How to redeem?

This guide explains how to redeem iSEI back to SEI. There are two available methods.

Method 1: YeiSwap Swap on a DEX (fastest, depends on liquidity)

Make sure to have Sei token in your wallet to pay for the transaction.

Visit YeiSwap to convert assets into SEI directly on Sei.

  • Go to YeiSwap.

  • Connect your wallet.

  • Select iSEI → SEI.

  • Review the rate and confirm the swap.

  • Verify the SEI amount in your wallet.

Method 2: Silo Unbond and redeem on Silo (official method, 21 day unbonding period)

Make sure to have Sei token in your wallet to pay for the transaction.

If swapping is not possible, or if the swap price impact is too large, you can redeem iSEI through Silo’s native unbonding process.

Submit withdrawal request and redeem on Silo.

  • Visit the Silo interface.

  • Connect your wallet holding iSEI.

  • Request the amount of iSEI you wish to unbond.

  • Confirm the redemption.

  • Your SEI will unlock after the 21 day unbonding period.

  • Claim once the waiting period ends.
