1. Polygon zkEVM balance

   $155 · 5 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.

3. Nucleus vault shares

   Nucleus (BoringVault)

   $18 · 4 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.

4. USDC burned but not minted

   Circle CCTP

   $5 · 1 position

   USDC was burned on one chain through Circle CCTP but the matching USDC was never minted on the destination chain. Circle can still sign it, so it can be completed.

   1. Find the burn transaction hash on the source chain.
   2. Get the signed attestation for it from Circle's attestation API (see the Circle CCTP docs).
   3. On the destination chain, call receiveMessage(message, attestation) on the MessageTransmitter contract. You pay the gas fee. USDC goes to the recipient.

   2. Withdraw your assets to Ethereum. If you staked LSK, unlock it first and wait 3 days.

6. Archived L2 bridge funds

   Archived L2s

   $4 · 2 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.

8. Gas deposit in EntryPoint

   ERC-4337 EntryPoint

   $2 · 1 position

   A smart account or paymaster deposited gas money in the ERC-4337 EntryPoint contract and left it there. Plain wallets can take it out; smart contract accounts often cannot.

   1. Open the EntryPoint contract for your chain and version on the block explorer.
   2. From the deposit account, call withdrawTo with your receiving address and the amount.
   3. If the account is a smart contract, check that it has a function that calls withdrawTo; many do not. Stake needs unlockStake, then withdrawStake.
