FAQ

1. Do I need to hold USDT/USDC to subscribe to ETH/BTC pair?

No, you don't have to.

2. Can I redeem before the expiration date?

No. Early redemption isn't available for ETH/BTC.

3. When can I redeem my order?

The order can be redeemed 24 hours after the interest started to accrue, and no later than 24 hours before the expiration time.

Take for example, an order with the following details:

Interest accrual time: 03/01/2022, 08:00 UTC

Expiration time: 03/11/2022, 08:00 UTC

Then, the order can be redeemed at any time between:

Start time: 03/02/2022, 08:00 UTC

End time: 03/10/2022 08:00 UTC

4. When will my returns be credited to my Funding account?

If your redemption is successful, your crypto will be credited to your Funding account the following day at 10:00 UTC.

5. Does early redemption incur a loss?

If you choose to redeem early, you'll be able to review the exact amount of crypto you'll receive. Redeeming early may lead to losses, as the amount could be less than the initial subscription amount.

Choosing early redemption also means you'll only receive the crypto that you used to invest. For example, if you invested BTC, you'll only be able to redeem BTC and won't have the choice of redeeming in USDT.

6. How will I receive the rewards?

Generally, your earnings will be automatically credited to your funding account at 10:00 UTC on the expiration date. Under certain circumstances, the settlement might be delayed by up to 24 hours.
