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

   $28 · 4 positions

   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

   $15 · 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. RNDR never swapped to RENDER

   $2 · 1 position

   You hold old RNDR on Ethereum that was never upgraded. The Render upgrade portal swaps it 1 to 1 for RENDER on Solana. The swap is one-way.

   1. Open the Render upgrade portal. You need an Ethereum wallet with RNDR and a Solana wallet.
   2. Connect both wallets.
   3. Approve RNDR and confirm the upgrade. You pay Ethereum gas.

4. NEAR Rainbow Bridge withdrawal

   <$1 · 1 position

   You moved an ERC-20 from NEAR to Ethereum and the tokens were burned on NEAR but never unlocked on Ethereum. The Ethereum light client stopped in April 2025, so claiming may not work.

   1. Open Rainbow Bridge and check if your withdrawal can still be finished.
   2. If it asks for a proof, the Ethereum light client is paused, so the step may fail.
   3. Ask the NEAR or Aurora team about the Omni Bridge for stuck Rainbow transfers.

5. Wormhole transfer not redeemed

   Wormhole Portal

   $0 · 1 positionNeeds the team

   You sent tokens with Portal (Wormhole), but nobody completed the transfer on the destination chain. You can redeem it yourself with the signed VAA (the guardians' signed message).

   1. Find your transfer on Wormholescan with your source transaction hash.
   2. If it is not redeemed, open Portal Bridge, choose Redeem, and complete it with your wallet.
   3. Or copy the VAA from the Advanced tab on Wormholescan and submit it on the destination chain contract (Etherscan Write tab).
