What can you do with your PTB?

If you currently hold PTB in your Bitvavo balance, you have four options:

1. Withdraw your balance to your Bitvavo Web3 wallet: You can also hold this asset in your Web3 wallet, a decentralized custody and trading environment.

   How it works: create your Web3 wallet in the Bitvavo mobile app. Your Web3 wallet addresses are then added automatically to your Bitvavo address book, labeled "Web3 wallet" followed by the network. Start a withdrawal from your Bitvavo account and select that address. For more detailed instructions, please read:

   • How to withdraw crypto from your Bitvavo account

   Good to know:

   • The Web3 wallet is self-custodial and is provided by Vavo Web3 Limited. It is not a regulated service, so MiCA protections may not apply.
   • You control the wallet and its private key. Bitvavo doesn’t hold your key and can’t reverse transactions.
   • Always select the correct network when you withdraw. Using the wrong network can mean losing your balance permanently.
   • A network fee applies to the withdrawal, which is shown before you confirm.
   • The delisting on Bitvavo does not change. You can’t deposit this asset back to your Bitvavo account after the deposit deadline.
2. Sell your tokens: You can sell your PTB for EUR until Friday, November 6, 2026, at 14:00 CET.
3. Withdraw your tokens: You can transfer your PTB to an external wallet or another exchange until Friday, November 6, 2026, at 15:00 CET.
4. Keep your tokens for automatic conversion: If you take no action, Bitvavo will automatically convert your remaining PTB balance to EUR on or before Tuesday, November 17, 2026.
