LOS ANGELES - TelAve -- Over $70 billion in unclaimed property is currently held by US state treasuries, representing funds from dormant bank accounts, uncashed checks, forgotten securities, insurance payouts, and utility deposits. According to the National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrators (NAUPA), more than 33 million Americans have unclaimed funds waiting to be returned, with the average claim exceeding $2,080.

CryptoAndMoneySearch.com is a free online tool that lets anyone search across all 50 US states simultaneously — no account creation, no registration fee, and no subscription required. Users simply enter their name, select their country, and the tool surfaces links to official state unclaimed property databases, the NAUPA-endorsed MissingMoney.com (active in 49 states), and the federal unclaimed.org registry.

Most Americans are unaware that unclaimed property laws require financial institutions to hand dormant funds over to the state after a dormancy period of one to five years — at which point the state holds the money indefinitely on the rightful owner's behalf. Common sources of unclaimed property include forgotten bank accounts, uncashed payroll or insurance checks, matured savings bonds, and utility security deposits.

In addition to traditional unclaimed money, CryptoAndMoneySearch.com covers crypto asset recovery, including claim portals for users of bankrupt exchanges — FTX, Celsius, Mt. Gox, BlockFi, Voyager, Genesis, Binance.US, and Bittrex. With billions of dollars in crypto claim distributions currently underway, the tool helps affected users locate the correct official claim portals and deadlines.

"We built this tool because searching for unclaimed money across 50 different state websites is time-consuming and confusing," said the CryptoAndMoneySearch team. "We wanted to bring all those searches into one place — and make it completely free."

The average US state processes over 1 million unclaimed property claims per year, but many Americans never search at all. A NAUPA report found that states returned over $4.7 billion to rightful owners in a single year — yet the total holdings continue to grow.
