1. Balancer rescue reward not claimed

   Balancer, Merkl

   $6 · 3 positions

   After the 3 Nov 2025 Balancer v2 exploit, some funds were rescued. If you held pool tokens at the snapshot block, you can claim your share. Balancer is winding down, so claim soon.

   1. Open balancer.fi and look for the rescued-funds claim page. Connect the wallet that held the pool tokens at the snapshot block.
   2. Check your amount, sign Balancer's claim terms (you release Balancer from liability), then send the claim and pay gas.
   3. Chains: Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon. Contract wallets: Balancer asked them to write to [email protected].

2. Mooniswap (1inch) LP tokens

   Mooniswap (1inch AMM, Ethereum)

   $3 · 3 positions

   Mooniswap was a 1inch exchange on Ethereum. Your LP tokens give you a share of the tokens in the pool, and the pool can still pay out.

   1. Find your pool with getAllPools() on factory 0xbAF9A5d4b0052359326A6CDAb54BABAa3a3A9643 (v1) or 0x71CD6666064C3A1354a3B4dca5fA1E2D3ee7D303 (v2), and open it in the explorer.
   2. If the LP tokens are staked in a farm, unstake them first.
   3. Call withdraw(amount, minReturns) from your wallet.

3. Polygon zkEVM balance

   $2 · 1 position

   Polygon zkEVM's sequencer stopped on 1 July 2026. Wallet-held funds not bridged before then can be claimed on Ethereum in a claim UI. Polygon treats unclaimed assets as abandoned after 2027-12-31.

   1. Open the Polygon zkEVM claims site and connect the wallet that held the funds.
   2. Pick your balances and send the claim transaction on Ethereum.
   3. Funds locked inside DeFi contracts are not auto-migrated. Ask Polygon through the forum post.

4. zkSync Lite balance not claimed

   $1 · 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. 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 Your USDC can still be taken out through the escape hatch, or withdrawn if already released.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. 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.
