1. Expired veCRV lock

   Curve

   $18 · 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   Your veCRV lock ended but the CRV was never withdrawn.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. Old Maker SCD vault collateral

   $15 · 1 position

   You own an old single-collateral Dai vault (CDP) that still has collateral (PETH) left after the system was shut down.

   1. Open the Tub contract 0x448a5065aeBB8E423F0896E6c5D525C040f59af3 on Etherscan, Write tab.
   2. If the vault still has debt, anyone can call bite(cupId) first. Then the vault owner calls free(cup, ink) to get PETH.
   3. Call exit(wad) to swap PETH for WETH. If a DSProxy owns the vault, send these calls through the proxy.

3. dYdX v3 balance

   $7 · 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 Your USDC can still be taken out through the escape hatch, or withdrawn if already released.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. 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.

5. zkSync Lite balance not claimed

   <$1 · 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.

6. Alpaca staked ibTokens (FairLaunch)

   Alpaca Finance

   <$1 · 1 position

   You staked Alpaca ibTokens in the old FairLaunch farm on BNB Chain. The app is gone but the contract lets you take them out. The ibUSDC pool (pid 24) may not pay.

   1. Open FairLaunch 0xA625AB01B08ce023B2a342Dbb12a16f2C8489A8F on BscScan, Write Contract.
   2. Call withdrawAll(user, pid) with your address and the pool id, or emergencyWithdraw(pid).
   3. Then call withdraw(shares) on the ibToken vault to get the base token. Contract wallets must send from the contract.

7. Old SAI stablecoin to cash out

   Maker SAI

   <$1 · 1 position

   SAI (the first Dai) was shut down. Each SAI can still be cashed for a fixed amount of WETH: 0.0052856 WETH per SAI (read from the contract).

   1. Approve first: on the SAI token 0x89d24A6b4CcB1B6fAA2625fE562bDD9a23260359 call approve(spender = 0xBda109309f9FafA6Dd6A9CB9f1Df4085B27Ee8eF, amount).
   2. Open the SaiTap contract 0xBda109309f9FafA6Dd6A9CB9f1Df4085B27Ee8eF on Etherscan, Write tab, and connect your wallet.
   3. Call cash(wad) with your SAI amount. You receive WETH.
