# redeemConduit

Redeems shares from a conduit. Requires a `WalletClient` to sign and send the transaction.

:::info
This action needs no approval and sends a single transaction. The conduit burns the caller's shares through an internal transfer, which never goes through `transferFrom`.
:::

## Import

```ts
import { redeemConduit } from '@railnetorg/railnet-sdk'
```

## Usage

```ts
import { createWalletClient, http } from 'viem'
import { base } from 'viem/chains'
import { redeemConduit } from '@railnetorg/railnet-sdk'

const walletClient = createWalletClient({
  chain: base,
  transport: http(),
})

const hash = await redeemConduit(walletClient, {
  conduit: '0xA0Cf798816D4b9b9866b5330EEa46a18382f251e',
  shares: 500000000000000000n,
  account: '0xd2135CfB216b74109775236E36d4b433F1DF507B',
