1. Archived L2 bridge funds

   Archived L2s

   $26 · 1 positionMay not work

   This chain shut down and its state is gone, so no one can prove a withdrawal now. The Ethereum bridge still holds the money; only the chain team can release it.

   1. Use the official bridge of the chain you withdrew from (linked next to each of your positions).
   2. Check that chain's official site for a refund or recovery notice.
   3. Without the chain's final state nobody can prove a withdrawal. Only the chain team can release the bridge funds.

2. Lisk L2 balance (closing)

   $13 · 1 position

   Lisk's own chain closes on 2026-10-31. Lisk says withdrawing to Ethereum takes about 8 days, and unstaking LSK adds 3 days. Start now.

   1. Open the Lisk bridge (type bridge.lisk.com yourself) and connect your wallet.
   2. Withdraw your assets to Ethereum. If you staked LSK, unlock it first and wait 3 days.
   3. After the wait, prove and finalize the withdrawal on Ethereum. You pay gas on both chains.

3. zkSync Lite balance not claimed

   $8 · 2 positions

   zkSync Lite was shut down on 2026-05-04. Remaining balances are claimable on Ethereum through a claim contract and a withdrawal portal. Your account is on that list and has not claimed.

   1. Open the zkSync Lite withdrawal portal and connect the wallet that owned the account.
   2. The portal finds your address in the final state, builds the proof and sends the claim. Follow its prompts.
   3. Confirm the Ethereum transaction. Tokens go to your L1 address. Matter Labs sponsors gas for the first 100,000 withdrawals.

4. Unclaimed OP Mainnet or Base withdrawal

   Optimism, Base

   $3 · 2 positions

   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.

5. Ionic Protocol deposit

   $1 · 1 positionMay not work

   Ionic Protocol lending is shut down and ionic.money is now a domain for sale. Your deposit receipt (ionToken) may still be redeemable, only for the cash left, first come first served.

   1. Open the ionToken contract for your market and chain in the block explorer. Find the pool list with PoolDirectory.getAllPools().
   2. If you have an open loan, repay it first.
   3. Connect your wallet and call redeem or redeemUnderlying. You get at most the cash left in the market.

6. Expired Pendle position

   <$1 · 1 position

   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.
   2. Find the expired position and press Redeem (for PT) or Remove liquidity (for LP).
   3. For LP, redeem the PT you receive afterwards. Confirm and pay gas.

7. Curve fees not claimed (3CRV)

   <$1 · 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.

8. Polygon zkEVM balance

   $0 · 1 position

   Polygon zkEVM's sequencer stopped on 1 July 2026. Wallet-held funds not bridged before then can be claimed on Ethereum in a claim UI. Polygon treats unclaimed assets as abandoned after 2027-12-31.

   1. Open the Polygon zkEVM claims site and connect the wallet that held the funds.
   2. Pick your balances and send the claim transaction on Ethereum.
   3. Funds locked inside DeFi contracts are not auto-migrated. Ask Polygon through the forum post.
