1. friend.tech keys still held

   $2,234 · 6 positions

   You hold friend.tech keys on Base. The contract still lets you sell them back for ETH, even if the app does not work.

   1. Open the contract's Write tab on Basescan, connect your wallet, and call sellShares(sharesSubject, amount) from the holder wallet.
   2. Use the key owner's address as sharesSubject. The last key of a subject can never be sold.
   3. The ETH arrives in your wallet, minus the sell fees.

2. MKR never converted to SKY

   Maker / Sky

   $24 · 1 position

   You hold MKR, or MKR in the old DSChief voting contract, that was never converted to SKY. The converter still works. Its fee is 5% now (read on-chain 2026-10-01) and rises 1 point every 3 months.

   1. Open the Sky app and connect your wallet.
   2. If your MKR is in the old DSChief voting contract, first call free(amount) on that contract.
   3. Approve MKR, then convert it to SKY. You get 24,000 SKY per MKR minus the fee.
   4. Without the app: call mkrToSky(usr, mkrAmt) on the converter 0xA1Ea1bA18E88C381C724a75F23a130420C403f9a.

3. Curve fees not claimed (3CRV)

   $13 · 1 position

   You locked CRV in veCRV and earned fee rewards in 3CRV from the old Curve fee distributor, but never claimed them. They are still in the contract.

   1. Open the contract's Write tab on the block explorer and connect your wallet.
   2. Call claim with your address. Anyone can call it; the tokens go to you.
   3. If many weeks are unclaimed, repeat the call; each call covers up to 20 weeks.
   4. Check your wallet for the 3CRV.

4. Expired veCRV lock

   Curve

   $12 · 1 position

   Your veCRV lock ended but the CRV was never withdrawn. It is still locked in the contract until you call withdraw.

   1. Open the veCRV VotingEscrow contract on Etherscan, Write Contract.
   2. Connect the owner wallet and call withdraw().
   3. If the owner is a smart contract that cannot make this call, the CRV stays locked.

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

   <$1 · 3 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.

7. xAAVE fund tokens

   xToken

   <$1 · 1 position

   You hold xAAVE, a fund token backed by AAVE. Minting is paused, but burning still works and pays out your share of the AAVE.

   1. Find your token. xAAVEa is 0x80DC468671316E50D4E9023D3Db38D3105c1C146 and xAAVEb is 0x704de5696df237c5b9ba0de9ba7e0c63da8ea0df. Open it on Etherscan, Write as Proxy tab, and connect your wallet.
   2. Call burn(tokenAmount, false, minReturn) with your balance. Set minReturn to the least AAVE you accept.
   3. You get your share of the fund's AAVE: about 0.01 AAVE per token at the last check, not 1 to 1.
