Unstake Your Marinade SOL Position

Easily unstake your SOL from Marinade using Instant or Delayed modes with clear steps, screenshots, and tips

Written by CopyCat

Step 1: Navigate to the "Portfolio" Tab

After connecting your wallet, click on the Portfolio tab in the navigation menu. You will see a list of your current staking positions.

Click the Manage button for the position you wish to unstake.


Step 2: Enter the Amount You Wish to Unstake

If you want to unstake from more than one position, click the dropdown to select the position you want to unstake.

Once selected, enter the amount of SOL you would like to unstake.


Step 3: Choose Unstake Mode (Instant or Delayed)

Next, choose your preferred unstaking mode:

  • Instant: Your SOL becomes available immediately after the transaction is confirmed. The amount you receive is set by a real-time quote from liquidity providers or a DEX. See Instant Unstake on Marinade for details.

  • Delayed: Your SOL becomes claimable at the start of the next epoch (or the one after, if you start in the last 4 hours of the current epoch). A 0.2% protocol fee applies. See Delayed Unstake on Marinade for details.

The app will display the fee and estimated timeline based on your selection. Choose your preferred mode and approve the transaction in your wallet.

Note: If your position is still in "initialized" status, you will only be able to use the Delayed unstake option. Instant unstaking is not available for positions that haven't yet been fully delegated.


Step 4: Review and Complete Unstake

For Instant unstaking, your SOL will be available immediately after the transaction is confirmed.


Steps 5 and 6 apply only if you selected the Delayed unstake option.

Step 5: Confirm Unstake Position

Navigate back to the Portfolio tab. You should now see your position with a faded-out Claim button and a status indicator showing the remaining time until your stake is ready to be claimed.


Step 6: Claim Your SOL

After the countdown reaches zero, return to the Portfolio tab and click Claim to receive your unstaked SOL.
