There Is $35M Stuck on Solana And Here Is How Some Of It Can Come To You
Imagine sending money to the wrong address and finding out it can never come back. This is not because someone stole it, not because it was burned but just because the system had no way to return it.
That has been happening on Solana since 2020.
176,961 SOL, worth about $35 million today, is sitting frozen inside Solana token addresses that nobody can spend from. These are called mint accounts, and they are the addresses that hold the rules for every token on Solana.
The problem is that a mint account address looks exactly like a regular wallet address. So people send SOL there by mistake, and it gets stuck. Permanently. The data is public and verifiable on Dune Analytics across 869,204 mint accounts.
The largest known amounts bricked right now:
• BOME: 6,328 SOL
• LUCE: 3,976 SOL
• Old Slerf: 3,514 SOL
• $WATER: 2,518 SOL
• MELANIA: 1,887 SOL
• DJT: 1,674 SOL
• WSOL: 1,515 SOL
• TRUMP: 1,349 SOL
• $NAP: 1,290 SOL
• MAPS: 1,165 SOL
For years, nobody could fix this. The Solana token program simply had no tool for getting that money out.
Then in May 2026, a team called Anza shipped an upgrade called p-token. It made Solana tokens 95% cheaper to use and quietly added one new feature: the ability to pull stuck SOL out of these frozen accounts for the first time ever.
But here is the catch. Not everyone can get their money back.
It depends on whether your token still has an active controller wallet, called a mint authority. If yes, you can withdraw right now. If you gave up that control as a trust signal to your community, which most projects do, then the only way to recover is if you kept a very specific key from the day you launched your token. Most people threw that key away without knowing it mattered.
Now, how exactly do you make money from this?
• Step 1: Check any token's mint on https://t.co/6MPWLIJFp5
• Step 2: If SOL is there, trace who sent it on Solscan
Contact the dev team. Most have no idea this money exists
• Step 3: Reach out to the original sender on-chain. They may not know they can claim it back
• Step 4: Negotiate a finder's fee for surfacing the opportunity
One of my students @NoahBiliamin built a tool for exactly this. Sol Recovery (https://t.co/g0eMtqvOGJ, @solrecovery1) shows you whether your token has stuck SOL, whether recovery is possible, and walks you through claiming it without ever giving up your private keys. 10% fee only if you successfully recover.
If the money is still recoverable, it is yours. You just need to know where to look.
