Removing Liquidity

Remove liquidity from an existing token/token liquidity pool.

Outlined below are three methods to remove liquidity from an existing pool:

• Removing HBAR/token liquidity

• Removing token/token liquidity

• Removing HBAR/token liquidity for tokens with custom fees

Contract ID: SaucerSwapV1RouterV3

A spender allowance for the router is required for the LP token.

removeLiquidity supports HTS tokens with custom fees.

Removing HBAR/Token Liquidity

Remove liquidity from an existing HBAR/token liquidity pool.

Function name: removeLiquidityETH

⛽ Recommended gas: 2,800,000 gwei (~ $0.24 USD)

Parameter Name	Description
address token	EVM address of the token paired with HBAR
uint liquidity	LP liquidity amount to remove
uint amountTokenMin	The minimum token amount to receive in its smallest unit
uint amountETHMin	The minimum HBAR amount to receive in its smallest unit
address to	EVM address to receive the tokens
uint deadline	Deadline in Unix seconds

Solidity Interface & Function Body

//IUniswapV2Router01.sol

function removeLiquidityETH(
  address token,
  uint liquidity,
  uint amountTokenMin,
  uint amountETHMin,
  address to,
  uint deadline
) external returns (uint amountToken, uint amountETH);

//UniswapV2Router02.sol

function removeLiquidityETH(
  address token,
  uint liquidity,
  uint amountTokenMin,
  uint amountETHMin,
  address to,
  uint deadline
) public virtual override ensure(deadline) returns (uint amountToken, uint amountETH) {
  safeAssociateToken(address(this), token);
  (amountToken, amountETH) = removeLiquidity( 
    token,
    whbar, 
    liquidity,
    amountTokenMin,
    amountETHMin,
    address(this), // used to be msg.sender
    deadline
  );
  safeTransferToken(token, address(this), to, amountToken);
  safeApproveToken(whbar, WHBAR, amountETH);
  IWHBAR(WHBAR).withdraw(address(this), to, amountETH);
  safeDissociateToken(address(this), token);
}

The removeLiquidityETH function operates in HBAR but derives its name from Uniswap on Ethereum. This name was kept to simplify integration for developers versed in Uniswap tools.

  );
  safeTransferToken(
    tokenB, msg.sender, pair, amountB
