# How to redeem $BITU

Users can **redeem** $*BITU* through our UI or via our API. Using the UI, the user workflow to **redeem** $BITU is as follows:

* Step 1: Log into the dApp page using your wallet.
* Step 2: Select the collateral position you have (e.g., BTCB) and enter the amount of $BITU you want to burn.

* Step 3: Adjust the collateral ratio of the remaining assets and view the amount of the collateral assets you want to receive.

* Step 4: Click the "Redeem" button. This action will prompt your selected wallet to pop up. Confirm the transaction, and it will be submitted to the blockchain.

After the transaction is successful, users will have redeemed their collateral. However, collateral assets can only be withdrawn after the cooldown period has ended.
