Unlocking

Unlock your sp tokens by starting the waiting period, then reclaim your asset during the claim window

Unlock Period

When you select Request Unlock, your spAVAX enters a waiting window while the underlying AVAX is unbonded from validators. This unlock period is designed to mirror Avalanche’s native unstaking time and will be set by governance between 7 and 30 days on mainnet. (Note: the 60-second timer you see now applies only to test environments.)

Claim Window

After the unlock period ends, a claim window opens. During this time, you can redeem your unlocked AVAX back to your wallet. The claim window is currently 7 days on testnet, and will be governance-adjustable between 1 hour and 30 days on mainnet. If you don’t claim within that window, your AVAX remains safely in the pool—you’ll just need to submit a new claim request later.
