1. Polygon zkEVM balance

   $355 · 17 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.

2. STG never swapped to ZRO

   Stargate / LayerZero

   $35 · 1 positionMay not work

   You hold STG that was never swapped to ZRO. The official redemption site gives 0.08634 ZRO per STG. LayerZero says conversions end on 15 December 2026.

   1. Open the STG Redemption site and connect the wallet that holds STG on Ethereum.
   2. Sign the Terms of Conversion message when asked, approve STG, then confirm the swap.
   3. Do this before 15 December 2026. Conversions are not supported after that date.
   4. Without the site: call swap(stgAmount, signature) on 0x921949cc006A563D76Abd111a3e4c2ACe2C4273f. The signature is of the Terms text.

3. MKR never converted to SKY

   Maker / Sky

   $27 · 1 positionMay not work

   You hold MKR, or MKR in the old DSChief voting contract, that was never converted to SKY. The converter still works. Its fee is 5% now (read on-chain 2026-10-01) and rises 1 point every 3 months.

   1. Open the Sky app and connect your wallet.
   2. If your MKR is in the old DSChief voting contract, first call free(amount) on that contract.
   3. Approve MKR, then convert it to SKY. You get 24,000 SKY per MKR minus the fee.
   4. Without the app: call mkrToSky(usr, mkrAmt) on the converter 0xA1Ea1bA18E88C381C724a75F23a130420C403f9a.

   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. Select FTM (Ethereum), enter the amount, click Bridge and approve the transactions.

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

   <$1 · 4 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.

10. Alpaca v1 vault tokens

    Alpaca Finance

    <$1 · 3 positions

    You hold Alpaca v1 ibTokens (deposit receipts) on BNB Chain. The vault still pays out the underlying token.

    1. Open the ibToken contract (contract column) on BscScan and go to Write Contract.
    2. Connect the owner wallet and call withdraw(shares).
    3. ibBUSD, ibETH, ibBTCB and ibUSDC were migrated: withdraw may pay a different token. If it reverts, read the contract's functions on BscScan.

11. Alongside AMKT index fund share

    <$1 · 1 position

    You hold AMKT, a crypto index token. The vault still holds WBTC and wstETH behind it, but we found no confirmed redeem route and the project site is gone.

    1. Open the AMKT token on Etherscan and find the issuer or redeemer contract it links to.
    2. Try its redeem function from your holder wallet. This was not tested, so it may fail.
    3. Tokens held by exchanges, bridges or pools belong to other people, not the contract.

12. Nucleus vault shares

    Nucleus (BoringVault)

    <$1 · 1 position

    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.
