Burn Spam NFTs and Reclaim Locked SOL

What are spam NFTs?

Spam NFTs are unwanted tokens airdropped to Solana wallets without the owner's consent. They often impersonate legitimate projects, contain phishing links in their metadata, or simply clutter your wallet with worthless collectibles.

Every spam NFT creates a token account in your wallet. Each of these accounts locks approximately 0.002 SOL as a rent-exempt deposit. If your wallet has received dozens or hundreds of spam airdrops, the locked SOL adds up.

The problem is two-fold: spam NFTs are annoying to look at, and they're actively locking your SOL. Burning them solves both problems.

Why you should burn spam NFTs

• Recover locked SOL — each burned spam NFT returns ~0.002 SOL in rent to your wallet
• Clean up your wallet — remove clutter that makes it harder to find your real NFTs and tokens
• Reduce phishing risk — spam NFTs often contain malicious links in their metadata. Burning removes the risk of accidentally interacting with them
• Improve wallet performance — fewer accounts means faster wallet loading and scanning

How Unclaimed SOL handles spam NFTs

Unclaimed SOL identifies spam and low-value tokens by checking market data, liquidity, and value thresholds. In max mode, it includes tokens with no price data (assumed worthless) and tokens valued under $1.

1. Connect your wallet and scan for all reclaimable account types
2. Review the list of identified spam and low-value tokens
3. Approve the burn-and-close transaction
4. Tokens are burned, accounts are closed, and rent SOL is returned to your wallet

• Tokens valued above the threshold are excluded from the burn list
