1. Expired veCRV lock

   Curve

   $463 · 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   Your veCRV lock ended but the CRV was never withdrawn.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.

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

   $284 · 2 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.

3. Curve fees not claimed (3CRV)

   $3 · 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. zkSync Lite balance not claimed

   $2 · 1 position

   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.

5. KNCL never swapped to KNC

   Kyber (KNCL)

   <$1 · 1 position

   You hold old KNCL tokens that were never swapped to KNC. The KNC token contract still accepts them.

   1. Approve first: on the old KNC token (KNCL) 0xdd974D5C2e2928deA5F71b9825b8b646686BD200 call approve(spender = 0xdeFA4e8a7bcBA345F687a2f1456F5Edd9CE97202, amount).
   2. Open the KNC contract 0xdeFA4e8a7bcBA345F687a2f1456F5Edd9CE97202 on Etherscan, Write as Proxy tab, and connect your wallet.
   3. Call mintWithOldKnc(amount). It burns your KNCL and mints KNC 1 to 1.

6. Universe.xyz staked tokens

   <$1 · 1 position

   You staked tokens in the Universe.xyz staking contract and never withdrew them. The contract still holds them and lets you withdraw.

   1. Open the staking contract 0x2d615795a8bdb804541C69798F13331126BA0c09 on Etherscan, Write tab, and connect the wallet that staked.
   2. Call withdraw(tokenAddress, amount) with the token you staked and the amount to take out.
   3. emergencyWithdraw(tokenAddress) returns your full balance, but the contract only allows it after 10 epochs with no successful withdraw of that token.

7. Prisma Finance leftover funds

   <$1 · 1 position

   Prisma was exploited in 2024 and wound down. You may have collateral left over after a redemption, Stability Pool gains or deposits, or other claimable funds. They are still in the contracts.

   1. Read the wind-down guide linked below to see which pot your row is in.
   2. Leftover collateral: on the Trove Manager contract in your row, Write tab, call claimCollateral(receiver) from your wallet.
   3. Stability Pool 0xed8b26d99834540c5013701bb3715fafd39993ba: call withdrawFromSP(0), then claimCollateralGains(recipient, collateralIndexes). Deposits: withdrawFromSP(amount).
