How Withdrawals Are Processed For Concrete DeFi USDT
The Concrete DeFi USDT vault deploys deposits into yield-generating strategies that require time to unwind. To protect APY for all depositors while still offering reasonable liquidity, withdrawals are processed through a scheduled queue.
Standard Timing
Withdrawals typically take between 3.5 and 7 days, depending on when you submit your request and on available liquidity (see below). They're processed twice weekly on a fixed schedule (all times UTC):
| Request submitted between | Claimable from |
|---|---|
| Monday 8:10 PM – Thursday 8:10 PM | Following Monday, 8:00 AM |
| Thursday 8:10 PM – Monday 8:10 PM | Following Thursday, 8:00 AM |
Liquidity Buffer and Extended Queues
Up to 10% of the vault's TVL is available for withdrawals each cycle. If requests exceed this threshold, the queue extends beyond 7 days and withdrawals are processed in the order they were requested (FIFO). During periods of high demand, your wait may be longer than the standard schedule.
How to Check Your Next Withdrawal Date
To see when your withdrawal will be available:
- Navigate to the Withdrawal tab in the app.
- Enter a withdrawal amount.
- The expected date will be displayed.
The app will always reflect the next upcoming batch date.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do my deposits continue earning yield while in the queue? Yes. Your position continues to earn yield until your withdrawal is processed.
Can I cancel a withdrawal request? Yes, but only before processing has begun. Once your request enters processing at the scheduled cutoff, it can no longer be cancelled.
