# Withdrawal Delay

Due to the daily distribution of yields, Stella has implemented a strategic measure in order to mitigate the potential risks associated with a sandwich attack. To achieve this, an intentional withdrawal delay of **2 days** has been introduced on the lending side subsequent to the deposition process.&#x20;

During this period, lenders cannot withdraw or transfer assets (ysToken) for 2 days. Adding additional assets during the withdrawal delay will restart the countdown period.
