# Unstake

> Withdraw tokens from the staking pool

Unstaking is a two-step process:

1. **Initiate Unstake**: Request to withdraw funds. This starts the 7-day unbonding period.
2. **Unstake**: Claim the funds after the 7-day unbonding period has passed.

## 1. Initiate Unstake

```typescript theme={null}
import { executeInitiateUnstake } from '@avnu/avnu-sdk';
import { parseUnits } from 'ethers';

const result = await executeInitiateUnstake({
  provider: account,
  poolAddress: '0x...',
  amount: parseUnits('50', 18),
});
```

## 2. Claim Unstaked Funds

```typescript theme={null}
import { executeUnstake } from '@avnu/avnu-sdk';

const result = await executeUnstake({
  provider: account,
  poolAddress: '0x...',
});
```
