How to undelegate if you typed the wrong account?

avatar

Guys help! I delegated my SPT to the wrong account!hive.png
Instead of @monster-curator I typed @moster-curator and now I don't know how to undelegate because the amount delegated was not reflected in my staked SPT. In short, I don't know where my delegated SPT went!

For those who are new to these platform staking and delegating are some ways to earn passively! @monster-curator is one of the most suggested curator so why not! And this is also a reminder to always check the account you are delegating to.

I would really appreciate if you can help me. Thanks and stay safe everyone!

Just delegate 0 SPT to the same account and the undelegating should start. But be aware that this process takes 7 days, so you can delegate your SPT to the real Monter Curator account in a week.

PS: I don't know if you will get anything in return for your 113 SPT delegation, I guess you would have to delegate more to get return. But not sure, you can try.

Thank you! This really helps!

HAHA I get little bits of SPT so yeah, staking is still better than just leaving it in my wallet.

Make sure you don't misspell the account name. If it's still not working try using Hive-Engine instead. There you'll find an undelegate button which you have to click. That way it should work :=)

Well, Hive Engine says you have 68 SPT delegated, did you enter that amount when trying to undelegate?

Nope, I entered that before I delegated the 113 SPT that was lost

Okay, in that case I don't know how to help you, sorry 😐 Maybe try again later, it could be a temporary error...

The button on Hive-Engine says undelegate if that's what you mean

Yes, but if it is in splintertalk it should be undelegate? Thanks

Hey @btcsam thank you very much. So if I delegate 0 I get my SPT back? Got another question, I have 1.200 SPT in my account now, what would you do, delegating 100% to @monster-curator, or keeping myself to vote?

No problem @beffeater. Yes, just delegate 0, this will "override" the old delegation and you will see a message in your wallet that you're undelegating your SPT and how long you have to wait until you can use them again.

I would keep them and use them to vote yourself. Especially if you're active on SplinterTalk. I once delegated 2,000 SPT to monster-curator because I like the project very much but I didn't received any returns (I guess I didn't delegated enough) and I wanted to use my SPT to support content on SplinterTalk myself. So I undelegated. But what's the best decision for you is up to you...

Do you mean curation rewards? I don't know if this has changed but the last time I checked about half of your upvote value goes to the author of the post after it pays out and you'll get the other half. So if your upvote is worth 1 SPT you would get around 0.5 SPT for a 100% upvote.
