# Restaking mechanism

<figure><img src="/files/pbVmPjezTGUpXTW1bcjZ" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

1. **User Deposits LSDs and Receives Dorado Bounty Token (DORAB):**
   * Users who hold LSDs may choose to restake their assets by depositing them into the restaking contract on Arbitrum.
   * Upon deposit, users receive Dorado Bounty Tokens (DORAB) representing their restaked assets.
2. **Deposit Contract on Arbitrum:**
   * The restaking contract on Arbitrum manages the restaking process and interacts with the deposit contract on Arbitrum to hold the restaked assets securely.
3. **Withdraw (Once Available):**
   * Similar to the staking process, users can initiate a withdrawal transaction once the restaking period is complete or withdrawal conditions are met.
   * The withdrawal process involves burning the DORAB tokens, and users receive their LSDs or staked assets, along with any accrued rewards or interest.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://dorado.gitbook.io/dorado-docs/ecosystem/staking-and-restaking-mechanism/restaking-mechanism.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
