How Deposits Work

Understand the full deposit lifecycle — from sending crypto to seeing it credited in your account.

What Is a Deposit?

A deposit is when you send cryptocurrency from an external wallet to your XamanProtocol deposit address. Once received and reviewed, the funds are credited to your account balance and become available for staking.

The Deposit Lifecycle

Step 1 — You Send Funds

You send XRP or XLM from your personal wallet to your unique XamanProtocol deposit address. Include the required memo/destination tag so we can identify your transaction.

Step 2 — Transaction Detected

Our system monitors the blockchain and detects your incoming transaction. A deposit record is created in your account with status Pending.

Step 3 — Admin Review

Our team verifies the transaction on-chain, confirms the amount, and checks that the correct memo/destination tag was included. This typically takes 1–24 hours.

Step 4 — Approved & Credited

Once approved, your account balance is updated and your deposit shows as Active. The funds are now available for staking or withdrawal.

Why Deposits Require Review

Manual review allows us to:

  • Verify the transaction is genuine and confirmed on-chain
  • Ensure the correct memo/destination tag was used (so we can attribute the deposit to your account)
  • Flag any suspicious or unusually large transactions for compliance review
  • Prevent processing errors that could result in misdirected funds

Processing Times

  • XRP deposits: 1–6 hours in most cases. The XRP Ledger confirms in 3–5 seconds, but admin review adds processing time.
  • XLM deposits: 1–6 hours. Stellar settles in 5 seconds but requires review.
  • Weekends/Holidays: Up to 24 hours during periods of reduced staffing.
  • Large deposits: May require additional verification and take up to 48 hours.

What Happens If My Memo Is Missing?

If you send a deposit without the required memo or destination tag, we cannot automatically attribute the transaction to your account. In this case:

  1. Contact support with your transaction hash (TXID) and the amount sent.
  2. Our team will manually look up the transaction and credit your account.
  3. This process may take additional time — always include your memo to avoid delays.

Frequently Asked Questions

My deposit is still Pending after 24 hours — what should I do?+
First, verify your transaction hash on the blockchain explorer to confirm the transaction went through. Then contact support with your transaction hash, amount, and timestamp. Do not send duplicate transactions.
Can I cancel a deposit after I've sent the transaction?+
No. Once a blockchain transaction is confirmed, it cannot be reversed. If you send funds by mistake, contact support immediately — we will work to resolve the situation.
What is a transaction hash (TXID)?+
A transaction hash is a unique identifier for your blockchain transaction, like a receipt number. You can find it in your sending wallet's transaction history. It lets us look up your transaction on the public blockchain explorer.
Is there a minimum deposit amount?+
Minimum deposit amounts are displayed on the Deposit page for each asset. Amounts below the minimum will still be received but may not be credited after fees.
Do deposits earn while they are Pending?+
No. Funds only earn staking rewards once they are credited to your account (status: Active) and you open a staking position.
Can I deposit multiple times?+
Yes. You can make multiple deposits at any time. Each deposit is processed separately.
Are deposits insured?+
Platform operations are managed with strict security practices. Asset insurance is not currently provided. Only deposit amounts you are comfortable with given the inherent risks of digital assets.
