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

   $640 · 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.

2. zkSync Lite balance not claimed

   $268 · 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.

3. Unclaimed Orbit chain withdrawal

   Arbitrum Orbit chains (Robinhood, Plume, ApeChain and others)

   $3 · 1 position

   You withdrew from an Arbitrum Orbit chain to its parent chain, but the last step (execute on the parent chain) was never done. The funds are held in the bridge.

   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, or paste the withdrawal transaction hash.
   3. When the challenge period is over, press Claim. You pay the gas fee on the parent chain.

4. Cover Protocol v1 collateral

   <$1 · 1 position

   You hold Cover Protocol tokens or pool shares that still back DAI collateral in a contract. Cover is closed, but the contracts let you redeem.

   1. Open the cover contract (contract column of your row) on Etherscan, Write Contract.
   2. Call redeemNoclaim() after expiry, or redeemClaim() if a claim was accepted.
   3. Pool shares: call exitPool(bptAmount, [0,0]) on the Balancer pool first. Staked shares: call emergencyWithdraw(lpToken) on Blacksmith 0xe0b94a7bb45dd905c79bb1992c9879f40f1caed5 or BonusRewards 0x8fc8551dd5e2dc5d2b04f2957e543d7d53a79f1e.

5. dYdX v3 balance

   <$1 · 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.

6. PieDAO index token

   <$1 · 1 positionMay not work

   PieDAO index tokens (pies) on Ethereum are still backed by a basket of tokens. You can exit the pool and get the underlying tokens.

   1. Open the pie token contract (the 'contract' column) in the explorer, Write tab, and connect your wallet.
   2. Call exitPool(amount) to receive the basket tokens pro rata.
   3. USD++ failed in a test. If your token is in a Balancer or Uniswap pool, remove that liquidity first.

7. Unclaimed Polygon PoS withdrawal

   Polygon PoS bridge

   $0 · 1 position

   You burned tokens on Polygon to withdraw to Ethereum, and the checkpoint is done, but the exit was never run on Ethereum. The tokens wait in the bridge.

   1. Open Polygon Portal and connect the wallet that withdrew.
   2. Find the withdrawal in your transactions and press Initiate Claim.
   3. Approve in your wallet, then press Claim Tokens. Pay the Ethereum gas fee. The tokens go to the burner address.
