   3. Approve in your wallet, then press Claim Tokens. Pay the Ethereum gas fee. The tokens go to the burner address.

2. Unclaimed OP Stack chain withdrawal

   Blast, Mantle, Mode, Zora, Lisk, Ink, Unichain and other OP chains

   $5 · 1 position

   1. Use the official bridge of the chain you withdrew from (linked next to each of your positions).
   2. Connect the receiving wallet and open your transactions. Press Prove, wait out the challenge period shown on the page, then press Finalize.
   3. Pay the Ethereum gas fee each time.

3. Polygon zkEVM balance

   $2 · 2 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.

4. USDC burned but not minted

   Circle CCTP

   $2 · 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.

5. Old Polygon Plasma bridge exit

   <$1 · 1 position

   You withdrew from Polygon through the old Plasma bridge and the exit was never finished on Ethereum. Polygon's current docs no longer describe this bridge, so the route is not confirmed.

   1. Open Polygon Portal, connect the wallet that burned the tokens, and check Transactions for your exit.
   2. If Portal shows Initiate Claim or Claim Tokens, follow it and pay the Ethereum gas fee.
   3. If it is not listed, the exit must be run on the Polygon contracts directly. Ask Polygon support, with the burn transaction hash.

6. Ended Sablier stream (no price)

   $0 · 1 position

   An ended or canceled Sablier stream whose token has no known price. Most are airdrop vesting or spam tokens, so the value is unknown and may be zero.

   1. Open the Sablier app and connect the wallet that owns the stream.
   2. Press Withdraw on the ended stream if you want the tokens.
   3. Be careful with unknown tokens: many are spam.
