Withdrawal
To initiate a withdrawal on the Ethereum network using the Staking API, follow these steps:
- Prepare Withdrawal Transaction: construct a serialized transaction to initiate the withdrawal process for active validators, utilizing the functionalities of P2P smart contract.
- Sign and broadcast the transaction.
Request examples are provided using cURL.
Before initiating the withdrawal flow, please note that only the address set as the controller address or withdrawal address can initiate a validator exit via our smart contract. If the transaction sender doesn't match the eligible address, the validator exit will not be initiated.
1. Prepare Withdrawal Transaction
Create a serialized transaction to initiate the withdrawal process for active validators and send it as a POST request to /api/v1/eth/staking/direct/tx/withdrawal. Use https://api-test-holesky.p2p.org for testing or https://api.p2p.org for production.
Example request:
curl --request POST \
--url https://api.p2p.org/api/v1/eth/staking/direct/tx/withdrawal \
--header 'accept: application/json' \
--header 'authorization: Bearer <token>' \
--header 'content-type: application/json' \
--data '

serializeTx
— serialized unsigned transaction.to
— recipient address for this transaction.gasLimit
— maximum gas limit for this block.data
— transaction data.value
— amount this transaction is sending in Wei.chainId
— chain ID this transaction is authorized on, as specified by EIP-155.type
— EIP-2718 type of this transaction envelope.maxFeePerGas
— maximum price per unit of gas this transaction will pay for the combined EIP-1559 block's base fee and this transaction's priority fee in Wei.maxPriorityFeePerGas
— price per unit of gas in Wei, which is added to the EIP-1559 block's base fee. This added fee is used to incentivize miners to prioritize this transaction.
2. Sign and Broadcast Transaction
Use the following example of the code to sign and broadcast the withdrawal transaction.
require("dotenv").config();
const ethers = require("ethers");
async function signAndBroadcast() {
console.log("Started");
// Enter the serialized transaction
const rawTransaction = process.env.RAW_TRANSACTION;
// Enter the private key of the address used to transfer the stake amount
const privateKey = process.env.PRIVATE_KEY;
// Enter the selected RPC URL
const rpcURL = process.env.RPC_URL;
// Initialize the provider using the RPC URL
const provider = new ethers.providers.JsonRpcProvider(rpcURL);
// Initialize a new Wallet instance
const wallet = new ethers.Wallet(privateKey, provider);
// Parse the raw transaction
const tx = ethers.utils.parseTransaction(rawTransaction);
tx.nonce = await provider.getTransactionCount(wallet.address);
// Enter the max fee per gas and prirorty fee
tx.maxFeePerGas = ethers.utils.parseUnits(
process.env.MAX_FEE_PER_GAS_IN_GWEI,
"gwei"
);
tx.maxPriorityFeePerGas = ethers.utils.parseUnits(
process.env.MAX_PRIORITY_FEE_IN_GWEI,
"gwei"
);
// Sign the transaction
const signedTransaction = await wallet.signTransaction(tx);
// Send the signed transaction
const transactionResponse = await provider.sendTransaction(signedTransaction);
return transactionResponse;
}
signAndBroadcast()
.then((transactionResponse) => {
console.log(
"Transaction broadcasted, transaction hash:",
transactionResponse.hash
);
})
.catch((error) => {
console.error("Error:", error);
})
.finally(() => {
console.log("Finished");
});
