April was the biggest shipping month yet at UnclaimedSOL. New cashback system, official Telegram bot, public feedback board, and a dry-run scanner that lets anyone check a wallet without connecting first. Here’s the full recap.
518+ SOL reclaimed for users in April
Our scanners returned 518.388492293 SOL to wallet owners in April across 27,290 successful claims from 8,184 unique wallets. That works out to 17.28 SOL flowing back to users every single day — money that was already theirs, just stuck in dormant token accounts, deactivated stakes, leftover program buffers, and forgotten DeFi reward accounts.
A few numbers worth pulling out from the month:
- 27,290 successful claims
- 8,184 unique wallets served
- 0.018995548 SOL average claim size
- 0.003967223 SOL median claim size
- 17.279616410 SOL average per day
The gap between the average and the median tells the same story we see every month. Most claims are small recoveries from routine token-account cleanup, but a long tail of bigger wallets — usually traders, validators, and old DeFi power users — pulls the average up. Both kinds of users got their SOL back.
Cashback system, now live
Early in the month we launched our 1% cashback system. Every claim now credits 1% in real SOL to your cashback balance, and once that balance hits 0.05 SOL you can request a payout.
A few things make it different from the usual crypto “rewards” experience. The cashback is real SOL — not points, not credits in an app-only wallet, not a token you’ve never heard of. The 1% is calculated from the on-chain verified claim amount, not a number the frontend reports, which keeps the system fair and abuse-resistant. And the structure quietly rewards repeat users: small claims add up, and active wallets with several cleanup opportunities tend to hit the payout threshold faster than expected.

Official Telegram bot launched
We shipped the official Unclaimed SOL Telegram bot in April. Open @unclaimed_sol_bot, type /scan followed by a Solana address, and the bot returns a full breakdown of reclaimable SOL across six categories — empty token accounts, program buffers, deactivated stakes, spam NFTs, Token-2022 accounts, and unclaimed DeFi rewards.
The bot also supports /alerts to monitor up to five wallets, a /leaderboard showing the top claimers in real time, and a group mode that lets DAOs, trading communities, and validator channels run scans from inside their existing chats. The scan happens in Telegram. The actual claim still happens on our audited web app, where your own wallet signs the transaction — the bot never touches private keys.
This was one of our most-requested features. A huge portion of our user base lives inside Telegram trading groups and DAO channels, and asking them to leave the app to scan a wallet was friction worth removing.

Public feedback and feature requests board
We opened a public roadmap and feedback board at unclaimed-sol.fdback.io. If you’ve got an idea, a complaint, a wallet integration request, a missing reward category, or anything else you want us to look at, post it there. Votes are visible, the roadmap is public, and we’ll be working through requests in the open.
This is now the canonical channel we’ll use to prioritize what gets built next, so the more specific the request, the better the chance it ends up shipped.
Dry-run scanning by address — no connection required
We closed out the month with Scan by Address, a dry-run mode that lets anyone paste a Solana wallet address and instantly see how much reclaimable SOL it holds — without connecting a wallet, signing a transaction, or exposing any keys.
The motivation was simple. Users kept asking “is it even worth connecting?” before walking through the flow. Now you can answer that question first: paste the address, review the estimate, and only connect your wallet if there’s something worth claiming. The scan is read-only by design and can’t move funds or change anything in the wallet. Visibility before signing.
It’s especially useful for traders inspecting old wallets, DAOs reviewing treasuries, NFT collectors checking burner addresses, and anyone managing multiple wallets who wants a fast first look before deciding to authenticate.

What’s next
May is focused on broadening wallet integrations, fixing reported bugs, working through the top-voted requests on the new feedback board, deepening the Telegram experience based on early usage data, and continuing to expand the reward categories our scanners cover.
If you haven’t scanned your wallet lately — or if you scanned weeks ago and have been actively trading since — now is a good time to check again. Run a free scan by address or open @unclaimed_sol_bot in Telegram.
