1. Unclaimed Arbitrum withdrawal

   Arbitrum One, Arbitrum Nova

   $10,870 · 1 position

   You withdrew ETH or tokens from Arbitrum to Ethereum but never did the final claim on Ethereum. The challenge period (about 6.4 days) is long over, so the funds can be claimed now.

   1. Open the Arbitrum bridge and connect the receiving wallet.
   2. Open Transactions and find the withdrawal marked Claim, or paste the withdrawal transaction hash.
   3. Press Claim and confirm. You pay the Ethereum gas fee. The funds go to the recipient.

2. Curve fees not claimed (3CRV)

   $94 · 1 position

   You locked CRV in veCRV and earned fee rewards in 3CRV from the old Curve fee distributor, but never claimed them. They are still in the contract.

   1. Open the contract's Write tab on the block explorer and connect your wallet.
   2. Call claim with your address. Anyone can call it; the tokens go to you.
   3. If many weeks are unclaimed, repeat the call; each call covers up to 20 weeks.
   4. Check your wallet for the 3CRV.

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

   $23 · 2 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.

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. STG never swapped to ZRO

   Stargate / LayerZero

   $3 · 1 position

   You hold STG that was never swapped to ZRO. The official redemption site gives 0.08634 ZRO per STG. LayerZero says conversions end on 15 December 2026.

   1. Open the STG Redemption site and connect the wallet that holds STG on Ethereum.
   2. Sign the Terms of Conversion message when asked, approve STG, then confirm the swap.
   3. Do this before 15 December 2026. Conversions are not supported after that date.
   4. Without the site: call swap(stgAmount, signature) on 0x921949cc006A563D76Abd111a3e4c2ACe2C4273f. The signature is of the Terms text.

6. Balancer v2 pool share

   $2 · 1 position

   You hold Balancer v2 pool tokens, in your wallet or staked. You can exit the pool. Balancer has proposed a wind-down: if it passes, pools become withdraw-only on 30 Oct 2026.

   1. Open the Balancer app, find your pool and use Remove liquidity. Do this before 30 Oct 2026.
   2. If the app does not work, call exitPool on the Balancer v2 Vault 0xBA12222222228d8Ba445958a75a0704d566BF2C8 (Etherscan, Write tab).
   3. If your tokens are staked in Aura, Beefy or a gauge, unstake there first.
