Babylon offers two methods to withdraw assets:
- Early unstaking: You need to unstake (officially referred to as unbond by Babylon) first and then withdraw.
- Natural expiration: You can directly withdraw your assets without the need to unstake first.
Follow these steps to unstake assets before expiraion.
