About
Forgotten ETH finds and recovers ETH stuck in defunct smart contracts. Thousands of ETH remain locked in old DEXes, NFT marketplaces, ENS auctions, and ICO contracts that shut down years ago. Portfolio trackers don't index these — your ETH is still onchain, it just doesn't show up.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does it work? ▼
Paste any address or connect your wallet. We check 110 defunct contracts for unclaimed balances. If found, click Withdraw — the transaction goes directly from the original contract to your wallet. No custody of your funds.
Is this safe? ▼
Yes. Fully
open source. No proxy contracts, no intermediaries. Most withdrawals are simple ETH transfers with no approvals needed. Every withdrawal can be done manually on Etherscan — this site just makes it easier.
Do you charge fees? ▼
No. Completely free. After a successful claim, there's an optional donation prompt — entirely voluntary.
