1. Expired Element Finance position

   $48 · 6 positions

   You hold Element v1 principal tokens (PT), yield tokens (YT) or pool shares. All tranches have ended, so they can be redeemed.

   1. Open the tranche contract (tranche_or_pool column) on Etherscan, Write Contract tab.
   2. PT: call withdrawPrincipal(amount, to). YT: call withdrawInterest(amount, to). Both only work after the tranche expiry.
   3. LP shares: exit the Balancer pool with exitPool first, then redeem as above.

2. Balancer v2 pool share

   $12 · 1 position

   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.

3. xAAVE fund tokens

   xToken

   <$1 · 2 positions

   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.
