Throwaway accounts, old accounts generated with dodgy seeds, or simply retiring accounts after specific strategies: there are many reasons to archive an address that is no longer in use but keep it in Lighthouse for future use cases.

Archived accounts in Lighthouse differ from Active accounts:

  • Assets and positions in an archived accounts are not tracked and don’t add any balance to your portfolio but older positions are not removed.

  • In the Accounts list page, archived accounts display a grey circle to the left of their Name (instead of a green circle for Active accounts).

  • By default, the Accounts list will hide archived accounts. Change this by clicking on the “Status” filter at the top of the Accounts list.

How to archive or unarchive an account

  1. Select the Accounts page on the left sidebar.

  2. Click on the â‹® button at the end of a row of the account you want to archive.

  3. Select Archive account option from the dropdown menu.

The account has now been archived and, from now on, its assets and positions are removed from your portfolio balances.
