When you stake your crypto, you’re rewarded for providing your funds to support the blockchain. Your rewards can be accumulated by staking or are automatically sent to your wallet. The frequency of your rewards depends on the blockchain you choose to stake with.

How do I earn rewards?

Cryptocurrencies that are based on blockchains using the Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism require their native crypto to be staked. This helps with validating transactions and maintaining the efficiency and security of the blockchain.

What is crypto Staking?

Staking cryptocurrencies is one of the least risky options to grow your assets. At Cryptology, we only support protocol staking, in which slashing is the only risk you may need to worry about.

Is Staking cryptocurrency safe?

You can unstake funds at any time. Rewards will stop accruing after the staking is closed, but you will get back the amount you used based on your selected staking option and unbonding period.

Can I unstake my funds at anytime? 

There are no gas fees when using Cryptology’s staking solutions. But by self-staking you may incur fees and this non-custodial option can also be expensive to set up due to the amount of crypto required and computational power necessary to run nodes.

Are there fees for staking?

By staking with Cryptology you minimize the potential risks associated with staking crypto. However, self-custodial staking is more complex and therefore has more risks associated - it requires a significant amount of crypto, there is the potential for slashing (where some of your funds can be lost), and if set up incorrectly, users risk losing all of their staked crypto.

Are there any risks associated with staking?

By staking with Cryptology you can trust our reliable and verified staking partners who are highly experienced validators and node operators.

What are the advantages of staking?

Cryptology currently supports crypto staking for Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL) and Polkadot (DOT), Kusama (KSM), Near (NEAR), and The Graph (GRT), with many more planned for the future. &nbsp;

What are the current supported currencies?

In order to start staking, you need to make a cryptocurrency deposit and pass verification before that. You can find out what levels of verification we have and what documents are required in our article&nbsp;<a href="https://cryptology.com/faq/cryptology-verification-process-43000430653">Cryptology verification process</a>.&nbsp;

How do I top up my Cryptology wallet?

You will receive rewards from your staked assets on Cryptology once a week.

How often are staking rewards paid?

The rewards from staking are determined by the relevant protocol. However, you can influence the percentage of the APR by choosing a Fixed or Flexible Staking type. The Fixed type of staking implies a higher APR.

What is the amount of rewards I will earn?

The main difference is in the unbonding period. This is the amount of time you need to wait to get the unstaked amount.<ul><li dir="ltr">By choosing a Flexible type of staking, you will have the option to get the unstaked amount without unbonding period with a lower APR.</li><li dir="ltr">By choosing a Fixed Staking type, you can get the unstaked amount with the higher offering APR and by unbonding period.&nbsp;</li></ul>

What is the difference between “Fixed” or “Flexible” Staking?

Click on the&nbsp;Transaction tab&nbsp;on&nbsp;the Grow page&nbsp;to see the rewards for your current staked crypto. To see all rewards earned in the closed stakings, please check the&nbsp;History tab&nbsp;on the&nbsp;Grow page.

Where can I view my staking rewards?

Your staked coins can be unstaked anytime immediately with our Flexible option or after the end of the unbonding period with our Fixed option. Then, your rewards will be auto-credited to your available balance on the Cryptology Exchange once they’re unstaked.

When can I unstake the coins I've staked?

Cryptology will pay yield out of its own platform income to provide yields for your stake. The APR varies based on market conditions and APRs provided by PoS &nbsp;protocols.

How is APR determined?

There are no hidden fees. The fee charged by Cryptology is already included in the APR.

 Web Version – www.cryptology.com  To trade on Cryptology you need to sign up first and then pass the verification process. To do this see a step-by-step How to Get Verified guide and come back. So let’s start trading!    Step 1: click on the "Exchange" tab to get started:    Step 2: next to the price chart you can find the order placement window. There are two main types of orders:  Limit (Limit Order) and Market (Market Order). The main difference between these types of orders is that with a market order, you do not need to manually set the price of the order, and the order itself will be instantly executed at the current price of the asset. To place a market order you need to select the currency and amount you want to buy or sell and click the Buy button (Sell if you would like to sell your assets). The order will be instantly executed at the market price. It is not possible to cancel a Market Order.    Please note, that you should have enough currency on your balance that you want to exchange. If the number of assets is not enough, you will receive a notification when placing an order. You can also check this on the Balances tab.  Step 3: A limit order executes at a selected price, which you need to set manually. In order to place a Limit Order, you need to enter the order volume and the price at which the order should be filled.  The order will be executed when the asset price reaches the specified values. Thus, there is no guarantee that the order will be filled, since the price of the asset may never reach the values you specified.    To cancel a Limit Order, please find the window with your open orders (under the price chart window) and click on the “X” button.     Risk Reminder: Investing in digital assets involves high risks due to large price fluctuations. Before investing, please consider all the risks of investing in digital assets and be careful with your investment decisions.   Mobile app  Step 1: Click on the "Exchange" tab to get started:     Step 2: Let's take a Market order as an example. Select the asset and then enter the amount you would like to buy/sell and click the “Buy”/ “Sell” button. The order will be immediately executed at the market price.   Step 3: To place a Limit Order, select a currency pair, specify the execution price, and order volume and click the “Buy” button (Sell if you are selling).  A Buy Limit Order can only be executed at or below the specified price, and a Sell Limit Order can only be executed at or above the specified price. Thus, there is no guarantee that it will be executed, as it depends on the market price.   There are two ways to cancel a Limit Order:  1. Go to the tab “Exchange” -> “Orders”. Click on the order you are interested in. Here you can see all information about the order: quantity, price, time, and status. You can also cancel the order in this window:   2. Go to the “Exchange” -> “Markets” tab and select the asset you are interested in. Click on the "Open Orders" tab under the price chart. There you can see all the information about your active orders: quantity, price, time, and status. You can also cancel the order in this window in the way described above.   How to check the order history?  Go to the tab “Exchange” -> “Orders”. In this window, you will see information about both open orders and already executed orders.    Risk Reminder: Investing in digital assets involves high risks due to large price fluctuations. Before investing, please consider all the risks of investing in digital assets and be careful with your investment decisions.

 On a highly volatile market, an order might be executed at a price that is different than expected. Let's see an example.   If bid-ask spread on BTC-EUR pair is €3460 by €3469, and you place a market order to buy 1 BTC, you may expect it to fill at €3469. In the fraction of a second, it takes for your order to reach the exchange something may change, or your quotes could be slightly delayed. The price you actually get maybe €3462. The €2 difference between your expected price of €3460 and the €3462 price you actually end up buying at is called slippage.  Slippage refers to the difference between the expected price of a trade and the price at which the trade is actually executed. Slippage often occurs during periods of higher volatility when market orders are used. A market order assures you get into the trade, but there is a possibility you will end up with slippage and a worse price than expected.   Slippage does not directly refer to a negative or positive movement, as any change between the expected and actual prices can qualify. When orders are executed, the corresponding securities are purchased or sold at the most favorable price available. This can cause an order to produce results that are more favorable, equal to or less favorable than original expectations with the results being referred to as positive slippage, no slippage and negative slippage, respectively.

Market Order Executed at a Different Price: Crypto Trading Basics

Why was my market order executed at a different price? 

 Frequently Asked Questions   Definitions:  Cryptology Perpetual Futures Contract: Our Perpetual Futures Contract is a derivative contract bonded to the price of the BTC price index as the underlying.   Index price: the Index Price is the average market price of different exchanges. The exchanges used for the Index Price are independent in order to avoid price manipulation.  Funding Rate: The Funding Rate, determines funds that will be received or marked off every 8 hours at 04:00 UTC, 12:00 UTC and 20:00 UTC.  So we have 3 funding intervals per day. You will only pay or receive the Funding amount if you hold a position at one of these times. If you close your position prior to the Funding Rate exchange then you will not pay nor receive the Funding Rate. When the Funding Rate is positive, longs pay shorts. When the Funding Rate is negative, shorts pay longs. Cryptology does not charge any fees on the Funding Rate amount nor the exchange of it between longs and shorts, the Funding Rate is exchanged directly peer-to-peer. The Funding, is necessary to maintain the contract price close to the Index Price and avoid price manipulation on the exchange.  Mark Price:the Mark Price displays the Unrealized PNL. It is used to calculate the liquidation of the position and avoid price manipulation.   Mark Price = Index Price * ( 1 + Funding Rate * (Time to Funding / Funding Interval))  Open interest: total number of contracts in the order book.   Total balance: overall valuation of clients assets.   Equity: is a sum of total balance and Unrealized PNL.    Available: available assets on balance that could be used for trading.    Initial Margin: the amount that is necessary to enter into a leveraged position.    Maintenance Margin: Maintenance Margin is 50% of the Initial Margin. When your Margin becomes less than the Maintenance Margin, the position will be closed using the liquidation procedure.    Unrealized PNL: PNL that is calculated as a difference of the average price of a deal and the Mark Price.    Realized PNL: Realized PNL is calculated using the average price of opening position and the average price of the closing position.    Est. Liq. Price: it is an approximate price for liquidating the position. If the Mark price touches the Liquidation Price, the position will be liquidated.   Liquidation price: is the price which will be used to close the position in the case of liquidation.    How is the Funding calculated?  Funding Rate = Interest Rate Differencial + Premium Index  Interest Rate Differencial  Let’s suppose that BTC landing rate is 0.03% and USD landing rate is 0.06%, and we have 3 funding intervals per day.  Interest Rate Differencial  = (0.06% - 0.03%) / 3 = 0.01%  Premium Index, Depending on the situation on the market, we determine impact bid price(IBP) and impact ask price(IAP). Impact price is calculated as Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) on the market for volume ~10 BTC  Premium Index = (max(0, Impact Ask Price - Mark Price) - max(0, Mark Price - Impact Bid Price)) / Index Price  The Funding Amount is equal to the position value times the Funding Rate.  For example, the Mark Price is 4000 USD. You create a buy limit order (taker fee) at 3:00 UTC of 5000 contracts (contract size: 1 USD) that is ~1.25 BTC.  You will pay a commission of 0.0003125 BTC [(5000*1)/4000*0.01%]  The Funding Rate is 0.01%. At 4:00 UTC the Funding will be charged from your balance.   Funding: -0.000125 BTC [(5000*1)/4000*0.01%]  After the price of BTC changes to 5000 USD and you decide to close part of your position, you would create a market order selling 4000 contracts.   You will also pay a commission of 0.0006 BTC [(4000*1)/5000*0.075%]  The Funding Rate is changed to -0.02%. At 8:00 UTC the Funding will be added to your balance for the remaining position of 1000 contracts .  Funding: +(1000*1)/5000*0.02%=+0.00004 BTC       How is my PNL calculated?  Assume that you bought 500 contracts (contract size: 1 USD) at 3800 USD and then sold by market order 400 contracts at 4000 USD.   As your position was not completely closed part of your unrealized PNL was transformed to realized PLN and the remaining of the position will be maintained as unrealized PNL:  You also made a taker order, therefore, you have to pay taker's fee = 400/4000 * 0.075% = 0.000075 BTC  Realized PNL = 400 * 1 * (1/3800 - 1/4000) =  0,005263157 BTC minus fee  Unrealized PNL = (500 - 400) * 1 * (1/3800 - 1/4000) = 0.0001315789 BTC      What are the applicable fees?  Cryptology has constant trading fees for perpetual futures.   Taker fees: 0.05%  Maker fees: 0.05%    FYI: Maintenance Margin includes commission for closing an open position and also include next funding to reduce the risk of wasting liquidation fund.    What is Cross-Margin?  When you open a position on Cross-Margin, the system will work to maintain your margin above liquidation level by taking funds from your available balance. If there are not enough funds on your account, the system checks if it is possible to cancel active orders that hold margin and cancel these. If both conditions take place, all the open positions are closed at Market Price.  Using Cross-Margin, Leverage is calculated as: Position size/Balance.   NOTE: Currently, Futures on the Android version only supports Cross-Margin. Isolated Margin will be available soon.      What is Isolated-Margin?  When you open a position on Isolated-Margin, the system will liquidate your position when it reaches liquidation level automatically. It will not take funds from your available balance, nor affect other open positions.  Using Isolated-Margin, you can fix the leverage you would like to use. The Margin will be calculated as: Position Size x Leverage.  NOTE: Currently, by default, the web version opens the position on Cross-Margin. If you wish to change this, you will need to drag the leverage forward towards x100, you will then see "Isolated" instead of "Cross".    What is the Insurance Fund?  Cryptology offers 100x leverage for Perpetual Futures Contract on Bitcoin, this is a highly volatile financial product. These two factors cause a high risk of default. To cover possible obligations of one trader to the others, we decided to create an Insurance Fund. The Insurance Fund is used according to the discretion and risk management policy of Cryptology. When opening a position, the trading system calculates two prices, the Liquidation Price and the Bankruptcy Price.   Depending on the size of the position, liquidity and market volatility, the actual average Liquidation Price could be even worse than the Bankruptcy Price. In these cases, losses concerned with the market condition will be covered from the Liquidation Fund. If there are not enough funds to cover losses of liquidation then the system automatically goes to Auto-Deleveraging Liquidation. In the opposite case, if the actual average Liquidation Price is better than the Bankruptcy Price, these funds will go to the Liquidation Fund.    What is Auto-DeLeveraging (ADL)?  Auto deleveraging is a procedure on the market when it is necessary to cover losses of some traders but there are not enough funds in the Liquidation Fund. In this case, the most profitable positions on the market will be automatically closed to cover losses.    Withdrawals:  Futures' withdrawals are processed everyday only one time per day at 10:00 UTC.   Processing time may take up to 2 hours.  Submit your withdrawal request by 10:00 UTC to be included in the same day's batch.

 How to trade futures on Cryptology?  Trading futures contracts on Cryptology is not as difficult as it might seem at first glance, but be careful, as futures trading carries more risks than trading on the spot market. If you already have a verified Cryptology account, you will be able to start trading futures in the next few minutes.  Before trading, it is desirable to understand the basic terms that are used in the futures market. Below are the basic terms you will need to understand the futures market.   Futures are contract agreements to buy or sell assets in the future for a set price. When you make a futures contract, you do not buy the asset itself since the futures contract is a derivative. Hence the main difference between the futures market and the spot market: on the spot market you purchase and own the asset, but futures trading works in another way - you take a position on an asset without actually owning it.  Leverage is one of the most important tools in futures trading. Leverage allows you to maximize the profit. For example, to buy 1 BTC on the spot market, you will need tens of thousands of dollars, depending on market prices. Let's say the current price of Bitcoin is $15,000, so you need $15,000 to buy 1 BTC. A futures contract allows you to open a futures position on an asset by paying only a fraction of its cost. This is possible only with leverage. The more leverage, the fewer funds you need to invest in a position, but the higher the risk of liquidation of your position will be. For example, with x10 leverage, you do not need the entire amount ($15,000), but only $1,500 to buy a 1 BTC contract. Leverage is not available in spot trading.  Position "Long" - purchasing an asset in anticipation of a further increase in the price of the asset. Can be compared to buying. Long traders or buyers are called “bulls”. The name of the growing market - is “bullish”.  The “Short” position is an entry into a deal in anticipation of a further decrease in the price of an asset. The “short” mechanism is more complicated and difficult to understand. In simple terms, you borrow an asset from the exchange and then sell it at the current price. When the price goes down, you buy the asset and return it back, and take the difference between the prices as your profit. Currently, this process is automated and happens instantly, so you do not need to borrow an asset from the exchange and sell it yourself. On our platform, you just need to open a position, and the system will do every step automatically. Short traders (or sellers) are commonly referred to as “bears”. This is why a down market is called a bear market.  Position liquidation. The most unpleasant term for every trader. Liquidation is the forced closure of a position due to insufficient maintenance margin for the position. The higher your leverage and the lower your maintenance margin, the higher the risk of liquidation of your position. You can find the rest of the futures market terms in our Futures Trading FAQ article.   You can find the instructions on how to start trading on Futures below:   First of all, you need to deposit funds to the Futures balance of your Cryptology account. There are several ways to do this: you can make a deposit to the address of your Futures wallet, and also you can transfer funds from your exchange wallet to the futures one. There are two Base assets available for trading on Futures: USDT and BTC.    Go to the Futures page:     Choose the leverage for your Futures position. To do this, click on the "Cross" button and select the leverage:    Select the type of position you would like to open (long or short), order type, and enter the position size. You can open a position both at the market price and at the price of a limit order.  There are two additional types of orders in the futures market: Stop Market and Stop Limit. A Stop Market order is triggered by a stop price. When the stop price is reached, this order becomes a market order and the position closes at the current price. A Stop Limit order is a conditional order that is executed at a specified limit price after the stop price is reached.  The difference is that once the stop price is reached, an order will be placed at the limit price.    Open a position and earn a profit!    Risk Reminder: Futures Trading is a high-risk instrument, it can both maximize your profits through the use of leverage, and lead to serious losses. Before trading futures, you should develop a trading strategy.

Bank transfer: Withdrawal using the SEPA or SWIFT methods

  What are the fees for the crypto deposits?  There are no fees for crypto deposits on Cryptology.  What are the limits for crypto deposits?  There are no limits for crypto deposits, however, you can be limited to the maximum amount depending on your verification level.  What happens if I send the wrong coin?  Cryptocurrency transactions, in their absolute majority, are irreversible. This means that if you send the wrong coin to the wrong wallet, it will probably be lost forever.  How do I get a wallet address? Getting a wallet is fairly easy for most currencies. However, there are countless options out there depending on your needs and how safe you want to be. Any wallet you get will give you the possibility to generate addresses. If you don’t see a “Generate address” or “My addresses” button, you can normally generate one on the “Receive/Send” section. On Cryptology you can get the deposit address by clicking the Deposit button.  Where is my crypto deposit?  First, please check if the transaction ID exists in the blockchain, as the wallets might delay the broadcasting. The transaction ID is a string of numbers and letters that you can use to verify your transfer data in the network. If the transaction already exists in the blockchain, please check whether it has enough confirmations. Different currencies can have different processing times. For example, ETH transactions are normally substantially faster than the BTC ones (several minutes versus up to an hour). If you believe your transaction is taking longer than expected, please contact our Support Team. Please note: for some currencies, such as XRP or XLM, specifying a tag when sending a transaction is mandatory. If the tag is not specified or is specified incorrectly, it will result in your funds being lost.   How do I make a crypto deposit?  You can make cryptocurrency deposits on Cryptology without any fees. Please go to the Balances page, select a currency and click "Deposit":    Then choose the Balance (Exchange or Futures), Wallet, Currency and click "Next":   Next, you will see the address for the deposit:  *Please check the network where the funds will be sent. In case the network was chosen incorrectly, the funds may be lost. In case your transaction has not been processed, please contact the Customer Support Team, and specify the email associated with the Cryptology account and transaction details.  

Crypto deposits

 What are the withdrawal fees?   On the Cryptology platform, you can make an instant withdrawal to an external cryptocurrency wallet. You can check the fees for each currency, minimum amounts, and available networks in our article Cryptology fees.  How can I speed up unconfirmed transactions?  After the transaction has been broadcasted to the network, there’s usually no way of affecting it and you can just wait for the confirmation. To make this process faster for future transactions, you can choose to pay a higher fee when setting up your transaction so it can be included in the block earlier.  What is a confirmation?  Transactions within the blockchain network are validated only when a certain number of miners (minimum of 3) confirm their authenticity and include them in the blocks that become part of the blockchain. When your transaction is broadcasted to the network, you need to wait for it to be confirmed by a sufficient amount of miners in order to be validated.  The processing is delayed, what should I do?  Crypto transactions depend on a certain number of approvals by the network to be validated. This can take slightly longer or less time than expected. However, you can check the status of your transaction by using the transaction ID on a blockchain explorer such as blockchain.info or etherscan.io  What if I sent the transaction to the incorrect address?  Unfortunately, all transactions broadcasted to the blockchain are irreversible. Once your coins are sent, it is practically impossible to recover them. However, there are some rare situations in which the transaction might fail and the money might be sent back. For example, Bitcoin addresses contain a built-in check code, so it's generally not possible to send Bitcoins to a mistyped address. However, if the address is well-formed but no one owns it, any coin sent to that address will be lost.  My withdrawal is Pending/In progress  Sometimes withdrawals may take longer than usual to process a transaction. If we need additional verification for security purposes, we will contact you via your account email. Please do not hesitate to contact our Support Team if you have any additional questions.  How do I make the crypto withdrawal?  In order to make a crypto withdrawal, please go to the Balances page, and click Withdraw:    Next, choose the Balance (Exchange or Futures) and the Wallet (Currency):    In the next step, add the wallet address, choose the network and the amount:    Normally, cryptocurrency withdrawals are processed within a few minutes. *Please check the network where the funds will be sent. In case the network was chosen incorrectly, the funds may be lost. In case your transaction has not been processed, please contact the Customer Support Team, and specify the email associated with the Cryptology account and transaction details.

 Cryptocurrencies that are based on blockchains using the Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism require their native crypto to be staked. This helps with validating transactions and maintaining the efficiency and security of the blockchain.  

 Staking cryptocurrencies is one of the least risky options to grow your assets. At Cryptology, we only support protocol staking, in which slashing is the only risk you may need to worry about. 

 When you stake your crypto, you’re rewarded for providing your funds to support the blockchain. Your rewards can be accumulated by staking or are automatically sent to your wallet. The frequency of your rewards depends on the blockchain you choose to stake with.  

 You can unstake funds at any time. Rewards will stop accruing after the staking is closed, but you will get back the amount you used based on your selected staking option and unbonding period. 

 There are no gas fees when using Cryptology’s staking solutions. But by self-staking you may incur fees and this non-custodial option can also be expensive to set up due to the amount of crypto required and computational power necessary to run nodes.  

 Cryptology is a cryptocurrency exchange, mobile app, and range of products created to empower newcomers to the world of crypto trading. We provide safe, simple, and smart ways for everyone to buy, sell, and trade cryptocurrency.

Staking T&Cs

Listing T&Cs

 By staking with Cryptology you minimize the potential risks associated with staking crypto. However, self-custodial staking is more complex and therefore has more risks associated - it requires a significant amount of crypto, there is the potential for slashing (where some of your funds can be lost), and if set up incorrectly, users risk losing all of their staked crypto.  

 By staking with Cryptology you can trust our reliable and verified staking partners who are highly experienced validators and node operators. 

 Cryptology currently supports crypto staking for Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL) and Polkadot (DOT), Kusama (KSM), Near (NEAR), and The Graph (GRT), with many more planned for the future.    

 In order to start staking, you need to make a cryptocurrency deposit and pass verification before that. You can find out what levels of verification we have and what documents are required in our article Cryptology verification process.  

  Log in to the Cryptology Exchange and click the “Grow” tab.  Select a crypto to stake and click “Next”. Choose the options (Fixed or Flexible) and the amount.   Activate "Automatic reward staking" to accumulate your reward every day and click “Confirm”.  Start earning rewards! You can follow the results on the Cryptology Grow - Open page and in your Balance dashboard.   

 You can top up your balance using a crypto deposit or a bank card deposit. On the Buy Crypto page, you can swap fiat for cryptocurrency and then use it for staking. 

 You will receive rewards from your staked assets on Cryptology once a week. 

 The rewards from staking are determined by the relevant protocol. However, you can influence the percentage of the APR by choosing a Fixed or Flexible Staking type. The Fixed type of staking implies a higher APR. 

 The main difference is in the unbonding period. This is the amount of time you need to wait to get the unstaked amount.   By choosing a Flexible type of staking, you will have the option to get the unstaked amount without unbonding period with a lower APR.  By choosing a Fixed Staking type, you can get the unstaked amount with the higher offering APR and by unbonding period.   

 Click on the Transaction tab on the Grow page to see the rewards for your current staked crypto. To see all rewards earned in the closed stakings, please check the History tab on the Grow page. 

 Your staked coins can be unstaked anytime immediately with our Flexible option or after the end of the unbonding period with our Fixed option. Then, your rewards will be auto-credited to your available balance on the Cryptology Exchange once they’re unstaked. 

 Cryptology will pay yield out of its own platform income to provide yields for your stake. The APR varies based on market conditions and APRs provided by PoS  protocols.  

 There are no hidden fees. The fee charged by Cryptology is already included in the APR. 

 We provide staking to users from all countries except the list of restricted countries according to our Terms and Conditions: Afghanistan, American Samoa, Canada, Cuba, Guam, Iran, Iraq, Japan, Lebanon, Libya, Myanmar, Nicaragua, North Korea, Northern Mariana Islands, Occupied territories of Ukraine, Pakistan, Puerto Rico, Russian Federation, Somalia, South Sudan, State of Palestine, Sudan, Syria, U.S. Virgin Islands, United Kingdom, United States of America, Uzbekistan, Venezuela, Yemen.  

 You can withdraw rewards immediately after they are credited to your available balance on the exchange. Use our instructions to make a crypto withdrawal or contact our Support Team if you need any help.
