Why can't I withdraw from GMX?
Your GMX Account balance can be withdrawn to any supported chain, regardless of where you deposited. Withdrawal tokens are USDC, USDT and ETH on Arbitrum and Ethereum, with other chains offering a subset; submitted withdrawals show in Transfer history. GMX documents 4 reasons a withdrawal can be delayed or held, listed below.
Checked 2026-10-17 · 2 sources- Fee: Same-chain withdrawals pay gas in ETH from your wallet; cross-chain withdrawals pay a bridge fee.
- Minimum: A minimum receive amount applies after bridge fees.
- Bridging is limited by Stargate liquidity caps.
- A same-chain withdrawal is blocked if your wallet lacks enough ETH for gas.
- A cross-chain withdrawal can fail if the bridge fee rises before it executes; funds stay in your GMX Account and you can retry.
- The button is disabled if the amount you would receive after bridge fees is below the minimum.
- Anyone offering to "recover" funds for a fee, or asking for your login or seed phrase, is running a scam.
