How do I unstake MaticX on Polygon?
Unstaking MaticX directly on Polygon will be supported in phase 3 which will be launched around May 18, 2022. Till then, you can swap your MaticX for Matic on QuickSwap for instant liquidity. You can learn more about how to use the QuickSwap Pools here.
There is also the additional option to bridge your MaticX to Ethereum, which takes ~2 hours, and then unstake on the Stader dApp For more information on bridging, please refer to the bridging section of these docs.
