Overview
One way my Claude/GPT subscription had paid off: finding forgotten funds.
Workflow
The author used Claude and ChatGPT to scan their entire blockchain transaction history. The AI attempted to recompose transactions to identify deposits that were never followed by withdrawals, revealing forgotten airdrops and funds. The human role involved initiating these periodic scans and reviewing the AI's findings to reclaim assets.
Reported result
The author claims to have recovered approximately 10 times the annual cost of their AI subscriptions in forgotten funds this year. No specific dollar amounts or verification metrics were provided in the source. A measurable acceptance check would be the total value of reclaimed assets versus the subscription cost over a defined period.
Human role
The original post does not say how a person stayed involved.
Limitations
The source does not specify the technical prerequisites for connecting AI models to blockchain data or the exact prompts used. There is uncertainty regarding the reliability of AI in accurately parsing complex transaction histories without false positives. Human verification is critical before moving any funds, as the AI only identifies potential opportunities.
Try it
Act as a blockchain analyst assistant. I will provide a list of my wallet addresses and a CSV export of my transaction history from [replaceable input: e.g., Etherscan or Blockchair]. Your task is to analyze this data to identify 'forgotten funds.' Specifically, look for incoming transactions (deposits/airdrops) that have no corresponding outgoing transaction (withdrawal) to the same or a linked address. Steps: 1. Parse the provided transaction data. 2. Group transactions by asset type and sender. 3. Flag any asset received that remains unspent in the wallet. 4. Generate a report listing the asset name, amount, date received, and transaction hash. 5. Do NOT attempt to execute any transactions or provide private keys. Before processing the full dataset, perform a dry run on a sample of 10 transactions to verify your logic. Show me the sample output for confirmation. If the logic is correct, proceed with the full analysis. If data is missing or ambiguous, ask clarifying questions about specific transaction types. Ensure the final output is a clear table ready for my manual review.
