1. zkSync Lite balance not claimed

   $27 · 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.

2. Unclaimed OP Mainnet or Base withdrawal

   Optimism, Base

   $23 · 1 position

   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.

3. Funds on shut-down Swellchain

   Swellchain, Swell

   $13 · 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.

4. Unfinished zkSync withdrawal

   zkSync Era

   1. Open the ZKsync bridge and connect your wallet.
   2. Find the withdrawal that is ready to finalize. Withdrawals are delayed about 3 hours after they are sent.
   3. Press Finalize and pay the Ethereum gas fee. The funds go to the receiver address.

5. Polygon zkEVM balance

   $4 · 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.
