Unstaking Ethereum

How to unstake ETH from Chorus One Pools, Eigenlayer and Symbiotic.

How to Unstake

To unstake your staked position, go to the Unstake tab and enter the amount of ETH you would like to unstake and hit the 'Unstake' button.

Note: If you minted osETH at any point any time against your staked position, you will have to burn that amount to unstake all your ETH.

If this applies for you, please skip down to the section:

You will be prompted to sign the unstaking transaction in your wallet. Once you have done so, you will have successfully unstaked your position.

Once you unstake your ETH, it enters the withdrawal queue. You will see a progress bar right below the success message that lets you know the status of your withdrawable stake.

Once your ETH becomes ready for withdrawal you can click the "Withdraw" button to claim the stake back into your wallet.

You can come back to the Unstake tab at a later point and check the status of your withdrawal.

How Long Does it Take to Unstake My ETH?

Unstaking your Ethereum from OPUS Pool will vary on a few factors, however, it can range from as short as 24 hours to 14+ days, most contingent on stake size.

  • Larger delegations being unstaked are more likely to take longer.

The factors that may affect the unstaking time include how much ETH is liquid in the pool, activity in the exit queue, sweep delay, and most importantly the size of the ETH unstaking transaction being processed.
