My Solana Account Cleanup Tool: 200+ Accounts Closed Today!
I built a tool to help clean up unused Solana accounts, and today we hit a milestone: over 200 unused accounts closed with 0.48 SOL total volume reclaimed!
Why This Matters
- Get Your SOL Back: Reclaim locked funds from unused token accounts
- Network Optimization: Reduce blockchain state bloat
- Better Performance: Help validators run more efficiently
How It Works
Visit claimyoursols.app:
- Connect your wallet
- Scan for closeable accounts
- Close unused accounts (empty accounts, unwanted tokens, test tokens you created)
- Reclaim your locked SOL
What you can close:
- Empty token accounts
- Tokens you no longer need
- Test tokens you created during development
- Unwanted airdropped tokens
For Developers
// Account closure process
const closeInstruction = createCloseAccountInstruction(
accountToClose,
destination,
owner
);
Open Source
The entire project is open source at github.com/dawar2151/claimyoursols.app – full transparency and community contributions welcome. You can audit the code, submit improvements, and verify exactly what it does before connecting your wallet.
If you try it or like the project, please star it on GitHub!
