Received a notice?
Take it step by step.
- Establish the official source.Record the case name, court, and claimed administrator. Verify them through an independently located official channel.
- Read the scope and instructions.Find the covered activity, relevant dates, exclusions, and each action described in the notice.
- Keep the supporting record.Preserve originals, note unresolved questions, and follow the actual submission instructions.
Careful with recovery promises
A convincing message
isn’t verification.
Before relying on a recovery offer, ask what evidence supports the sender’s authority and where you can verify it independently.
- Separate the sender’s claims from verified facts.
- Protect account access and private recovery information.
- Preserve messages without forwarding sensitive records.

Before you take the next step.
Does holding Bitcoin, Ethereum, or Solana mean I have a claim?
Holding an asset alone does not establish eligibility. Start with the exact business or product, the conduct alleged, the relevant period, and the definition in the official documents. Our class action guide explains how to frame those questions.
Can I file a claim on this website?
No. We publish independent educational information and do not administer settlements, collect claim documents, or determine eligibility. Use the verified official instructions for the particular case or program.
Is a proposed settlement the same as an approved settlement?
No. A proposal and a court’s approval are different events. In the U.S. federal class action setting, Rule 23(e) governs approval of settlements that would bind class members. Read the actual order and official notice for the matter. See the settlement process guide and its official source.
Where should I check a deadline?
Use the current official notice and any later court order or official update. Record which action the date applies to, the required method, and the stated time zone. The deadline guide explains why claims, exclusions, and objections should be tracked separately.
What if I need advice about my own situation?
A qualified lawyer can evaluate your rights and the facts of a specific matter. This site provides general education and cannot tell you whether to participate, object, request exclusion, or pursue an individual action.
