# Withdrawing Assets

## Withdrawing Assets

You can withdraw your assets from Loopring DeFi at any time. Assets are held in smart contracts, allowing you to maintain full custody throughout the entire process.

***

### 1. Connect and Sign In

Before withdrawing, make sure:

* Your wallet is connected
* You have signed in by approving the signature request
* You are connected to the correct network where your assets are held

***

### 2. Navigate to Withdraw

Once signed in:

1. Click the **Withdraw** button at the top of the Loopring DeFi dApp.
2. Select the token you wish to withdraw.
3. Enter the amount you want to withdraw.
4. Confirm the withdrawal transaction in your wallet.

***

### 3. Gas Fees

Withdrawing assets requires a network transaction:

* On **Ethereum**, gas fees may be higher.
* On **Base** and **Taiko Alethia**, gas fees are typically lower.

Make sure you have enough ETH in your wallet to cover withdrawal fees.

***

### 4. Withdrawal Confirmation

Once the transaction is confirmed:

* Your assets will be returned to your wallet.
* You will be able to verify the transaction on the appropriate blockchain explorer.
