3. zkSync Lite balance not claimed

   $20 · 4 positions

   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.

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

   $7 · 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.

8. Nucleus vault shares

   Nucleus (BoringVault)

   $5 · 1 position

   Nucleus deprecated its vaults on 19 Dec 2025 and the withdraw page is gone. You can redeem vault shares through the Teller contract, but only for assets the vault still holds.

   2. Check which tokens the vault still holds, and your vault token balance, on Etherscan (or the Plume explorer).
   3. On the vault's Teller contract, Write tab, call bulkWithdraw(withdrawAsset, shareAmount, minimumAssets, to). The guide says to use 0 for minimumAssets.

    $2 · 1 positionNeeds the team

    Harmony proposed (non-binding, 7 Sept 2026) a final snapshot and an ERC-20 ONE airdrop on Ethereum. This list shows positions at the last block our data saw. You cannot sign anything on the chain now.

    1. Do not expect to withdraw this yourself. The chain is halted.
    2. Watch Harmony's official channels for the vote result and the snapshot rules.

    2. Sign the Terms of Conversion message when asked, approve STG, then confirm the swap.

12. GMX v1 GLP staked

    <$1 · 1 position

    1. Open v1.app.gmx.io, connect your wallet and use the Sell GLP page. If your GLP is staked, the page unstakes it as part of the sale.
    2. If the page fails, call unstakeAndRedeemGlp(tokenOut, glpAmount, minOut, receiver) on RewardRouterV2: Arbitrum 0xB95DB5B167D75e6d04227CfFFA61069348d271F5.
