidity token of GMX v1 (Arbitrum or Avalanche). GMX stopped v1 trading in July 2025; you can only sell existing GLP back for the underlying assets.

   1. Open v1.app.gmx.io, connect your wallet and use the Sell GLP page. If your GLP is staked, the page unstakes it as part of the sale.
   2. If the page fails, call unstakeAndRedeemGlp(tokenOut, glpAmount, minOut, receiver) on RewardRouterV2: Arbitrum 0xB95DB5B167D75e6d04227CfFFA61069348d271F5.
   3. GMX docs also mention claims for GLP holders in their distributions section. Rows marked as contracts (vesters, vaults) are unclear.

6. Balancer v2 pool share

   $5 · 4 positions

   You hold Balancer v2 pool tokens, in your wallet or staked. You can exit the pool. Balancer has proposed a wind-down: if it passes, pools become withdraw-only on 30 Oct 2026.

   1. Open the Balancer app, find your pool and use Remove liquidity. Do this before 30 Oct 2026.
   2. If the app does not work, call exitPool on the Balancer v2 Vault 0xBA12222222228d8Ba445958a75a0704d566BF2C8 (Etherscan, Write tab).
   3. If your tokens are staked in Aura, Beefy or a gauge, unstake there first.

7. Orbit Lending deposit on Blast

   $5 · 1 position

   You supplied funds to Orbit Lending on Blast, which was exploited. You can still withdraw, but some markets hold less cash than is owed, so first come, first served.

   1. Open your cToken contract (listed in the row) on Blast's block explorer, Write tab, connect wallet.
   2. Call redeem(cTokenBalance) or redeemUnderlying(amount).
   3. If you have a borrow in the same market, repay it first; your collateral is locked until then.

8. Ellipsis LP tokens

   $4 · 2 positions

   You hold Ellipsis stablecoin or BTC pool tokens on BNB Chain, in your wallet or staked. The contracts still work; the Ellipsis site did not load when checked.

   1. If staked, call emergencyWithdraw(pid) on LpTokenStaker 0xcce949De564fE60e7f96C85e55177F8B9E4CF61b; normal withdraw fails.
   2. Then call remove_liquidity or remove_liquidity_one_coin on the pool contract.
   3. Use BscScan's Write Contract tab.

9. dYdX v3 balance

   $3 · 1 position

   dYdX v3 was shut down and its exchange was set to 'frozen' on Ethereum. Your USDC can still be taken out through the escape hatch, or withdrawn if already released.

   1. Open dYdX's v3 sunset post and use the Escape Hatch link in its last update. It is hosted by an independent third party.
   2. Escape needs a proof for your stark key and position. The page builds it; the escape call goes to StarkPerpetual 0xD54f502e184B6B739d7D27a6410a67dc462D69c8.
   3. Then call withdraw from your registered Ethereum address to receive the USDC. You pay Ethereum gas.

11. Harmony balance (chain halted)

    $2 · 2 positionsNeeds the team

    Harmony proposed (non-binding, 7 Sept 2026) a final snapshot and an ERC-20 ONE airdrop on Ethereum. This list shows positions at the last block our data saw. You cannot sign anything on the chain now.

    1. Do not expect to withdraw this yourself. The chain is halted.
    2. Watch Harmony's official channels for the vote result and the snapshot rules.
    3. Keep access to your wallet. The proposal says the airdrop would go to the same address on Ethereum.

12. Unclaimed Polygon PoS withdrawal

    Polygon PoS bridge

    1. Open Polygon Portal and connect the wallet that withdrew.
    2. Find the withdrawal in your transactions and press Initiate Claim.
    3. Approve in your wallet, then press Claim Tokens. Pay the Ethereum gas fee. The tokens go to the burner address.

13. Mooniswap (1inch) LP tokens

    Mooniswap (1inch AMM, Ethereum)

    $1 · 1 position

    Mooniswap was a 1inch exchange on Ethereum. Your LP tokens give you a share of the tokens in the pool, and the pool can still pay out.

    1. Find your pool with getAllPools() on factory 0xbAF9A5d4b0052359326A6CDAb54BABAa3a3A9643 (v1) or 0x71CD6666064C3A1354a3B4dca5fA1E2D3ee7D303 (v2), and open it in the explorer.
    2. If the LP tokens are staked in a farm, unstake them first.
    3. Call withdraw(amount, minReturns) from your wallet.

15. Iron Finance IS3USD LP tokens

    Iron Finance (IronSwap IS3USD, Polygon)

    <$1 · 1 position

    Iron Finance IS3USD is closed, but its stable-coin pool contract still works. Your LP tokens give you a share of the coins in the pool.

    1. If your LP is staked in IronChef 0x1fd1259fa8cdc60c6e8c86cfa592ca1b8403dfad, call withdraw(0, amount, to) there first (Polygon explorer, Write tab).
    2. Then on the pool 0x837503e8a8753ae17fb8c8151b8e6f586defcb57 call removeLiquidity(amount, minAmounts, deadline) or removeLiquidityOneToken(amount, index, minAmount, deadline).
    3. Set minimum amounts you accept. Pay the network fee in POL.

16. Old Polygon Plasma bridge exit

    <$1 · 2 positions

    You withdrew from Polygon through the old Plasma bridge and the exit was never finished on Ethereum. Polygon's current docs no longer describe this bridge, so the route is not confirmed.

    1. Open Polygon Portal, connect the wallet that burned the tokens, and check Transactions for your exit.
    2. If Portal shows Initiate Claim or Claim Tokens, follow it and pay the Ethereum gas fee.
    3. If it is not listed, the exit must be run on the Polygon contracts directly. Ask Polygon support, with the burn transaction hash.

17. Expired veBAL lock

    Balancer

    <$1 · 1 position

18. Unclaimed OP Mainnet or Base withdrawal

    Optimism, Base

    $0 · 1 position

    You withdrew ETH or tokens from OP Mainnet or Base to Ethereum but never did the last step on Ethereum. The funds wait in the bridge contract.

    1. OP Mainnet: open the Optimism bridge (app.optimism.io/bridge), connect the receiving wallet, open your withdrawal, press Prove, then Finalize after 7 days.
    2. Base: Base's docs list Superbridge and Brid.gg as its bridges. Open one, connect the receiving wallet, find the withdrawal, press Prove, then Finalize.
    3. Base waits 5 days after Prove (1 day if both a TEE proof and a ZK proof back it). Pay the Ethereum gas fee each time.
