    • Ensure that your wallet is properly connected and has the necessary permissions.

  3. Unstake Your Stake

    • Follow the instructions on the page to unstake your stake.

Important Lock Periods

• 30-Day Lock Period: There is a 30-day lock period from when you first staked your tokens. During this period, you cannot unstake your tokens. This lock period begins from the moment you initially stake your tokens.

• 2-Day Lock Period to Withdraw: After initiating the unstaking process, there is an additional 2-day lock period before you can fully withdraw your unstaked tokens. This 2-day period starts from the time you submit the unstaking transaction.

Important Notes

  • Security: Make sure your validator wallet is securely connected to avoid any unauthorized access.

  • Transaction Accuracy: Always double-check the details before confirming any transactions to ensure accuracy.

  • Penalties: Unlocking tokens that were staked during the validator node registration process while the validator node is running will penalize the validator node. Validators must ensure that their staked tokens remain staked for the entire duration that the validator node is active to avoid penalties.

  • Support: If you encounter any issues or need assistance, refer to the help section on the staking website or contact support.

By following these simple steps, you can easily manage and withdraw your validator profits as well as unstake your stake on the TAOevm network.
