## :snowflake: SNOWSTORM.DEPOSIT 

* Select the amount of Matic to deposit into SnowStorm
* Approve the Snow Fee through Metamask (10 SN0W per deposit)

{% hint style="info" %}
*You have to approve the Snow Fee for EACH deposit*
{% endhint %}

* Once the fee is approved, Metamask will prompt another transaction for the DEPOSIT and a unique NOTE will be generated for you. 

  \
  \*DO NOT SHARE THIS NOTE WITH ANYONE\*

{% hint style="warning" %}
**SAVE THIS NOTE!** We will not be able to recover this note for you if you lose it. 
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
We recommend at least 5 GWEI for gas for the DEPOSIT transaction
{% endhint %}

* Confirm that your transaction goes through

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Your NOTE will only be valid if the deposit is successful**
{% endhint %}

## :snowflake: SNOWSTORM.WITHDRAW

![](/files/-MfFIaTu-8tGYHKjfbnS)

### STORM.BALANCE

The Storm.Balance window shows you the amount of MATIC in each of the SnowStorm contracts at that moment. 

In the picture above, there's 0.3 MATIC in the Storm-0.1 contract and 100 MATIC in the Storm-100 contract. This means there are 3 different deposits of 0.1 MATIC and only 1 deposit of 100 MATIC in SnowStorm at that moment. 

Ideally, you want to withdraw at a time when there are more deposits. 

{% hint style="success" %}
**Ideal Withdrawal Conditions for Privacy:** 

* Use a different computer
* Use a VPN
* New Recipient Address w/ no prior transactions
* Withdraw several days after deposit 
* Withdraw when Storm.Balance is high
  {% endhint %}

## Withdraw

* Enter your **NOTE** and a **RECIPIENT ADDRESS** into the input boxes

{% hint style="info" %}
The recipient address should be an address with no linked transactions with the address you deposited from
{% endhint %}

* Click '**WITHDRAW**' 
* Wait until the transaction is confirmed. That's it! 

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Do not click WITHDRAW multiple times**
{% endhint %}

![](/files/-MfFVb_OVD_isljIorqE)

{% hint style="info" %}
If the withdrawal times out, the transaction may still be mined. Monitor the recipient address' MATIC balance for a while before trying to withdraw again. 

**Note:** Withdrawing MATIC does not emit an event, so there won't be a transaction posted on PolygonScan or Metamask. Instead, you have to monitor changes in the MATIC balance.
