1. Nucleus vault shares

   Nucleus (BoringVault)

   $4 · 3 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.

2. Lisk L2 balance (closing)

   $2 · 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. Unclaimed Scroll withdrawal

   $1 · 1 position

   You withdrew from Scroll to Ethereum but never claimed on Ethereum. The funds wait in the bridge.

   1. Open the Scroll bridge and connect the wallet that withdrew.
   2. Wait until the batch with your withdrawal is finalized on Ethereum, then find the entry marked Claim in the withdraw history.
   3. Press Claim and pay the Ethereum gas fee.

4. Polygon zkEVM balance

   <$1 · 3 positions

   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.

5. Hop transfer not received

   Hop Protocol

   <$1 · 1 position

   You sent a Hop transfer long ago and it was never paid out on the destination chain. The funds are still in Hop's bridge contract and its withdraw function still works, but Hop's website and data service are gone, so there is no ready tool: the withdrawal has to be built from on-chain data.

   1. hop.exchange and every address under it (app.hop.exchange, docs.hop.exchange) no longer belong to Hop: hop.exchange now shows a gambling site. Do not open them or connect a wallet there.
   2. Find your transfer in the TransferSent event of your transaction on the origin chain (block explorer, Logs tab). It holds the transfer ID, recipient, amount, transferNonce, bonderFee and the swap values.
   3. The withdraw function also needs a Merkle proof of your transfer. Hop's open-source node tool has a withdrawal-proof command for it, but the tool reads Hop's data service at subgraph.hop.exchange, which no longer answers, so a developer has to point it at another source or rebuild the proof from on-chain events.
   4. With the proof, call withdraw on the Hop bridge contract of the destination chain (block explorer, Write tab) from the wallet that should receive the funds. You pay gas.
   5. On a Layer 2 destination you receive hTokens (for example hUSDC). They can be swapped to the native token in Hop's AMM on that chain.
