1. Lighter withdrawal not collected

   $261 · 1 position

   You withdrew from Lighter and the money reached the Ethereum contract, but you never collected it. It waits in the contract for you.

   1. Open the Lighter app and go to withdraw history.
   2. Press the claim button on the pending withdrawal. Or use the Write tab of the ZkLighter contract 0x3B4D794a66304F130a4Db8F2551B0070dfCf5ca7 on Etherscan and call withdrawPendingBalance.
   3. Confirm and pay the Ethereum gas fee. Funds go to the owner address.

2. USDC burned but not minted

   Circle CCTP

   $29 · 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.

3. Symbiotic withdrawal not claimed

   $7 · 1 position

   You withdrew from a Symbiotic vault and the epoch has ended, but you never claimed the tokens. They wait in the vault for the claimer address.

   1. Open the Symbiotic app and connect the claimer wallet.
   2. Find the vault with a claimable withdrawal and press Claim.
   3. Confirm and pay gas in ETH.

4. zkSync Lite balance not claimed

   $3 · 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.

5. Archived L2 bridge funds

   Archived L2s

   <$1 · 1 positionMay 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.

6. ETH in Blur Pool

   <$1 · 1 position

   You deposited ETH into the Blur Pool to bid on NFTs and never took it out. 1 pool token equals 1 ETH and you can withdraw at any time.

   1. Open the Blur Pool contract on Etherscan and go to Write as Proxy or Write Contract.
   2. Connect the wallet that holds the balance.
   3. Call withdraw with the amount in wei (18 decimals), then confirm.
