2. Archived L2 bridge funds

   Archived L2s

   $28 · 3 positionsMay not work

   This chain shut down and its state is gone, so no one can prove a withdrawal now. The Ethereum bridge still holds the money; only the chain team can release it.

   1. Use the official bridge of the chain you withdrew from (linked next to each of your positions).
   2. Check that chain's official site for a refund or recovery notice.
   3. Without the chain's final state nobody can prove a withdrawal. Only the chain team can release the bridge funds.

3. dYdX v3 balance

   $21 · 1 position

   dYdX v3 was shut down and its exchange was set to 'frozen' on Ethereum. Your USDC can still be taken out through the escape hatch, or withdrawn if already released.

   1. Open dYdX's v3 sunset post and use the Escape Hatch link in its last update. It is hosted by an independent third party.
   2. Escape needs a proof for your stark key and position. The page builds it; the escape call goes to StarkPerpetual 0xD54f502e184B6B739d7D27a6410a67dc462D69c8.
   3. Then call withdraw from your registered Ethereum address to receive the USDC. You pay Ethereum gas.

   4. If the NFT is not in your wallet, it may be locked in another contract such as Hyperlock. Withdraw it from there first.

5. zkSync Lite balance not claimed

   $7 · 3 positions

   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.

    2. Call redeem(cTokenBalance) or redeemUnderlying(amount).
    3. If you have a borrow in the same market, repay it first; your collateral is locked until then.

    Sorare, Immutable X, ApeX Pro, edgeX v1, Myria

    $2 · 2 positionsMay not work

    Some StarkEx apps keep balances off-chain. A pending withdrawal can be claimed now. A deposit-only record cannot: the app operator must first publish data.

    1. Check the row type. A pending withdrawal can be claimed now; a deposit ledger row cannot.
    2. For a pending withdrawal, call withdraw with your owner key and asset type on the app's StarkEx contract (Etherscan). Funds go to your registered address.
    3. For a frozen app, the escape hatch needs the operator or data committee to publish state first. See the StarkWare docs.
