tBTC Withdrawal Guide

Withdrawing tBTC Directly from the acreBTC Contract

Withdrawing tBTC directly from the acreBTC contract.

Only users who deposited tBTC may withdraw tBTC directly from the acreBTC vault through Etherscan using any supported EVM wallet. {% endhint %}

Overview

The withdrawal process is the reverse of the deposit process. The Acre dapp does not currently support direct EVM wallet interactions for acreBTC withdrawals — but if you deposited directly through Etherscan, you can also withdraw directly through Etherscan by redeeming your acreBTC shares for tBTC with the requestRedeem function.

Etherscan step-by-step

1. Visit the acreBTC contract

1. Visit the acreBTC Etherscan page.

2. Navigate to Contract → Write as Proxy.

3. Open 11. requestRedeem.

4. Click Connect to Web3 and connect the wallet that holds the acreBTC tokens.

2. Complete the requestRedeem function (Section 11)

requestRedeem requests a redemption through the withdrawal queue. Complete the three fields:

Parameter	Type	What to enter
shares	uint256	Amount of acreBTC shares to redeem, entered in 18 decimals. Tip: use the Scale helper to type a human-readable amount and let Etherscan apply the decimals.
receiver	address	The wallet address that will receive the withdrawn tBTC. Most users click Self or use their connected wallet address.
owner	address	The address currently holding the acreBTC position (the owner of the shares). Most users click Self or use their connected wallet address.

Decimal examples for shares:

1 acreBTC   = 1000000000000000000
0.5 acreBTC =  500000000000000000

Note: You withdraw by redeeming acreBTC shares — not by entering a tBTC amount. The vault converts your shares into the corresponding amount of tBTC and routes the redemption through the withdrawal queue.

3. Submit the transaction

1. Click Write (optionally click Simulate first to preview the result).

2. Approve the wallet transaction.

3. Wait for Ethereum confirmation.

Your acreBTC shares will be redeemed and tBTC will be returned to the specified receiver address through the withdrawal queue.

4. Verify the withdrawal

1. View the transaction on Etherscan.

2. Confirm the tBTC balance appears in your wallet (you may need to manually add the tBTC token).

3. Confirm your acreBTC balance has decreased.

Troubleshooting

Insufficient acreBTC balance — You are attempting to withdraw more than you own. Reduce the shares value to an amount within your acreBTC balance.

Wrong owner address — The owner must match the wallet that holds the acreBTC position. Use Self or your connected wallet address.

Gas fee errors — Ensure sufficient ETH is available in your wallet to cover gas.
