Sell a Lock to Furnace (Sell now)
Where this fits: Furnace exit in the CLAIM stream · Full guide: The Furnace
Goal: Sell a veCLAIM lock immediately for liquid CLAIM.
Before you sell
Selling now is the fastest way to get liquid CLAIM, but it ends the lock’s royalty power. If you don’t need immediate liquidity, consider extending, enabling AutoMax, or compounding instead.
- Fast (when trading is enabled)
- Protocol-quoted (usually at a discount vs principal)
- Slippage + short deadline protect against stale execution
When to use
Good for: quick liquidity, fast exit Not ideal for: targeting a specific payout (use a Market listing instead)
Flow
Time
3–10 min
You need
- veCLAIM lock NFT in wallet
- ETH for gas
If the lock is listed on Market, Sell now will auto-delist it first.
Steps
- Open Furnace from the navigation bar → select Sell Now
- Select the lock to sell
- Review:
- Estimated payout (live quote)
- Spread / haircut
- Choose slippage (the app derives your minimum payout floor)
- Confirm in wallet
A short anti-stale deadline in the Sell now flow prevents stale execution.
Watch out: Quotes change quickly. Refresh and review the estimated payout right before confirming. If the quote drops below your minimum payout, the transaction reverts and you keep your lock.
Success
- CLAIM in wallet
- Lock NFT burned
Notes
- AutoMax locks have a larger spread (treated as maximum remaining time).
