Burning OD
Burning OD means returning OD stablecoins to the reserve and receiving WBTC back.
How It Works
- You specify how much OD to return
- The app calculates how much WBTC you'll receive at the current TWAP price, minus the 1.5% fee
- You approve the transaction in OPWallet
- The reserve takes your OD and sends you WBTC
Step by Step
- Open the OD app and connect your wallet
- Select OD in the token selector
- Select Burn as the action
- Enter the OD amount you want to redeem
- Review the estimated WBTC output and fee breakdown
- Click Execute and approve in OPWallet
- Wait for the transaction to confirm
Example
If WBTC is trading at $100,000 and you burn 100 OD ($100):
| Amount | |
|---|---|
| OD returned | 100.00 ($100.00) |
| Fee (1.5%) | $1.50 |
| WBTC received | ~0.000985 WBTC ($98.50) |
Burning Is Never Blocked
Unlike minting, burning OD is always available regardless of the reserve ratio. You can always redeem your OD for WBTC. This is a core safety guarantee of the Djed protocol.
