Step 8: Restake (Optional)

If you already staked and want to restake:

1. If users unstake their staked amount, they must withdraw the staked tokens and ensure:

• Withdraw amount = 0
• Only then, user can restake

2. When you restake:

• If you have any pending Withdraw Profit, it will be automatically added to your wallet.
• The new stake will start with updated amount + profit, and fresh rewards calculation begins.

Check: The website should confirm your restake, and your new staked amount should include the profit. If not, try restaking again.
