No, the unbonding period on Indodax cannot be accelerated or canceled. The Staking feature is indeed a popular choice for earning income from your crypto assets. However, when you decide to stop and withdraw these assets (called unstaking), your assets are not instantly credited to your account balance. There is a waiting time that must be completed, known as the unbonding period.
Please note that this waiting period is not a rule created by Indodax to hold your funds. This rule comes directly from the network system of each respective coin (such as Ethereum, Polygon, or Polkadot). Since Indodax only acts as an intermediary connecting you with the coin's network, we must adhere to the coin system's rules. This waiting period is applied globally for highly important purposes, which are:
Maintaining System Security: Preventing irresponsible parties from committing fraud and immediately withdrawing their assets to run away.
Maintaining Market Stability: Preventing massive, simultaneous fund withdrawals that could disrupt the circulation of money and cause coin prices to plummet suddenly.
Each type of crypto asset has a different waiting period, ranging from a few days to several weeks. You do not need to worry, as we always clearly display this estimated waiting time in the Indodax application before you approve the asset withdrawal (unstaking) process.
