1. zkSync Lite balance not claimed

   $536 · 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. dYdX v3 balance

   $84 · 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 Your USDC can still be taken out through the escape hatch, or withdrawn if already released.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.

3. Moonriver balance (chain halted)

   $47 · 2 positionsNeeds the team

   Moonriver's public migration of MOVR to Base closed on 31 July 2026. The team reviews late claims by email, one by one. The announced late window was 60 days, so it may have closed.

   1. Read the Moonbeam team's late-claim notice (forum link).
   2. Contact [email protected] with your wallet address, token, amount, where it is held and why you missed the deadline.
   3. Expect a manual review with no set reply time. Never share your seed phrase.

   2. Connect the staking wallet and call withdraw(pid, amount) or emergencyWithdraw(pid). For pool 0 (CAKE), use leaveStaking(amount).
   3. Then remove liquidity from the LP token if you want the two coins.

5. FTM never moved to Sonic (S)

   Fantom to Sonic

   $2 · 1 position

   You hold FTM on Ethereum that was never moved to S on Sonic. Sonic's guide says the Sonic Gateway bridges it 1 to 1.

   1. Open the Sonic Gateway and connect the wallet that holds FTM on Ethereum.
   2. Select FTM (Ethereum), enter the amount, click Bridge and approve the transactions.
   3. When the Claim button appears, claim your S on Sonic. Sonic's guide is from 2024, so check the Gateway still lists FTM (Ethereum).

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

   <$1 · 1 position

   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.
