1. Balancer v1 or CoW AMM pool share

   $2,816 · 1 position

   You hold tokens of an old Balancer v1 pool or a Balancer CoW AMM pool. There is no Balancer app for v1, but you can leave the pool through the contract.

   1. Open the pool address (pool column) on the block explorer, Write Contract tab.
   2. Call exitPool(poolAmountIn, minAmountsOut) with your pool token amount. Use zeros for the minimums only if you accept any price.
   3. If your tokens are staked elsewhere, withdraw them there first. Balancer also publishes an open-source exit tool: github.com/balancer/exit-ui (no hosted copy was online on 2026-10-01).

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

   $631 · 1 position

   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.

4. Unclaimed Arbitrum withdrawal

   Arbitrum One, Arbitrum Nova

   $9 · 1 position

   You withdrew ETH or tokens from Arbitrum to Ethereum but never did the final claim on Ethereum. The challenge period (about 6.4 days) is long over, so the funds can be claimed now.

   1. Open the Arbitrum bridge and connect the receiving wallet.
   2. Open Transactions and find the withdrawal marked Claim, or paste the withdrawal transaction hash.
   3. Press Claim and confirm. You pay the Ethereum gas fee. The funds go to the recipient.

5. Funds on shut-down Swellchain

   Swellchain, Swell

   $3 · 1 position

   Swell closed Swellchain: the final withdrawal deadline was 2026-06-15 and the chain was to run until 2026-06-30. Withdrawals started before 15 June can still be finalized on Ethereum.

   1. If your withdrawal was started before 15 June: after the 7-day proof wait, prove it on the Ethereum OptimismPortal2 0x758E0EE66102816F5C3Ec9ECc1188860fbb87812 (proveWithdrawalTransaction).
   2. Then call finalizeWithdrawalTransaction on the same contract. You pay ETH gas.
   3. If you never started one: Swell said contract withdrawals were possible until 30 June but are technical. Ask Swell support.
