Policy Update

Early Withdrawal Policy

Learn how early unlocking works, what conditions apply, and how Uncharted Network protects both investors and system stability.

Policy Overview
  • Early withdrawal is allowed at any time.
  • 100% of accrued interest is forfeited.
  • Dynamic fees apply (1.5% - 5%).
  • Processing takes 1-21 days depending on liquidity.
  • Installment options available for lower fees.
  • Requests enter a queue during high demand.

1. Loss of Accrued Interest

To protect the system from abuse and ensure fairness to committed stakers, any early withdrawal results in the complete forfeiture of all interest accrued during the current lock period. You will only receive your principal amount minus the early withdrawal fee.

2. Dynamic Early Withdrawal Fee

A fee is applied to the principal amount to cover the cost of rebalancing the liquidity pool. This fee goes directly into the Reserve to strengthen system stability.

Standard Withdrawal
3% – 5%

For one-time, lump-sum withdrawals.

Installment Withdrawal
1.5% – 2.5%

Reduced fee for splitting withdrawal into parts.

3. Processing Time & Liquidity Windows

Capital in Uncharted is actively deployed in Futures, Spot markets, and Reserves. It cannot always be withdrawn instantly without disturbing the trading engine. Processing times are estimates based on current liquidity conditions.

Small Amounts
1–3 Days
Medium Amounts
3–10 Days
Large Amounts
7–21+ Days

4. Installment Withdrawals (Recommended)

For larger amounts, you can choose to split your withdrawal into 2–4 installments. This reduces the stress on the system and, in return, we reduce your early withdrawal fee by up to 50%.

5. The Queue System

If many users request withdrawals simultaneously, requests enter a First-In-First-Out (FIFO) queue. You can track your position and estimated completion time directly from your dashboard.
