Redeeming & Liquidity
How and When You Can Withdraw
Fount's investment products are designed to mirror traditional fund mechanics - with scheduled redemption cycles and liquidity gates based on the underlying asset class.
When you're ready to exit your position, Fount provides a clear, secure path to redemption.
Redemption Process: Step by Step
1. Submit Withdrawal Request
Log in to the Fount app and submit a redemption intent for your tRWA tokens.
2. Join the Redemption Queue
Your request enters the queue for the next eligible redemption window, which varies by strategy.
3. Underlying Assets Settled Off-Chain
Yield Curators unwind a portion of the portfolio and return capital in fiat.
4. Fiat Converted Back to Crypto
Fiat is converted into USDC or BTC via regulated partners and bridged on-chain.
5. Receive Payout
Once settlement is complete, you burn your tRWA token and receive the corresponding value in USDC or BTC.

⚠️ Variable Timelines
These timelines may vary based on market conditions, strategy performance, and vault inflows/outflows.
What Impacts Redemption Speed?
Several factors affect how quickly your funds are returned:
Strategy liquidity: Treasuries are liquid; private credit is not
Redemption volume: Large outflows may trigger gates
Redemption window: Some vaults process requests weekly or monthly
Lock-up period: Certain vaults enforce a minimum holding period
📊 Full Transparency
You'll always see the next redemption window and estimated payout time before confirming your withdrawal.
Is There a Lock-Up Period?
Yes. Some strategies require your funds to remain invested for a minimum duration to match the liquidity and structure of the underlying assets.
Lock-ups vary by vault - typically 15 to 90 days
During this time, redemptions cannot be initiated
After the lock-up expires, you may redeem during the next window
