Resize Your Solana NFTs and Reclaim SOL: New Metaplex Update and How SolRIP is Taking It Further
In an exciting development for the Solana ecosystem, Metaplex recently introduced a feature to resize token metadata accounts, allowing NFT holders to reclaim excess SOL stored in older accounts. This update optimizes storage and gives users a chance to recover valuable SOL — a crucial step toward making Solana lighter and more efficient.
But here’s where SolRIP takes it further. Within just 72 hours of Metaplex’s announcement, we rolled out our own resizing feature, with access to more collections than Metaplex’s official platform initially included.
Some legacy collections — like SolPunks, SSBxSolPunks, BitBirdz, and over 30 others — were missing from their site at launch. After seeing SolRIP’s inclusive approach, Metaplex has since updated their list to match ours.
At SolRIP, we’re committed to making this resizing feature available for every collection — so if you encounter any NFTs that can’t be resized, simply open a ticket on our Discord. We’ll continue to make adjustments to ensure everyone can reclaim what’s rightfully theirs.
Why Resize Your NFTs?
Older NFTs on Solana often have metadata accounts that are larger than necessary, resulting in extra storage fees. By resizing these accounts, holders can recover some of those initial costs as SOL, while also helping to streamline Solana’s network. Resizing frees up blockchain storage, benefiting both individual holders and the entire ecosystem.
For NFTs minted after Metaplex’s announcement or any Metaplex Core NFTs, resizing is not necessary — they’re already optimized. This resizing feature specifically benefits older NFTs with oversized metadata accounts.

SolRIP’s Advantage: More Access, More SOL
While Metaplex’s resizing update is a great start, their initial launch excluded certain collections. SolRIP steps in to offer an alternative, with a promise to cover every collection, even those that were initially left out. More collections mean more SOL reclaimed for you, and we’re here to ensure nothing is overlooked.
If you come across an NFT collection that still doesn’t appear on our resizing page, let us know via Discord. Our team is committed to providing support for any missing assets to make sure you can reclaim every bit of SOL available.

SolRIP’s Core Feature: Burn Your NFTs & Tokens
Beyond resizing, SolRIP’s primary mission is to help users burn unwanted NFTs, tokens, and assets that are cluttering their wallets. Our burning feature not only lets you reclaim some SOL but also helps keep the Solana blockchain clean by removing dead assets and scam tokens. This is how we sustain our platform, through a small percentage fee from each burn. Burning with SolRIP is safe, effective, and gives you control over your digital assets.
Combine Burn & Resize for Maximum Efficiency
With SolRIP, you can burn and resize in one session. While you can’t burn and resize the exact same NFTs, our platform automatically identifies which assets you selected for burning or resizing. Simply connect your wallet, choose what you want to burn, what you want to resize, and we’ll handle the rest.
By using SolRIP, you’re reclaiming your funds, streamlining your wallets, and supporting the ongoing development of a powerful platform for Solana users.
So, if you’re ready to make the most of your Solana assets, try out SolRIP today. Reclaim your SOL, clean up your wallets, and let’s keep Solana lean, efficient, and powerful together.
