Step-by-step guide to withdrawing deposited FIL from a multisig wallet
Last updated
Withdrawing FIL from GLIF using a multisig wallet involves a two-step proposal process to ensure security and consensus among wallet signers. This tutorial will guide you through withdrawing your deposited FIL and converting your iFIL back to FIL.
In this tutorial, you will follow these two main steps:
Approve the GLIF pool to transfer your iFIL
Withdraw from the GLIF pool
In this tutorial, a GLIF multisig wallet with deposited FIL, holding iFIL, is created. If you have not set one up yet, refer to our previous tutorial on creating a multisig wallet and depositing FIL.
Access your multisig wallet
Go to the GLIF website and navigate to the "Multisig" tab.
Ensure your wallet is connected and you are viewing your multisig wallet.
Initiate the withdrawal approval
Go to the "Tokens" section, click on the "⋯" button next to your iFIL balance. Select "Withdraw from Pool" from the dropdown menu.
Enter withdrawal amount
Input the amount of iFIL you wish to withdraw. Click "Approve" to allow the GLIF Pool to transfer your iFIL.
In the left sidebar, you will see that Step 1, 'Approve the Infinity Pool to transfer your iFIL' is highlighted.
Create the approval proposal
A prompt will appear in your connected wallet. Confirm the transaction to create the approval proposal. This step may take a few minutes as the transaction is processed on the network.
You will be able to withdraw your iFIL once the multisig proposal to approve the transfer by the Infinity Pool is approved. There is a 'View Proposal' button, click it.
You should now see the pending multisig proposal. If not, navigate to the "Multisig Proposals" section in your multisig wallet interface.
Other signers connect wallet and access the proposal
Now, the proposer's wallet should be disconnected. Other signers need to connect their wallets and approve the proposal.
Then, navigate to the "Multisig Proposals" section in your multisig wallet interface. Locate the pending proposal, created by the proposer (another wallet).
Other signers approve the proposal
After selecting the proposal, click 'Approve Proposal' and confirm the approval in the wallet prompt.
Each signer's wallet must have a small amount of FIL to cover the gas fee.
Confirmed approval
Once the required number of signers have approved, the approval transaction will be executed.If you don't see immediate updates, try refreshing the page or reconnecting your wallet after a few minutes.
You can check the transaction details on the 'Transactions' page at the bottom of the Multisig page, where the method column will display 'Approve.'
After completing Step 1, the Infinity Pool is now allowed to transfer the specified amount of iFIL entered in Step 1. You should see a small checkmark next to 'Approve the Infinity Pool to transfer your iFIL". Then, you can proceed to Step 2 to initiate the withdrawal!
If you need to withdraw more than the previously approved amount, you will need to return to Step 1.
Initiate the withdrawal
Return to the "Tokens" section in your multisig wallet. Click on the "⋯" button next to your iFIL balance and select "Withdraw from Pool" again.
Confirm withdrawal
You will now see step 2, "Withdraw from the Infinity Pool". Confirm the details and click "Withdraw".
Create another withdrawal proposal
Confirm the transaction in the wallet to create the proposal.
Then, a new multisig proposal will be created for the withdrawal transaction. You can check the details of this proposal in the "Multisig proposals" section.
Approve the Withdrawal Proposal
Now, similar to step 1, the proposer's wallet should be disconnected. Other signers need to connect their wallets and approve the proposal.
Then, navigate to the "Multisig Proposals" section in your multisig wallet interface. Locate the pending proposal, created by the proposer's wallet. Click "Approve proposal" and confirm the approval in the other signers' wallets.
Check the transactions
Once the required number of signers have approved, the transaction will be executed. Please wait if you cannot see the transaction immediately, as it may take a few minutes for it to be confirmed on the network.
You can check the transaction details in the "Transactions" section at the bottom of the multisig page.
Complete the Withdrawal
Once the required approvals are obtained, the withdrawal transaction will be executed. Your iFIL will be converted back to FIL and deposited to your multisig wallet. Check the "Filecoin Balance" section to confirm your updated FIL balance.
Congratulations! You have successfully withdrawn your deposited FIL from GLIF using your multisig wallet.
